Holiday Soft Serve: A Seasonal Win for Operators

Holiday desserts don’t have to end with pies or peppermint mochas. At Rocky Mountains Distributing — your local Taylor distributor in Colorado, New Mexico, and Wyoming — we know soft serve can be a big hit during the holidays. With a Taylor soft serve freezer or commercial soft serve machine, it’s easy to offer fun seasonal ice cream flavors.


Customers enjoy soft serve in every season, and the holidays are a perfect time to roll out festive seasonal ice cream recipes. Products like Frostline Frozen Treats, Itaberco flavor compounds, and Dole soft serve make it simple to create festive flavors with very little prep work. And with equipment like a new Taylor soft serve ice cream machine, you can run smooth, consistent soft serve recipes for the holidays all season long. RMD also provides reliable Taylor soft serve machine service to keep your equipment ready for the holiday rush.


Peppermint Bark Soft Serve

Peppermint Bark Soft Serve is a fan favorite for holiday ice cream. Start with vanilla or neutral soft serve and blend in Itaberco peppermint compound. Add chocolate drizzle or crushed peppermint for extra holiday flair. It’s an easy and profitable option — and one of the best ice cream recipes for soft serve machines.


Eggnog Soft Serve

Eggnog is a classic winter flavor. Turning it into soft serve makes it even more exciting. Blend warm spices like nutmeg and cinnamon into your base to create a cozy treat. This flavor fits perfectly into any holiday soft serve recipe menu and runs smoothly in your Taylor soft serve machine.


Spiced Cranberry Cheesecake Soft Serve or Shake

If you want something different, try Spiced Cranberry Cheesecake. Mix Itaberco cheesecake flavor compound with cranberry juice and spices. The result is a bright, creamy flavor that stands out. It’s perfect for operators who want more elevated seasonal ice cream flavors.


Gingerbread Latte Soft Serve

Gingerbread is a holiday classic. Blend gingerbread and spiced flavor compounds with vanilla soft serve to create a warm, cookie-like flavor. Add a little coffee syrup for a Gingerbread Latte twist. This recipe works well in any soft serve Taylor machine or soft serve freezer and is popular across cafés and coffee shops looking for simple, festive soft serve recipes.


Holiday Cookie Sundae Creations

Holiday cookie sundaes are an easy way to make soft serve feel festive. Use your commercial soft serve machine to serve your base flavor, then add toppings like gingerbread pieces, sugar cookie crumbles, sprinkles, chocolate syrup, or peppermint bits. It’s a fun holiday ice cream option that requires little effort and no new mix.


Dole Holiday Creations

If you serve Dole soft serve, consider adding holiday twists. A cranberry-citrus parfait or a pineapple-and-cherry swirl creates bright, refreshing flavors. These are great options for customers wanting lighter seasonal ice cream recipes.


Frostline Frozen Treats for Winter Menus

Frostline Frozen Treats make it easy to expand your holiday menu. You can create festive soft serve flavors like spiced apple cider and salted caramel. Frostline works well in any Taylor soft server machine and supports quick, simple holiday soft serve recipes.
