Today we saw this flurry of activity on Twitter about Eclipse ice cream bars. When we saw the pictures, we recognized the brand, Sanson, as a popular European one based out of Italy. So, we did a little checking because it seemed a little weird that the first main product push would be ice cream made in Italy. The pictures seem to have originated from the La Push Wolfpack Italian forum.
So here’s what we found out via Twilight Italia, who broke the story, that seems to have been Tweeted round the world. With a little help from Google Translation we’ve discovered that there’s this contest being held by Sanson to send two winners of the which ice cream is better (chocolate paw print=Jacob, lemon with strawberry inside=Edward) to the official Twilight Tour in Portland that is run by Creation Entertainment. They also, we think, win a replica Bella’s ring.( We admit that we are a little sketchy on that part.)
Anyway, we asked Summit about it and we learned that there was a deal for this item and we might see some other Eclipse products pop up in non-USA markets, so keep your eyes open!
Very cool! So that picture they have on the ice cream advertisement, is a new one right? one we haven’t seen before? I thought it was the movie one sheet but just checked and its defo not the same
Thanks for posting this
or is it a New Moon pic? Thoughts? Jake kinda looks like the New Moon Jake on that pic ..
Yeah, I think it’s a NM promo pic too. Rob’s hair is definitely more like what it is in the New Moon pics. Also the clothes are what they all wore then.
the white one is lemon and strawberry.. I know because I’m Italian
The prize is a Bella’s jewels parure and a travel to Portland’s Twicon

No twilight Italia
Hate to argue, but Twilight Italia’s entry is date 23 March and the one on the wolfpack site is dated 26 March. Therefore they broke the story and we credited the wolfpack site with the photo related to the story.
I’m the admin in the la push wolfpack forum ^^
Hello!
I made that photo all by myself! I was with my sister, I saw this brand new promotional photos and I started making some researches … I found out that the Sanson company was making this special twilight contest and the day after I took this photo(the one you posted)
I really have to thank you for crediting my forum, it was ‘our special exclusive photo’!! ^^ you did everything very well!
thank you!
No problem. Happy to credit the founding source!
Well I’m italian and in the nex montths I’m going to eat a lot of ice creams,….I don’t care if a Edward or Jacob, I love both tastes and I’m only dreaming to hope to win the big prize……(the convention to Portland)…..
I think these are really amazing! The problem is that the People who run TwiCon ave canceled their Las Vegas and Portland Conventions! Hope the have something else!
TwiCon Ave wasn;t the official Convention of the TWILIGHT SAGA. Creation Entertainment’s is the Official one, and they still have a date set for the TwiTour in Portland. That’s what the prize is for…there’s no problem there.
hi…i’m an italian twilighter and i’m looking forward to taste them=)
I’m Team Edward all the way, but it’s obvious that the Jacob ice cream will win! What woman wouldn’t pick CHOCOLATE?!?!
plus the edward one has no design to it while the jacob one is a paw print!
OOO! I want it so badly! I hope there is some way to get them in America! ?*crosses fingers*
I think this is the proverbial jumping of the shark.
I want this!
Unrelated topic… Just wondering how they are going to synch the Eclipse movie up with the book after the added fight scene with the Vulturi in New Moon. Based on how that fight went Alice and Edward should stay hidden behind Bella
Not sure how Edward can say how Alice’s ability to see the future makes her untouchable in a fight as does his ability to read minds. This adds a severe complication to the 3rd (and 4th/5th) movie and is a good example of what happens when a director veers away from the books to make (in thir minds) a better movie. How do you guys think they will handle this?
I think Stephenie said that it’s justifiable that Edward had a hard time fighting Felix because Felix is a Volturi guard and his talent is fighting. In Eclipse Edward does have problems when he is fighting with Jasper, because even though he can read Jasper’s mind, Jasper is a more experienced fighter, so maybe this explains why Felix beats Edward in NM.
What about Alice? She was taken out in like half a second. We are led to beleive that the Cullens (and their friends) stand a chance against the Vulturi if it wasnt for Jane and Alec. Based on the fight sequence in New Moon I dont see how the Cullens would have any hope. Nor do I see why they would let Alice fight the fledgling army (if she is that weak of a fighter). Even though the fight was done well its a 180 from the book. I dont know how the can stay true to the plot in Eclipse and Breaking dawn now… There just going to have to say “forget what you saw in NM.”
I’m italian and I’m going to eat both flavours..Edward or Jacob, it doesn’t matter, it would be amazing to get a prize….(especially the great one)
Is it available in the states?
They look rather yummy. ^_^ If they ever sell those in the U.S.A I’ll definitely buy them. ^_^
Much love,
Serena
That is so awsome! this is something i would totaly buy if it was in america.
Umm.. sorry, but Lemon/Strawberry – Edward? Gross. But, Jake – Chocolate? Yum. Yeah, give me some of that.
I want it! Are they gonna be selling these in stores or what?
That would be so cool if they could actually be released in the USA
i think they should put some of the twilight/newmoon/eclipse stuff in CANADA
were alot of the movies were filmed
cuse here in canada we get nutta!
For a character that is constantly hit with gay jokes, the pink doesn’t do well to dispel those rumours
TEAM JACOB! but if it is in the states I’ll try both flavors
edward’s flavor is lemon and strawberry…weird combination….
I hope that photo is another promo from Eclipse. I think it encapsulate the story of Eclipse much better than the new one sheet released the other day! It just seems to say love triangle/danger something big is coming nicely.
No, It’s definitely an Eclipse pic and not a New Moon!!! And can you find this ice cream here in the US?? Because I’d love to cast my vote about it!!!
