Nearly 60 percent of ice cream purchases are made at "scoop shops," restaurants and other specialty outlets. One such company that's brought an added dimension to ice cream is Cold Stone Creamery. The direct result of two ice cream lovers' crusade for the perfect ice cream dessert, the business was founded by Donald and Susan Sutherland in 1988-after years of tirelessly searching for ice cream that met their standards of quality, flavor, consistency and variety.
Today, there are more than 1,360 Cold Stone Creamery locations, and the company continues to develop new flavors for all occasions. One of the newest additions, a delectable choice for the holiday season, is Dark Chocolate Peppermint, which will leave people with visions of candy canes dancing in their heads. This premium flavor can be enjoyed by itself or as part of a scrumptious confection.
