Carter Kench was a delight to interview as we discussed moving and celebrating the holidays in the West as fellow Southerners, his TikTok presence and inspirations, and his partnership with International Delight this season.

 Carter Kench, @cringecarter on TikTok, began on posting content in 2018 and has been a fun, emotionally-relatable figure and influencer in the world of social media. Carter is a 20-year old from Georgia who’s starting his own podcast, GoCarter! on YouTube,  to journey through note-worthy and relevant content and topics. From love to friends, family and so much more.

 

Carter Kench’s Partnership with International Delight

Nearly two-thirds of Americans* think that malls are the grinchiest places to be during the holidays. That’s why Carter was so excited to team up with International Delight to surprise shoppers at The Mall of America on December 8th with free coffee made more joyful with International Delight’s Grinch-themed Peppermint Mocha creamer as well as gift cards to help fulfill holiday wish lists, while supplies last. The Grinch himself even made an appearance!

The Grinch and TikTok star, Carter Kench, serve up coffee with International Delight Grinch Peppermint Mocha creamer at Mall of America on Thursday, Dec. 8, 2022, in Minneapolis. The beloved creamer brand offered a cheerfully chocolatey, magically minty surprise to stressed out shoppers during the busy holiday season.

#ad @International_Delight teamed up with @Dr. Seuss for the coffee creamer of my dreams! It’s brimming with holiday cheer and inspired by the Grinch! If you’re in Minneapolis, join me, International Delight and the Grinch at the Mall of America where we’ll be spreading holiday cheer with free coffee, Peppermint Mocha creamer and other goodies on 12/8, while supplies last! Remember not to be a grinch and keep it delightful this season! @The Grinch #InternationalDelight #InDelightfulSpaces🎄 ☕

Inside the Mind and Heart of @CringeCarter

We talked about what it meant to be in partnership with International Delight and to be involved in a project that was understandably one of his cherished Christmas memories, the Grinch! He enjoyed discussing the many flavors that come with this line of coffee creamers, while also mentioning several favorites. We further discussed his future projects and holiday plans, and when asked what he thought about the idea of being single during the holidays, he essentially stated that, “If you can have love for the world, you don’t need somebody else there next to you to be able to share that.”

Watch the rest of the interview above and get to know a little bit more about the person behind CringeCarter.
