A Strawberry Celebration: Introducing Strawberry Tres Leches
In honor of National Strawberry Month, Baskin-Robbins is scooping up a new flavor that takes inspiration from the beloved Latin American dessert: tres leches cake. The new Strawberry Tres Leches Ice Cream pays homage to this iconic treat, translating its rich, creamy textures and sweet flavors into a frozen delight that’s hard to resist.
This indulgent ice cream flavor blends together Tres Leches Ice Cream, made with a rich mix of three milks, with ripe strawberry pieces, fluffy chunks of white cake, and a ribbon of strawberry swirl. The result? A sweet, velvety experience that brings to mind fresh slices of strawberry shortcake soaked in luscious milk and topped with juicy fruit.
Strawberry Tres Leches is more than just a new flavor—it’s a tribute to the desserts that bring people together, especially during spring celebrations like Mother’s Day. Available for a limited time throughout May, this scoopable dessert is destined to become a seasonal favorite. But don’t wait too long—like a spring breeze, it won’t be here forever.
Sip into Spring: The Lava Colada
Ice cream isn’t the only thing making waves at Baskin-Robbins this season. For those who prefer sipping to scooping, the brand has added a brand-new tropical beverage to its lineup: the Lava Colada. Inspired by the popular island drink known as the Lava Flow, this non-alcoholic version fuses the creamy coconut-pineapple flavor of a piña colada with the vibrant, fruity tang of strawberries.
Crafted as a frozen, drinkable dessert, the Lava Colada is the ultimate refresher for warm spring afternoons. It’s like a beach vacation in a cup—no passport required. The drink offers a harmonious blend of tropical flavors with a texture that’s both creamy and icy, making it a treat that cools you down while satisfying your sweet tooth.
And there’s more good news for Baskin-Robbins Rewards™ members: From May 1 through May 31, members can enjoy a medium Lava Colada for just $4, all day, every day. This special offer provides a great reason to try something new or enjoy a repeat of your favorite frozen beverage.
Thoughtful Treats for Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day, one of the most heartwarming days of the year, is the perfect time to show appreciation with a thoughtful, edible gift. Baskin-Robbins is helping families celebrate moms everywhere with two limited-edition ice cream cakes, each offering a stunning presentation and delightful flavors.
The first, the Perfect Peony Cake, is a show-stopper. This floral-inspired dessert now features even more vibrant peony icing decorations, along with beautifully piped rosettes, creating a design that looks as good as it tastes. The cake is a celebration of spring flowers, love, and the artistry of Baskin-Robbins’ cake decorators.
For those looking for something fruitier and fresher, the Strawberries ‘n Cream Cake is a seasonal classic that never disappoints. Topped with real strawberries and covered in strawberry-whipped frosting, it captures the essence of spring in both appearance and flavor. The cake itself is fully customizable, allowing customers to choose from a variety of ice cream and cake combinations to best suit Mom’s tastes.
Whether you prefer chocolate cake with cookies ‘n cream ice cream or vanilla cake with pralines and caramel, Baskin-Robbins lets you design a cake that’s unique and personal. You can even add a heartfelt message, ensuring that your gift speaks from the heart.
As a bonus, Baskin-Robbins Rewards™ members can save $5 on any cake purchase of $35 or more during the month of May—a sweet incentive to make the holiday even more memorable.
