Trolli Sour Blast is Baskin-Robbins' June Flavor of the Month and Trolli’s first-ever ice cream collaboration with sour swirls. This bold, sweet and sour indulgence inspired by Trolli Sour Brite Crawlers gummi candy builds on a base of Trolli lime-flavored ice cream and orange-flavored sherbet with lime-flavored swirls.
Baskin-Robbins' candy-inspired lineup is available for a limited time and the Trolli Sour Blast is joined by other treats like the Trolli Sour Blast Fizz (a blend of the Trolli Sour Blast frozen treat with STARRY Lemon-Lime soda) and the a reinvented childhood favorite, Trolli Dirt ‘n Worms Sundae.
Candy captures a carefree essence that transcends age, and this summer, Baskin-Robbins is tapping into this nostalgia to create sweet, joyful experiences that resonate with both kids and adults alike.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Candy-inspired Frozen Treats
- The rise of candy-inspired frozen treats offers a playful and nostalgic twist, appealing to consumers who crave unique and indulgent flavor experiences.
- Nostalgic Flavor Combinations
- Combining traditional candy flavors with modern dessert formats taps into powerful nostalgia, capturing the hearts of both younger and older generations seeking comfort and joy.
- Limited-time Offer Excitement
