Cinnabon is introducing its Signature Frosting in limited-edition pints this holiday season, featuring playful designs and connected packaging. The Signature Cream Cheese Frosting is packaged in a pint that comes with a QR code-topped lid, so that Cinnabon fans can quickly scan the code to find recipes, videos and other content to enhance their holiday creations.
Knowing that people are spending more time in the kitchen this year and will be looking forward to enjoying cozy meals with family this season, Cinnabon is introducing a way for people to take their holiday cooking and baking to the next level. As Cinnabon also knows that its frosting pairs well with movie nights, it is partnering with Freeform for its annual 25 Days of Christmas movie lineup.
