These [Churro ice cream sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-shandwich) are a decadent summer dessert. A Churro is essentially the Spanish equivalent of your average donut. Unlike American donuts, the Churro is thin, flat and usually rolled in [cinnamon sugar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caramel-churro-cookie). Each of the Churro Borough ice cream sandwiches comes with two deliciously deep fried Churro donuts that sandwich a yummy Spanish-inspired ice cream flavor. Foodies have the choice to try either Spanish latte, Mexican hot chocolate, horchata or vanilla custard ice cream flavors. This Spanish ice cream sandwich would be a delicious snack to have to cool off during a hot day. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Spanish-inspired Desserts:** Exploring the fusion of traditional Spanish flavors and modern desserts presents opportunities for creating unique and indulgent treats. - **Alternative Ice Cream Sandwiches:** By replacing traditional cookies with unconventional options like churro donuts, there is potential to create exciting and innovative ice cream sandwich variations. - **Creative Flavor Combinations:** Experimenting with unusual ice cream flavors, such as Spanish latte, Mexican hot chocolate, horchata or vanilla custard, can result in enticing and refreshing desserts. ### Who This Affects Most - **Food and Beverage:** The food and beverage industry can explore the creation and marketing of Spanish-inspired desserts and alternative ice cream sandwiches. - **Dessert and Snack:** The dessert and snack industry can develop innovative offerings by exploring new flavor combinations and unique ice cream sandwich options. - **Hospitality and Tourism:** The hospitality and tourism industry can showcase Spanish-inspired desserts as a unique and enticing culinary experience for travelers and food enthusiasts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fried Dessert-Flavored Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doughlicious-dough-chi.md) - [Ice Cream-Filled Donut Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duck-donuts-donut-ice-cream-sandwich.md) - [Textural Churro-Inspired Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ben-jerrys-churray-for-churros.md) - [Churro-Inspired Donut Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/churrdough-collection.md) - [Churro-Flavored Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dulce-de-leche-ice-cream.md) - [Crispy Fried Churro Fries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/churro-fries.md) - [Remixed Latin Dessert Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-churro-chunk-cookie.md) - [Dippable Mini Churros](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-churritos.md) - [Crunchy Churro Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caramel-churro-crunch-ice-cream.md)
