Creams opens in Croydon with 3,000 scoops of gelato giveaway
Creams Croydon is giving away a scoop of gelato from 12pm on 1st and 2nd February to the first 3,000 lucky customers. Subject to availability and whilst stocks last.
Creams, the UK’s leading dessert restaurant brand with over 80 stores from Glasgow to Bournemouth, is giving away 3,000 scoops of free gelato to celebrate its new café in Croydon.
Opening its doors for the first time on 30th January, Creams Croydon will start giving away free gelato from 12pm on 1st and 2nd February to lucky customers on a first-come, first served basis, to celebrate the launch.
Sweet-toothed Croydon locals are encouraged to get down early for their free scoop of Creams’s delicious gelato, which is made at its one-of-a-kind gelato factory in East London.
Bringing sensational, Instagram-friendly desserts to Croydon, the 80-seat restaurant and takeaway, located at Unit 2A of the Valley Leisure Park, is set to employ more than 25 employees and offers an unrivalled range of delicious, freshly prepared treats, including a number of expertly-crafted cookie dough combinations, crêpes, and waffles. For Croydon’s most creative and imaginative dessert-lovers, Creams’s ‘Invent your Own’ station allows guests to create the fantasy dessert of their dreams with as many of their favourite toppings, such as popping candy, chocolate shavings and a variety of sauces, as they like.
Lauren Haslewood, Marketing Director at Creams, said: “We can’t wait to introduce Creams to the local community and would love to see plenty of people at our grand opening on the 1st February for delicious gelato. With our location in the Leisure Park, we’re confident that our dessert café will not only be loved by busy shoppers but will also become a great spot for those looking for a romantic date after watching a film or a game of bowling. We look forward to welcoming Croydon’s biggest dessert fans!”
Menu highlights at Creams Croydon include The Creams Knickerbocker Glory - a twist on the much-loved classic, complete with chocolate chip gelato and strawberry gelato with mango slices, fresh banana slices and fresh strawberry slices, topped with Creams soft vanilla ice-cream, strawberry sauce and a Creams wafer, as well as the new Crêpe Au Bueno – a freshly made hot crêpe with delicious white Kinder Bueno, white chocolate hazelnut spread and white chocolate shavings. A chocolate lover’s dream come true!
In addition to its main menu, the new store in Croydon will be offering a limited-edition Valentine’s menu which runs from 7th February until 16th February. The menu welcomes three love-ly desserts, perfect for sharing, including an exquisite hand-drawn lace crepe filled with piña colada gelato, a sensational white chocolate cookie dough centred waffle with pomegranate gelato, or a wrapped chocolate crepe filled with oozing melted chocolate fudge cake.
With vegan and gluten-free options available, Creams’s everyday celebrations cater to everyone. Thick milkshakes, smoothies and soda floats, plus teas and coffees accompany the dessert extravaganza.
