CLEVELAND, Ohio — Olive Garden is making a splash this summer with a new line of pasta-inspired pool inflatables designed to help fans stay cool while showing off their love of Italian food.
The restaurant chain announced three limited-edition floats modeled after popular pasta shapes. The collection includes the Floatin’ Fettuccine, a flat lounger styled after the wide noodles in its classic fettuccine Alfredo and the Relaxin’ Rigatoni, a tube-shaped float you can sit inside.
It also features the Takin’ It Easy Tortelloni, a chair-like inflatable inspired by stuffed pasta.
Each float costs $40 and comes with free shipping. As an extra perk, buyers can choose one of several themed accessories, including a breadstick-patterned bucket hat, a “Soup-er Summer Vibes” tote bag or a floating drink holder shaped like lettuce.
Early access sales began June 26 for Olive Garden eClub members. The general public can purchase the floats starting June 30 on the company’s website while supplies last.
The launch follows a trend of food-themed pool floats that have gained popularity in recent years, from giant pizza slices to novelty ice cream designs.
