ABOUT

After working 25 years in the Information Technology industry, Gary Rhodes decided to mix things up a little bit. Owning an ice cream shop had long been a dream that started with his first job at Swensen's Ice Cream in Montgomery, Alabama. There he started out as a dishwasher and worked his way up to ice cream maker.  

​

​Fannie Lou was his maternal grandmother. She had a great love for making and sharing desserts. She always had something ready for whomever might stop by, a pound cake, a cobbler, a brownie, cookies, some sort of crazy Jell-O dessert, or Gary's favorite, tea cakes. In the summer, Gary and his brother would go stay with Fannie Lou and would often make homemade ice cream. The old-fashioned vanilla was great but she liked trying new recipes adding fruits or candies. The end product was always tasty. 

​

​Many of our ice creams are inspired by some of Fannie Lou's favorite dessert recipes with others having a Pensacola connection and of course some of your all-time favorites. We do hope you will stop by to try some of Fannie’s favorites but more importantly we hope we can provide a little happiness and joy in your day every time you visit.

 

We hope to see you soon!
