Ran Harel

Ran is a globetrotter who has been creating delicious foods in the US, UK, Israel, and Italy for the past 25 years. The Flavor Guru team is loving his international insights and his commitment to creating concoctions that make people smile. “What more do you need?” he says. We couldn’t agree more. (In fact, wasn’t it a certain Ben & Jerry’s co-founder who said, “If it’s not fun, why do it?” That’s kind of our whole thing around here.) Ran loves taking a vague idea and turning it into a finished product. Kind of like when you have a vague feeling that you want something sweet, a little bit salty, and really crunchy, you deduce that a pint of Chubby Hubby is what you’re after. (That’s Ran’s favorite flavor, and we can’t blame him.)  After joining the Flavor Guru team in 2017, Ran found that they were a pretty unique crew. “At Ben & Jerry’s we mix the worlds of chefmanship and food technology — from that perspective we are quite unique.” You said it, Ran. We are, indeed, one-of-a-kind. He’s been busy lately working on the new Moo-phoria light ice cream lineup, and fans have been ecstatic about his work.
