New spot serving cinnamon roll/ice cream mashups could be coming to Colorado

Most people love cinnamon rolls, and most also love ice cream, so why not mash them together, right?

Cinnabon has developed a fresh standalone concept that pairs its baked goods with Carvel’s soft serve ice cream. Cinnabon Swirl will not only have treats from each brand, but also mashups of their desserts from both Cinnabon and Carvel.

The menu will include things like “The Bonini,” a warm-press cinnamon roll filled with vanilla soft serve, the “Cinnabon Swirl Sundae,” chopped cinnamon roll mixed with ice cream and covered in caramel, and ice cream sandwiches – Carvel ice cream served between a pair of chocolate chip cookies

The menu at Cinnabon Swirl is designed for the TikTok audience, where unique foods are often brought to the top of people’s algorithms and become viral sensations.

The first Cinnabon Swirl opens in May in Oregon, with another three opening by the end of this year in Peoria, Arizona; Kennesaw, Georgia; and Pasadena, California. An additional 30 locations are slated to open in 2026. Here’s to hoping Colorado is next on the list.
