Things are getting colder at The Cheesecake Factory.
The chain restaurant with a famously long menu is adding new items to their inventory. Only this time, it’s an item you can buy in the grocery store.

Seven new ice cream flavors are being introduced thanks to a partnership with Wells Enterprises, Inc., an ice cream manufacturer based in Iowa, according to a press release. The frozen pints are made with The Cheesecake Factory’s cream cheese blend and sour cream and are now available in the frozen aisle of grocery stores around the nation.
Check the website to see if the pints are available near you. If you can't buy them quiet yet, ice cream and cheesecake lovers can expect to find them in their local stores by April.
Inspired by the chain’s famed cheesecake flavors, 14-oz. cartons of the sweet treats will include the following offerings. Birthday cake, strawberry, cookies and cream, chocolate, salted caramel, key lime and original.
The suggested retail price for each pint is $4.99 and a spokeswoman told the AJC that Kroger, Food Lion, Winn-Dixie and Bi-Lo are on tap to sell the treats in Georgia.

While seeing ice cream inspired by The Cheesecake Factory’s signature item is new, finding the chain’s dishes outside of the restaurant and in stores is not.
The brand already sells their cheesecake — whole and in slices — in the freezer and bakery of stores like Publix, Target and Walmart. They also sell boxed cheesecake mix, mini cupcakes, pudding, coffee creamer and their famous "brown bread" — or wheat dinner rolls — in stores.
