COLUMBUS – A new ice cream flavor developed by Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams to benefit singer Dolly Parton’s children’s books charity is back on sale a week after a flurry of orders froze the company’s website.
Pints of Strawberry Pretzel Pie pints will be available for online sale only starting at noon Thursday when customers can order some of the 5,000 remaining pints from the first production run of the flavor on a first-come-first-serve basis, according to a tweet on the company’s Twitter feed..
Starting at 3:00 p.m., the company will accept pre-orders for the next batch of the ice cream, which is expected to ship in August.
Sales of the salty pretzel streusel-cream cheese ice cream-strawberry sauce blend will benefit Parton’s Imagination Library, a program that provides free books to children.
