Leading ice cream brand, Häagen-Dazs® announces its partnership with 8x Grammy-award-winning musician, Anderson .Paak to launch its first-to-market innovation, the Butter Cookie Cone and revive his famed .Paak House charitable music event. The partnership further elevates and amplifies its #ThatsDazs campaign which began in 2021 and focuses on the mission to elevate the next generation of creators and tastemakers.

Inspired by the brand’s original founding tastemakers and ice cream dreamers, Häagen-Dazs® has pledged to donate $500,000 to .Paak’s nonprofit, The Brandon Anderson Foundation. This donation is the culmination of the Häagen-Dazs® three-year, $1.5 million commitment to supporting nonprofit organizations and spotlighting underrepresented creatives across music, fashion, culinary and art. These organizations include Allies in Arts, La Cocina, She is the Music, Hot Bread Kitchen, CFDA, among others amounting to a total of ten partners in the past two years and $1M dollars donated. Similarly, Häagen-Dazs® and the Brandon Anderson Foundation support and create initiatives that uplift, engage and back the community through access to the arts and experiences. The donation will be used to aid in the production of the Foundation’s notable .Paak House event on May 12, 2023 at Ventura County Fairgrounds and sample new Butter Cookie Cones to the masses.

“Häagen-Dazs has done so much work to support creative communities across the country, “ said .Paak. “To partner with a company so committed to making a positive impact through the arts is perfectly aligned with the goal of .Paak House. This partnership is going to allow us to do some really great things this year. And the new Butter Cookie Cones are the cherry on top.”

Since its inaugural event in 2017, .Paak House has emerged as one of the most highly attended events of the year attracting thousands of music fans from around the country. It is a high energy evening where event goers, families, and youth organizations within the community are granted access to a full night of entertainment including musical performances, food, games and activation. This year, the line-up will welcome a bevy of rising local talent among notable music artists. On-site, .Paak House plans to host fellow nonprofits within the Häagen-Dazs® community as part of its continued efforts to engage the talented members in each group.

Throughout the nighttime festivities, Häagen-Dazs® will serve thousands of complimentary Butter Cookie Cones  to event goers. The new cones are made from a thick, crunchy butter cookie, lined with rich chocolate and feature four of its best-selling ice cream flavors such as Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry and Coffee. Each frozen treat is topped with indulgent cookie pieces, decadent sauce and delicate chocolate curls.

“We are thrilled to partner with Anderson .Paak for our Butter Cookie Cone launch, ” said Rachel Jaiven, Head of Häagen-Dazs® Marketing. “As a purpose-driven brand, we have been on a journey to support as many underserved communities and creatives with our #ThatsDazs campaign as possible. While our donation to the Brandon Anderson Foundation celebrates our initial fulfillment, this is just the beginning of our work for years to come.”

Häagen-Dazs® will continue to go on tour with its Butter Cookie Cone all summer long with sampling of its Butter Cookie Cone at popular music festivals across the country.
