(KNGT-FM) - As you're making your way to the store to gather everything for the Fourth of July cookout, be sure to pick up some Ice Cream, and it looks like we've got a new one to try out! It's always a good day when Blue Bell drops a new Ice Cream Flavor, and on Thursday Morning, they did just that...

Growing up, anytime we were on the road as a family and we were anywhere near Lafayette, Louisiana, we HAD to stop off in Scott at the Candyland Cottage & Ice Cream Shoppe. That place was like HEAVEN for me as a kid, and if we're being honest, I still stop in every once and a while to this day.

Blue Bell Creameries, founded in 1907 in Brenham, Texas, has been a staple in the ice cream world for over a century. Despite being sold in only 23 states, it remains one of the nation’s top-selling ice cream brands. The company takes pride in its high-quality products and offers over 40 flavors alongside frozen snacks and health-conscious options.

There are a ton of ice cream companies that claim to have the best ice cream, but if you're here in the South, especially here in Louisiana and Texas, we're choosing Blue Bell Ice Cream EVERY chance we get! Blue Bell has all sorts of flavors and is known for its classics like Homemade Vanilla, Cookies ’n Cream, and Dutch Chocolate. Recently, they brought back fan favorites like Groom’s Cake and Cookie Cake, and introduced fun new flavors like Banana Fudge and Strawberry Toaster Pastry.
