The fresh look brings Carvel's recent rebrand to life, pairing the brand's classic heritage with a brighter, bolder, more modern personality. Pops of summery yellow join Carvel's signature cherry red and blue frost, plus playful design elements and iconography nod to Carvel's rich history and nearly a century of ice cream cake innovation.

"We wanted to create an eye-catching design that feels just as joyful as the memories that our cakes make," said Kim Mrowczynski, Rich Products' Brand Marketing Manager, Ice Cream Cakes. "We believe that what we've come up with conveys the spirit of Carvel Founder Tom Carvel — Mr. Carvel himself — who always had fun in mind when it came to work. We're proud to bring that playful energy to a new generation of ice cream cake lovers."

Carvel also recently updated its logo to reflect the brand's cult-classic roots, with the "V" in Carvel shaped like a cone holding soft-serve ice cream, the iconic treat that Carvel invented. A new tagline on grocery-store packaging proudly reflects the brand's place in dessert history: "The Original Ice Cream Cake™."
