Cool Yorkshire Collaboration

Written by Alyson Jackson

Beacon Farm, an ice cream producer in Whitby, North Yorkshire, has been using Botham's Double Chocolate Biscuits to make their Cookies N Cream Ice Cream for years. It certainly is a cool collaboration between two much-loved Yorkshire producers, and the result is a deliciously creamy but crunchy dairy ice cream made entirely in Whitby!

From bakery to farm to cone, how do they make the Cookies N Cream magic happen? Let's take a look behind the scenes...

In a heatwave, we couldn't stop there so we took a tub of Cookies N Cream Ice Cream and packets of Botham's biscuits in various flavours into our Finishing Room and challenged them to make ice cream biscuit sandwiches. Oh boy, the results were divine and they are super easy to make at home!
