Cold Stone Creamery Introduces New Lemon Pie and Strawberry Shortcake Flavors for Spring

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – (Feb.  28, 2018) Cold Stone Creamery^® (www.ColdStoneCreamery.com) introduces its Spring Desserts promotion, featuring both a trending Ice Cream flavor – as well as a classic.

Each flavor is also featured in a Creation™ and will be available now through May 15, 2018.

The Oh My, Lemon Pie!™ and Strawberry Short and Sweet™ Creations™ bring spring to life with sweet and fruity flavors, marking the start of warmer days ahead.

“It’s all about the mighty lemon this spring,” said Kate Unger, senior vice president of marketing at Kahala Brands™. “Consumer confidence metrics, overall industry trends surrounding the lemon flavor profile in general, and the innovation that the Cold Stone Creamery brand is known for, all make for the much anticipated promotional launch of our Lemon Pie Ice Cream! We take great pride in our super-premium products and these two spring flavors, which are both inspired by the fresh and sunny feeling of spring, exemplify that pride and creativity - and more importantly, are a true treat for all our guests’ palates.
