Connoisseur Gourmet Ice Cream and Koko Black, join forces to deliver a range of indulgent ice cream creations

Connoisseur Gourmet Ice Cream have launched a decadent new collection of ice creams in collaboration with artisan chocolatier Koko Black in time for World Dessert Day. 

Australia’s most-loved ice cream brand Connoisseur Gourmet Ice Cream has partnered with artisan chocolatier Koko Black to turn their iconic chocolate into a decadent new ice cream range in time for World Dessert Day on Thursday October 14.

Crafted using creative ingredient combinations designed for the Australian palate, the new Connoisseur and Koko Black collaboration comes in two indulgent flavours for the ultimate luxurious taste experience. The range features Australia’s number one best-selling premium vanilla ice cream, dipped in Koko Black’s signature 54% dark chocolate. It’s the first time dessert lovers will be able to taste Koko Black’s premium crafted chocolate in an ice cream in two indulgent flavours:

Connoisseur Classic Vanilla with Koko Black Premium Crafted Chocolate Stick - RRP$8.40 (4 pack), $4.40 (1 stick). Connoisseur's smooth classic vanilla ice cream coated in Koko Black’s 54% dark chocolate.

Connoisseur Honeycomb with Koko Black Premium Crafted Chocolate Stick - RRP$8.40 (4 pack) Honeycomb ice cream coated in Koko Black’s signature Tasmanian Leatherwood Honeycomb pieces in 54% dark chocolate.

Connoisseur Gourmet Ice Cream Marketing Manager Eileen Whitta says “Connoisseur was thrilled to partner with Australia’s finest chocolatier to create a truly immersive sensory experience for ice cream lovers in time for World Dessert Day. The flavour pairings were matched to appeal to the Australian palate showcasing quality local ingredients to thrill the senses.”

Connoisseur’s team of culinary creators worked closely with Koko Black and their Head Chocolatier, Remco Brigou to design the indulgent new ice cream collection, leaning on his many years as a chocolatier to find the perfect balance of flavours.

Brigou says, “The key to marrying the two decadent brands together was for it to feel like a true collaboration of Australia’s finest local ingredients. The chocolate coating is crafted from a premium selection of our Koko Black chocolate and has been expertly paired with Connoisseur’s much loved vanilla ice cream for a truly indulgent experience.”

The Connoisseur with Koko Black Collection is available from leading convenience and grocery stores nationally from 11 October. RRP $8.40 for a multipack of 4 sticks and $4.40 for a single loose pack stick. Connoisseur is Australia’s number one ice cream brand, with an extensive range of flavours, which you can find here.
