Two iconic establishments in Cincinnati have joined forces to create a unique and innovative dessert experience. Graeter’s, the oldest family-run ice cream brand in America, and Skyline Chili, a renowned restaurant known for its chili served over spaghetti, recently unveiled their latest collaboration: Skyline Spice, a limited-edition ice cream flavour.


The new flavour, described as “wacky-yet-wonderful,” combines Graeter’s signature creamy French pot ice cream with crunchy oyster crackers, a classic accompaniment to chili, and Skyline Chili’s distinctive spice mix. This partnership aims to bring together the best of both worlds from these beloved Cincinnati eateries, offering a sweet and spicy treat for customers to enjoy.
Richard Graeter, president and CEO of Graeter’s, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, highlighting the anticipation surrounding the joint venture. Addressing rumours that had circulated online prior to the official announcement, Graeter confirmed that the unique flavour had been in development for months and was now ready to surprise and delight customers.
The collaboration marks a significant milestone for Skyline Chili, as chairman and CEO Dick Williams stated that this would be the eatery’s first dessert collaboration, emphasizing the importance of creating a product that would resonate with fans of both brands. The Skyline Spice Ice Cream is said to embody the essence of these two Midwest-born institutions in each scoop.
Fans of ice cream and chili alike are eagerly anticipating the release of Skyline Spice. The flavour is described as a blend of sweet and savoury flavours that promise a one-of-a-kind taste experience. Available in 5-oz. scoops at all Skyline Chili restaurant locations across Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, and Florida, as well as at Graeter’s shops for sampling by the scoop or pint, customers nationwide can also order pints online for delivery.
Social media reactions to the announcement have been mixed, with some users expressing excitement over the unexpected pairing of ice cream and chili flavours. Others have voiced curiosity about the combination but are willing to give it a try out of their love for both brands. The collaboration has sparked conversations and generated buzz within the culinary community.
As Graeter’s and Skyline Chili introduce their innovative Skyline Spice ice cream flavour, customers are invited to embark on a flavourful journey that merges tradition with creativity. The limited-edition creation reflects the shared passion and commitment to quality that both establishments embody, ensuring a unique and memorable dining experience for those willing to explore new culinary horizons.
