As the cooler weather begins to slip in and replace the summer days, Cold Stone Creamery is serving up ice cream with seasonal autumn flavors. These fresh flavors bring an infusion of warmth to the cold and creamy desserts.
This year's autumn flavors include pumpkin and salted caramel, which fully embrace the fall season. Touches of sweet caramel appear in two of the brand's newly launched flavors of Twisted Salted Caramel as well as a new Salted Caramel Frappe. The pumpkin-infused ice cream flavors are Pumpkin Pie in the Sky and Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie.
The dishes are then additionally enhanced with toppings such as pretzels, chocolate chips, graham cracker pie crust, whipped topping and caramel. These seasonally sweet treats bring an elegant zest to each of the new dishes. However, these dessert options will only be available until the month of November.
