Wings Etc. testing Cinnamon Pretzel Bites in Five Indiana locations

Through March 7, Wings Etc. guests can try new Cinnamon Pretzel Bites with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Dipping Sauce at five locations in the South Bend area.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Jan. 4, 2021)— Now through March 7, guests at Wings Etc. locations in Mishawaka, South Bend, Elkhart, Goshen, and Osceola, Indiana will be the first to try a new Wings Etc. dessert: Cinnamon Pretzel Bites with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Dipping Sauce. The dessert item is in a ten-week test, and guest orders and reorders—along with post-purchase guest feedback—will determine its future in a possible wider release.

New Cinnamon Pretzel Bites are a twist on Wings Etc.’s popular soft Bavarian Pretzel Bites. Instead of Kosher salt sprinkles and Nacho Cheese dipping sauce, the pretzel bites are dusted with cinnamon sugar and served with cinnamon cream cheese dipping sauce. “People love our pretzels,” said Wings Etc. CEO Rob Hensmann, “and we think this new, dessert-focused version will enjoy the same success as our savory pretzel options.”

Cinnamon Pretzel Bites with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Dipping Sauce are available through March 7 only at Wings Etc. Mishawaka, South Bend (Ireland Road), Elkhart, Goshen, and Osceola, Indiana locations.
