In celebration of the beloved dessert brand’s tenth birthday, 16 Handles is partnering with Food Network star and celebrity chef Duff Goldman to offer a limited edition ice cream flavor: Duff’s Confetti Cake Ice Cream! Unique and deliciously sweet, this birthday cake batter ice cream is the perfect treat to celebrate the start of summer.
16 Handles, traditionally known for its frozen yogurt, smoothies, and toppings, expanded its offerings to include ice cream for the very first time last summer with the launch of three ice cream flavors, including the brand’s first collaboration with chef Duff Goldman, Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream.
“We are thrilled to continue working with Chef Duff Goldman,” says CEO and founder, Solomon Choi. “Adding ice cream to our menu is just one of the ways 16 Handles is continuing to evolve in the frozen dessert space. We’ve always been about offering endless options, and with summer favorites like ice cream in the handles, that’s never been truer.”
Duff Goldman, chef, artist, entrepreneur, and TV personality, is known for his creative and visually dazzling approach to dessert. On the hit Food Network show, Ace of Cakes, Duff welcomed viewers into his innovative cake shop, Charm City Cakes, where his team of pastry chefs and artists create spectacular custom cakes. Duff is currently starring in several new shows on Food Network, including the Kids Baking Championship and Holiday Baking Championship series. As part of Duff’s partnership with 16 Handles, facilitated by Duff’s licensing agency, Perpetual Licensing, Duff will continue to introduce seasonal flavors and offerings to 16 Handles at all locations.
