Crumbl wants to take your taste buds on a trip to Europe this summer with its new Tour of Europe dessert collection.

Available as part of the brand's [limited-time menu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beach-bum-cookie) for the week of August 17th to August 22nd, the new Tour of Europe lineup features six European-style treats to enjoy. First up is the French-inspired Creme Brulee Cookie, which is a chilled brown sugar cookie rolled in turbinado sugar and topped with a torched sugar creme brulee topping. Italian creations include the new cone-shaped Cannoli Cookie, the mascarpone whipped cream-topped Chocolate Tiramisu Cake, and the waffle cone streusel-topped Vanilla Chocolate Gelato Cookie. There's also a Dutch-style Stroopwafel Sandwich Cookie that's [filled with caramel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crumbl-biscoff-pie). Finally, Sweden is represented in the form of the Swedish Candy Cookie featuring Bubs (which is a chewy candy).

## Key Themes

### Why This Trend Is Growing

- **Dessert Tourism:** European-themed flavors transform familiar baked goods into destination-inspired experiences, creating room for brands to package global travel cues into limited-time indulgences.
- **Hybrid Cookie Formats:** Crumbl’s cannoli, stroopwafel, gelato, and tiramisu-inspired items show how cross-format desserts can blur category lines and refresh consumer interest in classic sweets.
- **Limited-time Flavor Flights:** Rotating regional collections give consumers a curated tasting journey, allowing dessert brands to generate urgency through culturally themed menu drops.

### Industries Being Reshaped

- **Bakery:** Premium cookies with international flavor profiles point to new whitespace for bakeries seeking differentiation beyond traditional chocolate chip and frosted varieties.
- **Confectionery:** The inclusion of Swedish candy highlights how candy makers can gain visibility through dessert collaborations that turn branded sweets into experiential ingredients.
- **Foodservice:** Seasonal menus built around recognizable global desserts create scalable concepts for quick-service and fast-casual operators looking to combine novelty with mass appeal.
