Cold Stone Creamery, Rochester

Cold Stone began under the hot Arizona sun in 1988, eventually spreading its frosty fingers to more than 1,400 locations worldwide. Despite the company's size, each location’s staff maintains handcrafted quality, churning out fresh ice cream onsite every day. They then use twin spatulas to blend in bits of fruit and candy atop a frozen granite slab, creating custom servings of ice cream for each guest.
