Cold Sweet Catering.

When you start thinking about getting a catering service for that next party, you can add one more to that list. We have plenty to choose from like Subway and a plethora of Mom & Pop places, but a new comer has thrown in it's hat for a piece of the pie. Did I say Pie, I meant Ice Cream, Cold Stone Creamery has come up with a line of Mini Desserts. These mini desserts are going to try to take advantage of the small-indulgence trend. No one wants to eat a whole slice of cake, but a bite sized ice cream confection? Oh yeah there couldn't be that many calories in there. Could there? 

Here are a list of some of the choices that Cold Stone is coming out with:

1. Oreo canapés — Oreo cookies topped with a miniature scoop of ice cream, dipped in either ganache or frosting and garnished with sprinkles or candy.
2. Cone-olis — Inspired by a suggestion from a franchisee who suggested piping soft ice cream into cannoli shells, these are made from miniature waffle cones filled with cheesecake ice cream, dipped in miniature chocolate chips, garnished with a stripe of non-dairy “bettercream,” and topped with a maraschino cherry.
3. Cake Bites — made from large sheet cakes spread with ice cream and topped with an optional layer of caramel or fudge, cut in one-inch-by-three-inch rectangles, dipped in ganache and garnished with a choice of candy.
4. Mini Cones — choice of ice cream in miniature waffle cones and dipped in a chocolate shell.
5. Cake Pops — already available in certain locations, house-made yellow, red velvet or devil’s food cake is mixed with frosting, rolled into balls, dipped in a chocolate shell and garnished with sprinkles or other candy.

Cold Stone is looking at a October 3, 2012 start date. Although prices are set by the franchisees, but the suggested retail price is $1.49 each.
