Cold Stone Creamery has introduced two new ice cream flavors for the fall season, the 'Cinnamon Roll Bliss' and the 'Mocha Cookie Latte.'
The Cinnamon Roll Bliss flavor features "Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream mixed with cream cheese frosting, yellow cake, and caramel, inspired by the taste of a classic cinnamon roll while the Mocha Cookie Latte combines Coffee Ice Cream with cookie dough, fudge, and sugar crystals, appealing to fans of coffee and cookies."
Additionally, Cold Stone Creamery offers two distinct categories—promotional flavors and promotional creations; Cinnamon Roll Bliss and the Mocha Cookie Latte fall under the latter as limited-time 'creations,' to make ice cream a relevant treat as temperatures cool down. Moreover, in a statement by Jana Schneider, vice president of national programs at Kahala Brands, "Fall is a season of warmth and comfort, and we've crafted these desserts to perfectly capture that spirit."
