Hudsonville Ice Cream's New Delight: Dirt Cake Ice Cream

HOLLAND, Michigan - Get ready to refresh your freezer, as Hudsonville Ice Cream introduces a brand-new flavor for summer 2026: Dirt Cake Ice Cream! This delightful new treat combines the classic taste of dirt cake with the exciting twist of chewy gummi worms, all within a creamy, dreamy ice cream base.

A Sweet Collaboration

In a fantastic collaboration with Albanese World’s Best® Gummies, Hudsonville Ice Cream has launched a product that promises to change the way we indulge in ice cream. The new Dirt Cake Ice Cream features a rich vanilla and chocolate pudding flavor fused with real cream-filled chocolate cookie pieces and the renowned Gummi Chiller Worms® from Albanese. What sets these gummy worms apart is their special formulation that allows them to retain their chewy texture even after freezing, providing an experience that is both nostalgic and novel.

Why Dirt Cake Ice Cream?

Dirt cake has always been a beloved dessert, crafted from layers of chocolate pudding, crushed cookies, and gummi worms, evoking memories of childhood parties and backyard gatherings. Hudsonville Ice Cream sought to reinvent this beloved classic, and according to Joel Ancrile, the brand lead for Hudsonville Ice Cream, their goal was to create a product that surprises and delights.

"Making great ice cream involves experimenting with flavors and mix-ins that catch people off guard in a delightful way," he explains. "This collaboration allows us to put a unique spin on a dessert that people already cherish."

The Magic of Chewy Gummies

Bethany Albanese, Co-President of Albanese Confectionery, shares the excitement surrounding this innovative partnership. Since they pioneered the chiller technology in 2010, which guarantees that gummies maintain their flavor and texture in ice cream, Albanese has become synonymous with quality and creativity in the confectionery world.

"Collaborating with a like-minded family-owned business like Hudsonville lets us take our innovative ideas to new heights," she notes, highlighting their shared commitment to quality and consumer enjoyment.
