Why new flavor is instant classic
“I bet it will work,” I thought when I first learned of a potential collaboration between Graeter’s Ice Cream and Skyline Chili.
First off, Graeter’s doesn’t mess around. Just about every flavor it has offered during its century-plus history has hit all the right notes. The company is one of the best ice cream makers in the world, so I figured the geniuses behind the collaboration wouldn’t look at it as a silly little stunt.
Graeter’s has a reputation to protect!
Second, I figured the spice profile of Skyline chili would work well in ice cream, with its warming notes of cinnamon, allspice and cloves.
Trying it for the first time today, all I can say is, “Holy chilito, did they pull it off!” This ice cream even looks delicious with its creamy eggnog-like color.

Enquirer reporter Haadiza Ogwude was spot on when she compared the flavor to a chai latte, though it’s not as cloyingly sweet. The spices, the most prominent being cinnamon, are beautifully balanced. And a (very) subtle kick of chili powder gives it a distinctly Skyline taste.
The texture is also remarkable − silky smooth with little crunchies of oyster crackers. (Yes, there are oyster crackers in here. And yes, they work.)
Following a suggestion from former Enquirer reporter C. Trent Rosecrans, I added a splash of hot sauce to the ice cream, which worked remarkably well, adding to its chili-flavored profile. I also mixed in more oyster crackers for a bit more saltiness and crunch. Just like Skyline chili, you can mess around with this stuff.
So yes, Graeter’s has done it again. And while execs from Skyline and Graeter’s say the collaboration will be available for a limited time only, it feels less like a one-off stunt and more like an instant classic.
