The franchise brand introduces two festive Creations and two holiday cakes along with a gift-card bonus offer to drive engagement and sales.
- Holiday-inspired Creations™ available until January 6, 2026.
- New seasonal flavors include Frosted Gingerbread Ice Cream.
- Gift card promotion: $15 bonus for every $50 in gift cards.
Cold Stone Creamery is welcoming the holiday season with a lineup designed to blend comfort, nostalgia, and premium dessert craftsmanship. The brand has debuted two Creations developed exclusively for the season: Holiday Spice and Everything Nice, inspired by frosted gingerbread with crunchy ginger snaps and festive sprinkles, and S’more Moose Tracks, combining marshmallow ice cream, fudge, and graham cracker crust. These flavors are available for a limited time, reinforcing the brand’s tradition of making seasonal indulgence part of family celebrations.
The launch expands beyond ice cream to centerpiece desserts with two new cakes crafted to suit holiday gatherings. The Iced and Spiced cake features yellow cake layered with frosted gingerbread ice cream and holiday sprinkles, while the Layer on the Moose Tracks Fudge cake pairs devil’s food cake with marshmallow ice cream and a fudge swirl. Both are finished with white frosting, offering consumers a convenient yet premium option for social occasions.
Cold Stone Creamery is also introducing a gift-card incentive program to complement its holiday flavors. Guests who purchase $50 in gift cards before December 31 will receive a $15 bonus eCard, a strategy designed to encourage both gift-giving and repeat visits. The promotional mechanic strengthens guest acquisition while creating a pathway for return traffic early in the new year.
Courtney Maxedon, Vice President of Marketing and Digital Strategy at Kahala Brands™, noted that the holiday menu was developed to satisfy the desire for comforting, familiar flavors. She emphasized that the lineup was created to make celebrations memorable for families and friends. The campaign illustrates how seasonal innovation and targeted promotions help franchise brands boost sales, deepen customer connections, and reinforce franchisee performance across the system.
