Despite the waning popularity of NFTs, Snoop Dogg's Dr. Bombay brand, featuring his cartoon ape NFT avatar, continues to thrive. The ice cream brand recently released its first new flavor of 2024, Strawberry Cream Dream, which combines strawberry sherbet, vanilla ice cream, and golden sandwich cookies.
Snoop Dogg's Dr. Bombay Ice Cream Empire Expands with Strawberry Cream Dream
Dr. Bombay Ice Cream, the brainchild of legendary rapper Snoop Dogg, continues to thrive, unveiling its inaugural flavor of 2024: Strawberry Cream Dream.
Launched under parent company Bosslady Foods in the summer of 2022, Dr. Bombay Ice Cream has rapidly gained traction, offering a range of seven initial flavors: Bonus Track Brownie, Cocoa Cream Cookie Dream, Iced Out Orange Cream, Rollin' in the Dough, S'more Vibes, Syrupy Waffle Sundaze, and Tropical Sherbet Swizzle, with the subsequent addition of Birthday Party to the lineup.
Embracing the brand's iconic mascot, the Bored Ape drawing Dr. Bombay, Snoop Dogg has seamlessly integrated the character into the ice cream venture, showcasing its image through collaborations with Skechers shoes, an MTV Video Music Awards performance with Eminem, and a dedicated line of Dr. Bombay ice creams.
"Ice cream is more than just a snack to me; it's a way to chill, relax, and get happy," said Snoop Dogg at the brand's inception. "Fans will also notice that my sidekick, Dr. Bombay is the name, face, and persona of this brand. That's because he's like a son to me and you always want your kids to be more successful than you are."
Now, as Dr. Bombay Ice Cream enters the new year, it unveils its latest flavor creation: Strawberry Cream Dream. This delectable concoction harmonizes strawberry sherbet with creamy vanilla ice cream, swirling in strawberry jam and decadent golden sandwich cookie pieces. The flavor's release is further enhanced by its association with Death Row Records, the iconic label co-founded by Dr. Dre, which played a pivotal role in the launch of Snoop Dogg's career with the seminal albums "Doggystyle" and "The Doggfather."
According to the company, Strawberry Cream Dream marks the first in a trio of new flavors slated for release in 2024. Currently, Dr. Bombay Ice Cream is widely accessible at major supermarkets and retailers including Albertsons, Kroger, Publix, Ralphs Market, Safeway, and Walmart, among others. Customers can also conveniently order online through Gopuff. For those seeking specific flavor availability, the Dr. Bombay website provides a comprehensive retailer locator tool.
While Dr. Bombay Ice Cream has carved a unique niche in the crowded ice cream market, it has successfully bypassed the once-prevalent hype surrounding NFTs and cartoon apes. As the brand continues to grow, shoppers can indulge in its delectable offerings without having to navigate the complexities of digital art or blockchain technology.
