Carvel… America’s Freshest Ice Cream, is kicking off ice cream season by celebrating their annual Free Cone Day next Thursday, April 21, from 3-8 p.m. EDT. Carvel guests will be treated to a free junior cone filled with their choice of freshly made vanilla, chocolate or the limited-time, OREO cookie inspired soft ice cream made with real OREO cookie pieces at participating Carvel shoppes.
Making Carvel’s Free Cone Day more special, guests will be invited to support the American Red Cross National Day of Giving. Beginning today until supplies last, Carvel will offer a $1 coupon book worth more than $20 in savings throughout the day with all proceeds going towards a $20,000 donation to support American Red Cross disaster relief efforts. Since first partnering with the organization in 2012, Carvel’s total contributions will exceed $145,000.
“This will be the fifth year we have partnered with the American Red Cross on Free Cone Day. It is our way of saying thank you to our loyal guests and raising money for a wonderful cause” said Scott Colwell, president of Carvel.”
Carvel’s new OREO cookie soft ice cream will be available in participating shoppes through May 31, along with an array of other OREO cookie ice cream treats, including hand-scooped ice cream, a Sundae Dasher, an OREO shake, OREO Lil’ Rounders and an OREO Cake.
As the first retail ice cream franchise operation in the country, Carvel has become one of the most recognized names in ice cream. Since it began in 1934, Carvel has expanded its menu to include an extensive line of hand-dipped and soft ice cream, take-home novelty treats and premium ice cream cakes. All Carvel treats are handcrafted at local Carvel Shoppes daily and are made with only authentic soft ice cream.
