Häagen-Dazs - FAQ (2024)

Found in Ecuador, Brazil, and the Ivory Coast, the finest ruby cocoa beans from across the world are infused into our Special Edition bars. The ruby hue is released during the bean's unique fermentation process, enhancing the indulgence with a flush of berry brightness. Only under unique climate conditions will cocoa plants produce the ruby cocoa beans, making our Ruby bars a rare treat.

Currently, all of our cartons are 100% recyclable and we're committed to making the remainder of our packaging fully recyclable or reusable by 2025. While there is still work to be done, there has been a considerable amount of progress in ensuring that we find the right balance between the adequate and minimal amount of plastics used to package our products safely, as well as the recovery of plastic at the end of its useful life.

A key sustainability initiative of the Häagen-Dazs production team is our guarantee that zero waste will go to landfill when crafting our ice cream. Essentially, we do not send any waste from our London, Ontario factory to landfill. We have an extensive recycling program, and whatever food waste does not get composted, is sent to local farms.
