Cinnamon Rolls. For nearly 70 years, that’s what generations of South Floridians have waited hours in line for at one of the region’s most recognizable landmarks. Now through the end of the Knaus Berry Farm season, traditionally the third Saturday in April, Chill-N Nitrogen Ice Cream (Chill-N) is bringing those iconic cinnamon rolls a little closer to home in the form of the first ever Knaus Berry Farm Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream. Knaus Berry Farm Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream features a vanilla liquid nitrogen ice cream base infused with chopped up fresh cinnamon rolls to create the ultimate South Florida mash up.
“We all grew up eating those fresh golden, buttery-soft, sticky-sweet cinnamon rolls out of the trunk of our cars on the side of SW 248th street in front of Knaus Berry Farm,” says David Leonardo, CEO of Chill-N Nitrogen Ice Cream. “Now, thanks to our new partnership with the South Dade institution, we get to make the absolutely most delicious ice cream with them. You must try it to believe it. It’s literally Knaus Berry Cinnamon Rolls in ice cream form that’s made right before your eyes.”
Here’s how Chill-N and Knaus Berry Farm’s ice cream works: customers choose a portion size, then an ice cream base (milk, yogurt, or an alt-milk option – coconut, almond, or oat), and then chopped up fresh cinnamon rolls are added as a Mix-N. If guests want, they can also add in any number of additional Mix-N’s including candies, cookies, cereal, fresh fruit, sauces, nuts, and more. Each scoop of Knaus Berry Farm Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream is hand-crafted to order, and flash-frozen on the spot using liquid nitrogen at -320 degrees Fahrenheit in just seconds. Chill-N’s unique freezing process results in a fresh ice cream that is ridiculously rich and decadently creamy.
“Without a doubt, this has been one of the best tasting and most fun collaborations we’ve ever done,” adds Leonardo. “Working with a South Florida legend such as Knaus Berry Farm is a dream come true. And the proof is in the ice cream.”
Prices for Knaus Berry Farm Cinnamon Roll Ice Cream by Chill-N begin at $6.70 for a small, $7.05 for a regular, $7.70 for a large, and $11.70 for a pint. And while supplies last, Chill-N will also sell warm cinnamon rolls by the individual roll inside shops after morning deliveries fresh from the farm for $5.
