CINCINNATI -- Baby hippo Fiona's influence continues to spread: Now, she has her own ice cream flavor at Graeter's.
The Cincinnati-based ice cream company announced its Chunky Chunky Hippo flavor Monday. The limited-time flavor will be sold in small batches at Graeter's shops in Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, Dayton and Oxford, as well as some sales at the zoo and at graeters.com.
A portion of proceeds go to the Cincinnati Zoo, according to the announcement.
The ice cream itself is a toffee ice cream base with salted, roasted peanuts and milk chocolate caramel truffles, the news release said.
"Fiona continues to bring people together from all over the world in so many ways," said Chad Yelton, vice president of marketing at the zoo. "We appreciate the support of Graeter's and are excited to share this Fiona-inspired ice cream flavor with the community that has rallied around her for the past six months."
