Cold Case Ice Cream, a Springville-based brand that bills itself as “crime-inspired,” has won placement in more than 1,000 Kroger-owned stores nationwide. The company’s luxury ice cream brand is known for its decadent, full-fat recipes. The brand features ice cream names like Electric Chair, Butterscotch Moonshine, Rum Runner, Chocolate Chop Shop, Sugar Momma and John Dough.
In addition to freezer case positioning in Utah’s Smith’s, Smith’s Marketplace and Smith’s Express stores, the ice cream can now be found in other Kroger banner stores across Texas, Arizona, California, the Pacific Northwest, the Midwest and the Mountain West.
For a brand in just its third year, securing placement at this scale is uncommon, Cold Case said in a release.
“Winning national grocery placement this early is a major validation of our concept,” said Josh Butt, CEO of Cold Case Ice Cream. “Consumers are looking for indulgence where the calories count without making you feel awful afterwards, not just another pint in the freezer. Our goal has always been to turn dessert into an experience.”
