Supervalu Employees Choose Private-Label Ice Cream Flavors

MINNEAPOLIS — Twisted Pretzel, Red Velvet Cake and Italian Kiss are the latest ice cream flavors in Supervalu’s private-label line-up.

The varieties were the winning entries in the “Stone Ridge Creamery Name Your Dream Flavor Sweepstakes,” open to Supervalu employees.

The winners are Tom Lindberg, retail technology specialist, Supervalu; Amy Youngblood, senior business support specialist, Supervalu; and Joe Agrusa, direct-store-delivery receiver at Albertsons' Chula Vista, Calif. store.

In addition to receiving a $500 gift card and free ice cream for a year, winners will have their caricature featured on their flavor's 32-ounce carton, which retails for $3.99.

Lindberg’s Twisted Pretzel includes sea salt-infused caramel and dark chocolate-coated pretzel pieces in vanilla ice cream. Youngblood's Red Velvet Cake is red in color and infused with flavors of chocolate and cream cheese frosting. While Agrusa’s Italian Kiss is a blend of chocolate ice cream, hazelnut and dark chocolate chunks, reminiscent of a treat he enjoyed as a child growing up in Italy.
