]]> Think ice cream is just a summer seller? Think again. Comelle’s new Autumn/Winter Soft Serve Forecast 2026 reveals that almost a third of all out-of-home ice cream sales now happen during the colder months, with frozen desserts becoming a year-round opportunity for foodservice operators.

Nostalgic Desserts and Eye-Catching Presentation

The report highlights how seasonal flavours, nostalgic desserts and eye-catching presentation can help drive footfall and increase spend. From chai, espresso martini and mulled pomegranate-inspired serves to indulgent toppings such as toasted panettone, peppermint bark and blondie s’mores, winter menus are evolving to deliver comfort, creativity and shareable moments. The report also points to growing demand for adventurous flavour combinations, including sweet-meets-savoury pairings and emerging tea-inspired desserts, alongside the continued importance of texture and visual appeal.

Released as part of Comelle’s 75th anniversary celebrations, the latest Forecast provides practical inspiration for operators looking to boost dessert sales and profitability throughout autumn and winter.
