Paris Baguette is introducing TV-inspired café beverages through a collaboration with Dancing with the Stars for its 35th season. Beginning September 14, the bakery café will serve a Mirrorball Croissant Iced Latte and Mirrorball Croissant Iced Matcha, both inspired by the show’s signature trophy. Each drink combines croissant flavor with either Lavazza espresso or ceremonial-grade matcha and is finished with a mini croissant, branded sleeve and sparkling Mirrorball accent.
The collaboration turns a television sponsorship into a physical café experience that viewers can engage with beyond the screen. Paris Baguette is supporting the drinks with live-show exposure, custom content, National Dance Day promotions and a finale sweepstakes. This multi-channel approach can drive café visits, rewards membership and social engagement while introducing the brand to the show’s audience and creating limited-time reasons for existing customers to return.
