Franchise News Release: Houston, TX - (Apr-1-2003)


Cold Stone Creamery Makes Its Houston Debut


If you've been waiting for fresh, super premium ice cream to come to your neighborhood, the wait is over. Cold Stone Creamery®, America's fastest-growing ice cream destination, celebrates its entry into Houston! The stores are located in the MarqE Entertainment Center and the Village Arcade Shopping Center. Both stores held their grand opening on Saturday, March 29 with a percentage of the opening week ice cream sales benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Texas Gulf Coast.

Cold Stone Creamery's ice cream, frozen yogurt and sorbet are made fresh daily at each Creamery. Guests can customize Cold Stone Creamery's ice cream and yogurt with one or more of an almost unlimited variety of mix-ins, including fresh fruit and nuts, pie fillings, brand name chocolate and gummy candies, cookie dough, soft freshly baked brownies and more. Crew members fold the mix-ins and the ice cream together on a frozen granite stone set at 16 degrees, ensuring that the concoction is blended evenly and that the ice cream maintains a creamy consistency. The result is a creamy mouthwatering dessert customized for each individual customer.

"A trip to Cold Stone Creamery is a treat for all the senses," says Jan Alba, Houston store owner. "The moment you walk into Cold Stone Creamery you'll experience the aroma of fresh-baked brownies and waffle cones, the sight of endless candies and toppings arranged above the granite stone, and the energy and enthusiasm of Creamery crew members who blend hundreds of Creations each day."

The Houston stores will be located at 7620 Katy Freeway, suite 345 in the MarqE Entertainment Center and 5510 Morningside, suite 130 in the Village Arcade shopping center. A media alert with event details, including dates and times will go out in days leading up to the grand opening.
