Julie’s Organic Ice Cream Gets Elegant Rebrand, New Flavors

– Category Pioneer Deepens Long-Standing Commitment to Organic –

EUGENE, Ore.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The brand that established the organic ice cream category in 1998,
Julie’s Organic, is reclaiming its leadership position with an elegant
rebrand and fresh new line of super premium organic pints. Ripe
strawberries, luscious blackberries, dark chocolate chips and fresh
organic mint leaves are among the pure ingredients adorning stylish new
packaging debuting at Natural Products Expo West (Booth 4153).

“It’s hard to remember this now, but when Julie’s launched in the late
‘90s, organic was primarily limited to produce and dairy. There was
nothing really available in indulgent, organic desserts,” said Michelle
Hunt, vice president of marketing. “We pioneered a new category for
people committed to choosing organic, people grateful for an ice cream
aligned with their values. Since then, our audience has expanded and
evolved exponentially, but the Julie’s imagery had not. A fresh look at
our packaging was long overdue.”

Along with the rebrand on its top-selling novelties, Julie’s Organic is
introducing 11 new pint flavors in 2017. “What has stayed the same is
Julie’s commitment to ‘pure delight,’ the brand’s ethos and long-serving
tag line, and this was our inspiration for reimagining everything we
make,” said Hunt. Julie’s eight super premium ice creams include:
Classic Vanilla, Blackberries & Cream, Coffee, Cookies & Cream, Milk
Chocolate, Mint Chip, Sea Salt Caramel and Strawberries & Cream.
Additionally, three refreshing and silky sorbets follow the same organic
pure delight approach with Just Lemon, Mango and Raspberry.

The organic milk and cream used in Julie’s Organic are always free from
synthetic growth hormones like rBST and antibiotics. The new pints are
sweetened with unrefined organic cane sugar and are free from added or
artificial colors, added or artificial flavors, high fructose corn
syrup, carrageenan, tapioca syrup and tapioca starch. The sorbet flavors
are non-dairy, vegan and soy free. All Julie’s Organic products are USDA
certified organic and non-GMO.

New Design for Pints & Novelties Reflects Purity of Ingredients

Ingredients found in nature shine in the new packaging design crafted by
David Lemley and the creative team at Seattle-based agency Retail
Voodoo. Working with photographer David Clugston and stylist Julie
Hopper, the team was inspired by the “pure delight” of the brand,
bringing clippings from local blackberry bushes and fresh strawberry
plants at the peak of summer freshness to the photoshoot.

Julie’s Organic ice cream and non-dairy sorbets are available in the
West at Fred Meyer, Safeway Oregon and Northern California, QFC, Ralphs,
King Soopers, New Seasons, New Leaf and PCC, and throughout the U.S.
through natural food retailers such as Fresh Thyme, Earth Fare and other
fine retailers. Pricing ranges between $5.99 in the West and $6.99 in
the East. Recipes and count size remain unchanged for Julie’s
best-selling novelties.
