We tried all 31 flavors at Baskin-Robbins — here are the best ones
The INSIDER Summary:
- Baskin-Robbins is famous for having 31 original flavors — the number is even hidden in their logo.
- We taste-tested them all — and more, since they have hundreds of flavors if you include seasonal ones.
- We divided them into five categories, then ranked them based on flavor, creaminess, and texture.
- Pumpkin Cheesecake and Mint Chocolate Chip were among the best flavors.
Baskin-Robbins is known for having original 31 flavors — the number is even hidden in their logo.
We set out to do the impossible and try each and every one of them as part of an ongoing INSIDER taste test series. Previously we compared fried chicken, iced coffee, and vanilla milkshakes.
Turns out, the task really was more impossible than we thought. Not all of the original flavors are still available to try, and most Baskin-Robbins stores don't carry more than 24 flavors at a time. It also turns out that, including seasonal varieties and flavors that no longer exist, Baskin-Robbins has had over 1,300 flavors since its founding.
Determined to try 31 flavors, original or not, we went to three Baskin-Robbins locations around New York to sample as many as possible.
We ended up trying 34 flavors — some better than others.
We divided the flavors into five categories (vanilla based, chocolate based, nut/coffee based, fruity, and sweet), and ranked them based on flavor, creaminess, and texture. Each flavor was given points out of a total 10.
