Graeter's Ice Cream Celebrates Summer with Bake Shop-Inspired Flavors

Graeter's Ice Cream, renowned as America's oldest family-owned ice cream maker, has just announced the launch of its limited-edition bake shop collection of summer flavors. Customers can indulge in these unique flavors that capture the essence of nostalgic bakery treats, all while staying cool in the summertime heat.

Unique Flavor Line-Up

The 'Bake Shop' collection introduces six delightful flavors:
1. Cinnamon Sticky Bun
A rich and cinnamon-infused ice cream blended with brown sugar and sticky bun dough, enhanced by crunchy toffee pieces, offering everything you love about fresh bakery sticky buns – now packed into a scoop!
2. Beast Feast – Cookie Dough Unleashed
Named after the famed Kings Island roller coaster, this thrill-seeking flavor features cookie butter ice cream loaded with gigantic chunks of sugar cookie dough and colorful rainbow sprinkles.
3. Blueberry Lemon Crumble
Set to be available by mid-June, this flavor combines yellow cake batter ice cream with zesty lemon and luscious blueberries, topped off with cinnamon streusel for a perfect sweet and tart dessert.
4. Pineapple Passion Fruit Sorbet
Launching in early July, this tropical delight melds sweet pineapple with the tangy kick of Peruvian passion fruit, bringing a refreshing burst of flavor reminiscent of a sunny beach vacation.
5. Minty Brownie
Coming late July, this cool mint ice cream featuring chewy brownie chunks strikes an exquisite balance between refreshing mint and rich chocolatey flavor.
6. Caramel Pecan Cheesecake
Available mid-August, this decadently creamy mascarpone ice cream is combined with buttery praline pecans, luscious caramel truffles, and soft cheesecake bits – providing the ideal sweet and salty treat to cap off summer.

Premium Handcrafted Quality

Each flavor in the 'Bake Shop' collection reflects Graeter's commitment to quality, being handcrafted in ultra-small batches using the company's signature French Pot process. This meticulous technique ensures each scoop captures the rich flavors and textures one would expect from homemade desserts. They will be available in Graeter's scoop shops across the nation and online at Graeters.com for nationwide shipping.

Richard Graeter, the fourth-generation president and CEO, expressed his excitement about this summer’s offerings: "From trips to local bakeries to enjoying ice cream, nothing captures the spirit of summer quite like a sweet treat. With this collection, we’re transforming that nostalgic feeling into the most delicious way for ice cream lovers to cool down this season.”

Availability and Purchase Options

Cinnamon Sticky Bun and Beast Feast – Cookie Dough Unleashed are currently available for purchase. The remaining flavors will be released progressively throughout the summer, both in pints and by the scoop at all Graeter's locations, as well as through their online platform.
