While the new Churro Swirl is made with ingredients of the same quality as the cinnamon buns that Cinnabon offers, the brand teamed up with Carvel to offer the decadent Churro Frosting Sandwich with a cream cheese frosting center as a different way to enjoy the swirl-shaped summer snack.

Over the past few years, the classic Spanish breakfast favorite has been reinvented time and time again with new flavors, forms and fillings to share even more creative variations on the sweet, craveable treat with consumers across North America.
