“We are thrilled to be continuing our partnership with RaceTrac to offer our premium, fresh baked treats to more guests in a variety of new and exciting formats,” said Julie Thomas, director of foodservice sales, convenience & petroleum and entertainment, global channels for FOCUS Brands, the parent company of Cinnabon. “We attribute our tremendous success this past year to our mutual dedication to providing the highest quality food offerings to our guests. We can’t wait to show everyone what sweet things we have planned for 2018!”

“Crafted by Cinnabon,” which launched in November 2016, is the brand’s first line of fresh bakery treats designed for single serve or in multi-serve channels such as grocery, convenience stores, university campuses and other food service outlets. The line delivers the same fresh-baked quality and signature ingredients that guests have come to love and expect from Cinnabon bakeries, including legendary Cinnabon Makara® cinnamon and signature cream cheese frosting.

“Bringing Cinnabon treats to RaceTrac’s bakery case continues to exceed our expectations, and we are excited to now offer Gooey Swirls, a warm Cinnabon product,” said Steve Turner, Executive Director of Foodservice. “Adding the well-known Cinnabon brand to our already-premium bakery menu provides our guests with extra indulgent treats from which to choose.”
