Ready-to-Eat Dessert Cones

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Trader Joe's 'Hold the Cone!' Introduces Bite-Sized Frozen Treats

— October 6, 2017 — Lifestyle
After introducing its Hold the Cone! Mini Ice Cream Cones earlier this year, Trader Joe's is now launching a seasonal Pumpkin Ginger variety.

These ready-to-eat mini cones boast ginger-flavored cones that are said to remind of gingerbread and a filling of pumpkin ice cream. As with many fall pumpkin products, the ice cream is spiced with ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. To top it all off, the ice cream is encased in a sweet white confectionary coating that is sure to be a treat for those who love the flavors of the season.

Although there are many spiced pumpkin ice cream desserts that are being sold by the pint this autumn, these miniature ice cream cones put a new spin on the concept and offer a refreshing alternative to traditional pumpkin pie.
Trend Themes
1. Mini Dessert Cones - The rising popularity of mini dessert cones presents an opportunity for companies to create bite-sized versions of their popular recipes or offer unique, seasonal flavors.
2. Seasonal Flavors - With the success of seasonal flavors such as pumpkin spice and gingerbread, businesses can capitalize on creating limited-time offerings to keep customers interested and coming back for more.
3. Ready-to-eat - As consumers continue to seek out convenience and time-saving options, companies can develop innovative ways of delivering high-quality, on-the-go desserts such as these ready-to-eat dessert cones.
Industry Implications
1. Frozen Treats - With the introduction of Trader Joe's Hold the Cone! mini ice cream cones, the frozen treats industry can look into developing more bite-sized options for consumers.
2. Snack Foods - As these dessert cones offer a convenient, snack-sized option for consumers, snack food companies can consider creating and marketing similar products.
3. Sweets and Desserts - As these dessert cones offer a unique and refreshing twist on pumpkin spice and gingerbread flavored sweets, dessert companies can think about innovating new, seasonal flavors and packaging options.
