The "icing on the cake" at Baskin Robbins refers to their Cake flavored ice cream with cake pieces, frosting bits and a candy confetti ribbon. It's a flavor designed to capture the essence of a celebratory cake in ice cream form.
This flavor incorporates several elements to mimic the taste and texture of a traditional cake:
- Cake flavored ice cream: The base is ice cream specifically flavored to taste like cake.
- Cake pieces: Actual pieces of cake are mixed into the ice cream for texture and flavor.
- Frosting bits: Bits of frosting are included to add sweetness and the distinct flavor of cake frosting.
- Candy confetti ribbon: This adds a visual element and contributes to the celebratory feel of the ice cream, along with providing a slightly different texture.
Baskin-Robbins aims to provide a variety of flavors and experiences, and the "Cake" flavor is an example of how they try to capture familiar dessert experiences in their ice cream. The presence of cake pieces and frosting bits distinguishes it from a simple vanilla or sweet cream base.
