Sprinkles Cupcakes Founder Candace Nelson Introduces New Ice Cream Shop!

STUDIO CITY (CBS) — Sprinkles is famous for their cupcakes...and soon they will be well known for their ice cream as well!

Candace Nelson visited the KCAL9 studios Thursday to talk about her new venture into ice cream.

Candace and her husband Charles launched their new foray into American desserts on May 24 with the opening of Sprinkles Ice Cream. Next door to the company's flagship bakery, separated only by the Cupcake ATM, Sprinkles Ice Cream will incorporate cupcakes in unique ways into its menu.

Handcrafted using organic California dairy and carefully selected ingredients, Sprinkles is slow churned to incorporate less air resulting in a densely creamy and intensely flavorful ice cream experience. Scooped into crisp waffle cones or piled high into sundaes loaded with housemade sauces and toppings, Sprinkles Ice Cream is a back to basics creamery with a Sprinkles twist! Ice cream purists will be able to choose scoop shop classics like vanilla bean, strawberry and coffee while foodies may opt for salty caramel, cap'n crunch or butter pecan studded with caramelized pecan dragées. Also on the menu: non-dairy sorbets, shakes, malts and root beer floats!

Can't decide between Sprinkles Cupcakes and Sprinkles Ice Cream? There's no need to with menu items like red velvet waffle cones, crumbled cupcake toppings, cupcake sundaes, cupcake shakes and the decadent Sprinkles Sandwich – a heaping scoop of your favorite ice cream flavor pressed between two fluffy cupcake tops!

The new shop is located at 9631 South Santa Monica Boulevard, Beverly Hills, California 90210.
