The Iconic Ice Cream Franchise is Always on the Cutting Edge of What Customers Want Today
Just because Cold Stone Creamery® has become synonymous with delicious, traditional ice cream, doesn’t mean the brand’s innovative business partners are complacent when it comes up drumming up new menu items that become instant classics.
In fact, this month Cold Stone Creamery introduced a new flavor – the Silk chocolate almond milk frozen dessert – in partnership with Danone SA, the owner of the Silk brand. Now the company’s first plant-based flavor, which is growing in popularity across the country, a new menu item “Don’t Cry Over Spilled Silk Creation” combines the new Silk flavor along with bananas, peanut butter and roasted almonds.
“Cold Stone is delighted to share our very first plant-based flavor,” said Sara Schmillen, vice president of marketing for Kahala Brands™. “We pride ourselves on our high flavor standards. It was important for us to innovate with an equally high quality and well-respected brand like Danone and their Silk almond milk product. As a result, our new Silk chocolate almond milk frozen dessert delivers on a true ice cream experience — but not made with any dairy product. Plant-based has never tasted so good.”
