Ultra-premium ice cream company Serendipity Brands has launched a new pint, Central Perk Almond Fudge, inspired by the TV show Friends.  Serendipity has partnered with Warner Bros Consumer Products to release four pints inspired by 'fan-favourite' series and films. The first in the line, inspired by Friends, features chocolate covered almonds and fudge swirls, creating a mocha almond ice cream.  Other releases will include flavours inspired by The Goonies (available this month), Caddyshack and A Christmas Story.  "Friends is a pop culture classic that we couldn't be more thrilled to create a special flavour for! Our Central Perk Almond Fudge flavour is nostalgia in a pint that makes you feel like you're with your six best friends indulging in a sweet treat at a coffee shop," said Sal Pesce, president and COO of Serendipity Brands. All flavours will be available at the suggested RRP of $5.99 in local supermarkets, convenience stores and other food retailers across the country and online.
