Starbucks Launches the Caramel Waffle Cone Frappuccino
Posted on May 4, 2016
Starbucks is now offering a Caramel Waffle Cone Frappuccino. This new drink passes for a dessert with its waffle cone pieces and syrup. Starbucks also has a S’mores Frappuccino beverage available this summer.
The Caramel Waffle Cone Frappuccino contains waffle cone syrup and dark caramel sauce blended with coffee, milk and ice. It is topped with waffle cone pieces, whipped cream and more dark caramel sauce.
Maretta Delacruz of the Starbucks beverage development team says in a statement, "When you think of waffle cones in an ice cream shop, it’s that aroma of the caramelized brown sugar and butter that draw you in. We used these aromas as our inspiration to capture the flavor of the new Caramel Waffle Cone Frappuccino."
According to the Starbucks' nutrition information page a 16oz Grande version of the Caramel Waffle Cone Frappuccino has 400 calories and 62 grams of carbohydrates. Starbucks says you can get half-priced Frappuccino blended beverages now through May 15, 2016 during its Happy Hour, which runs from 3-5 p.m.
