S'mores are a favorite and nostalgic summertime, campfire snack. And while it's hard to beat the experience of roasting marshmallows over an open fire, s'mores don't have to be a once a year treat. Dessert and snack brands have come out with a diverse list of s'mores flavored treat that'll satisfy your craving year round, no campfire necessary. In fact, the best s'mores-flavored product Tasting Table's taste tester sampled is an ice cream flavor from the iconic Ben & Jerry's brand.
Who better to come up with a creative frozen take on s'mores than Ben & Jerry's? Known for some of the most unique and over-the-top ice cream flavors, our taste tester pitted the brand's Gimme S'more! Toasted Marshmallow ice cream up against solid snacks, and none of them came close in the flavor, texture, or ingenuity. Ben & Jerry's Gimme S'more! Toasted Marshmallow ice cream features a toasted marshmallow base full of chocolate cookie, graham cracker swirls, melt-in-your mouth fudge.
According to our taste tester, all of the flavors and textures went together perfectly — assimilating the flavor of s'mores you know and love, but in the most inventive and unique way. They got the gritty crunch of graham cracker along with well-distributed fudge flecks, while the toasted marshmallow ice cream was as creamy as could be. Each element was perfectly executed, making the sum of its parts both decadent and nostalgic.

Most importantly of all, said another customer, "Each bite really captures that classic campfire smores taste."
