Breyers Double Churn Banana Cream Pie Ice Cream

This was the second flavour that I tried out of the three and it was one that I was pretty excited for. I thought the ice cream flavour itself was really, really good. I didn't find it too rich and loved the mix of the grahm flavour throughout each bite. And I really liked how it wasn't grahm pieces it was kind of like a ribbon so you pretty much taste it with every spoonfull. I didn't find it as creamy as the cheesecake flavour, but you could really taste the banana, which I thought was really good because I think that when trying to bring out fruit flavours in ice cream it can really be a hit or miss.
Overall, I found it enjoyable. We ate it for dessert one night and everyone seemed to really like it and even asked for seconds :)

A huge thanks to Chick Advisor! Loved the kit.

I have to say that this was my favourite out of the three flavours I tried, and that means a lot because i HATE banana. The banana flavour is very mild and blends nicely with the cream flavour and graham crumb swirls. I really liked that they graham part of the ice cream still had a bit of crunch and was not completely smooth and added an extra texture to the creamy ice cream. I also liked that the ice cream as a whole was not sickeningly sweet as some other "dessert" flavour ice cream is.

I would definatly buy this ice cream again (even at the $6.99 price) and definitely recommend it.

I get this HUGE package in the mail, I almost didn't want to open it because I didn't order anything lately. So when I open it, out comes this neat package from Breyer's....

It was so cute I HAD to take pictures, and I was dying to see what was inside this box. At first I was like "this can't be the ice cream in here, they must be crazy"....turns out that they gave me three bowls and spoons so I can share with friends and family...what a wicked idea

The Banana Cream Pie was ON POINT ....I can say that this one is my favourite out of the three. You know the graham pieces that go on the bottom of cheesecakes? Well it's in this ice cream (come to think of it, they should have put that graham pieces in the Chocolate Cheesecake ice cream)

The only problem is that I'm not sure if this ice cream is worth the $6.99...it should be cheaper

First of all, I was very impressed with the package that arrived from Breyers. It was a really lovely gesture for them to send 3 little ice cream bowls and spoons.

Since I'm lacking in freezer space I decided to throw an ice cream party so my friends could help me test out the 3 ice cream flavours.

I have to say, this flavour was the least desired by my friends out of the three that we tested. The flavour was better than we expected, although not everyone was sold on the idea of banana cream pie ice cream. I don't think that this will become a best seller, but it's certainly an option when you want something different!

We all felt that $8 was a bit much for the tub of ice cream, and more than once people remarked "what's with the double churn thing?" It seemed to raise people's expectations for the quality of ice cream, and while it was quite creamy, it didn't seem all that different from other ice cream we've eaten.

I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this flavour as I find most banana flavoured foods (other than bananas) end up tasting like the banana flavoured penicillin I took as a kid.

That is why I am happy to say that I really enjoyed this flavour. It tastes exactly like a Banana Cream Pie except in ice cream form which makes it so much better. It was really smooth and full of flavour. To make it even better, give yourself one scoop of the Dark Chocolate Velvet and one scoop of the Banana Cream Pie and you're in heaven and eat them together. The mix of the banana and chocolate is amazing. I think this would also go well with chocolate cake.

Like the other flavours, I found that this one also melted at a more rapid pace than other ice creams.

I love this ice cream very much. It really tastes like banana and so smooth going down my throat.I ate the whold thing myself. Sometimes when I eat ice cream,the taste goes away after a few bites,but the taste from this ice cream lasts every spoonful.

I tested this product through the review club. Or atleast I tasted it two or three times.

Honestly, I didn't really like this ice cream. I've tried banana flavoured popsicles before, but not ice cream. I was curious to try it, but I must say I was disappointed.

What I liked: The banana flavour was alright. It really did taste like I was eating a fresh banana, but it was so creamy and the taste was a bit too strong.

What I didn't like: I really didn't like the waffer or what ever the crunchy substance was. I found it made the ice cream feel gritty. Along with the other two ice creams (Dark Chocolate Velvet and Chocolate Cheesec Cake) the ice cream melted really fast.

All in all, I wouldn't really recommend this ice cream except for the use in smoothies. My brother didn't mind the ice cream, so I suggested he try it in a smoothie and he seemed to like it. Other than that though, for the price that it is, honestly, I would just walk on by.

The only things banana I like are the fruit and banana bread...so I really wasn't feeling this flavor...the flavor was too overpowering and I didn't like the bits of pie crust in it either...
Even my boyfriend's mother who loves banana & ice cream, didn't like the two together.

I have to admit I was leery to try this because banana cream pie is my favorite pie. But I was not disappointed! The banana flavor was not overpowering and this ice cream did the trick :) I found the texture a little weird at first, but got used to it after a few bites and realizing that it was meant to be like the pie crust. I'll likely buy it again, but definitely not as often as the chocolate!

I don't really like bananas (or even most banana-flavoured things), but I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised by this ice cream. I kind of thought that it would end up being more 'for guests', but I've eaten almost all of it myself in the end. What I like best is that the banana flavour is 'authentic', and does not have that 'manufactured banana' flavour (you know what I'm talking about!). Having said that, however, it's not overpowering, which I think is part of the reason that I - as a non-banana-lover in general - am really enjoying this ice cream. The nice light/mild banana flavour is quite refreshing for summer. And the good flavour is paired with a really nice texture (true to other Breyers Double Churned ice creams) that's wonderful on the tongue - absolutely no ice crystals or 'graininess' to this one. I would recommend it (and have already done so) for sure - even to someone who doesn't think she likes bananas!
