Cold Stone Creamery

Hello friends and Hivers. I hope all is well. This past weekend for me was spectacular. I have already wrote about one of them which was my son graduating high school. Today I take you on a trip I made on Sunday to Cold Stone Creamery. This will be a long overdue article from me on ice cream.

Here we are at a chain ice cream store that makes some really delicious creamy ice cream. I'm very fortunate if I get a craving for their ice cream as there are a total of six stores in my area. This chain is making its away internationally as it has over 300 stores outside the United States. Is there one near you?

Now I wasn't beating the heat as we had storms and it was raining most of the day. If it would have been a hot summer day this place would have been packed. I'll eat ice cream rain, snow or heat. It was nice having the option to walk right up to the counter. It took my son and I a bit to decide what we wanted. I'll admit I changed my mind a couple of times looking at the menu and other various signs. Ice cream dishes, waffle cones & bowls, shakes, ice cream sandwiches and much more to choose from.

Oh look at all the cold cream 😋 Rather than decide what particular flavor we wanted we decided to go with one of their mixed signature creation flavors. Hence the name of the place, they scoop the ice cream, place it on a cold stone counter and mix the ingredients up right in front of you.

My son ordered first and was already digging in as I waited. Mine took a bit longer because they accidently put it in a dish rather than a waffle cone. The bill was around $18, a little spendy but well worth it.

What did we actually decide on? My son got a large sized one what is called, Cookie Doughn't You Want Some. It contains french vanilla ice cream with chocolate chips, cookie dough, fudge and caramel. I'm not a big fan of cookie dough but it tasted pretty good with the other ingredients.

I got a medium Founder's Favorite which included sweet cream ice cream with pecans, brownie, fudge and caramel. Oh what a rich tasty delight it was. We were both satisfied and it totally spoiled dinner plans later on, haha.

If your looking for ice cream cake there are many different kinds to choose from. I'm sure they rank up there among the best. A bit on the spendy side as they start out at around $40.

At this Cold Stone Creamery location it also has some non ice cream items via The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory. An assortment of chocolates from truffles to chocolate covered strawberries aim to tempt your sweet tooth. Quite the selection of Carmel and speciality covered apples as well. I seen a total of about 20 customers the 30 minutes or so we spent in the store. Not knocking on the chocolate factory all the goodies look delicious. It's just every single customer was here for the ice cream.

Cold Stone Creamery is one of my favorite places to go for ice cream. I have never had a bad experience here. Today visit was refreshing and was a perfect time having some bonding time with my son.

Are you an ice cream lover like me? Do you go out with family or friends for ice cream? If yes, consider sharing it in the Ice Cream Creations Community. I'd love to hear your experiences and of course see your favorite ice creams.

That's all I have for you today. Just one more thing to end this, " I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream."
