Ben & Jerry's has just launched a new flavour in the UK - and it's perfect for autumn.

What will undoubtedly become the Pumpkin Spice Latte of the ice cream world, the new Spice & All Things N’ice flavour consists of caramel ice cream swirled with gingerbread cookie pieces and chocolate chunks.

What's more, is this is a tub of ice cream with a conscience as part of the proceeds will go towards setting up a cooperative fund to help refugee entrepreneurs in the UK break into the business world.

According to a statement from Ben & Jerry's: "The cooperative fund will be owned and managed by graduates of the 'Ice Academy'; a business training, mentoring and employment programme set up by Ben & Jerry’s and their friends over at The Entrepreneurial Refugee Network (TERN) to help refugees to develop their own business ideas."

Fred Kastner Co-Founder of TERN added: “Partnering with Ben & Jerry’s has meant a fair amount of ice cream in our office, but also a heavy dose of social activism. The cool thing for us is that Spice & all things N’ice removes a key barrier for refugee start-ups by providing small scale loans to get their businesses off-the-ground, in a process that is managed by refugee entrepreneurs for refugee entrepreneurs."

Delicious ice cream that backs a great cause? A win-win.

Ben & Jerry's Spice & All Things N’ice is available in freezers around the country from September 19.
