Deconstructed Dessert Cups

Friendly's Dessert Cups Reinvent Classics to Offer a Dessert for One

— April 22, 2019 — Lifestyle
Friendly’s Dessert Cups offer a convenient way for consumers to enjoy the taste of some classic treats like banana cream pie, strawberry shortcake and red velvet cake in a format that provides just a dessert for one.

The single-serve dessert cups feature up to six layers of ingredients, including a whipped topping and a texture-rich add-on. While the Pecan Praline Cup combines praline-coated pecan pieces, vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce with a topping of roasted pecan pieces, the Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Cup layers chocolate nut butter fudge truffles with indulgent chocolate ice cream and chocolate flakes.

Consuming these classic desserts typically calls for purchasing an entire pie or a cake, yet these single-serve dessert cups offer an easy way to eat these beloved desserts on the go.

2. Packaging - The packaging industry has the potential to develop innovative packaging solutions specifically designed for single-serve dessert cups.
3. Snack Foods - Snack food companies can incorporate the concept of single-serve dessert cups into their product offerings to provide consumers with a variety of indulgent snack options.
