Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, who is gearing up for his fourth Super Bowl win, is no stranger to the spotlight, not only for his football prowess but also for his personal life, which recently gained attention due to his relationship with 14-time Grammy winner Taylor Swift. However, there’s more to Kelce than his on-field achievements and romance — including some interesting food opinions.
On a recent episode of his podcast *New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce*, the 33-year-old NFL star, alongside his older brother and former NFL player Jason Kelce, discussed their all-time favorite ice cream flavors. Among their ice cream tips and favorites, one stands out: the brothers strongly recommend that cake batter ice cream is best enjoyed from Cold Stone Creamery.
When it comes to frozen treats, Travis shares his belief that “some flavors taste better from different places,” and both brothers agree that Cold Stone’s take on cake batter is unparalleled. The duo’s shared love for the flavor is evident, as they finish each other’s sentences, with Jason stating, “Cake batter, but do cake batter specifically from…” and Travis quickly responding, “Cold Stone.”
Why does Cold Stone’s cake batter stand out? Though the chain has yet to reveal the exact recipe, many suspect the secret lies in its use of fresh ingredients and in-store preparation. Cold Stone’s ice cream is made fresh daily, with some fans recommending visiting on Mondays when new batches are prepared.
The brand also stands out for its “super-premium” ice cream, which boasts a butterfat content of 12% to 14%, higher than the industry standard of 10%. This richer composition enhances the ice cream’s flavor, especially in delicate flavors like cake batter.
The Kelce brothers also shared their “Mount Rushmore” of ice cream flavors, which includes butter pecan, cookies and cream, and black raspberry chip, with the latter being a standout from Graeter’s. Jason also enjoys mixing brownie pieces into his cake batter ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
Whether you agree with Travis and Jason’s ice cream preferences or not, it’s clear that the Kelce brothers know a thing or two about what makes the perfect frozen dessert.
