We started in Libertyville during COVID with just our cart and 6 flavor options. We have been there growing and serving up smiles ever since. Sadly we have to close our Liberty location. This is a hard decision and it’s is solely based on the rise in costs and our inability to sustain this location, often paying our hard working kids out of our own pocket.
We do have some wholesale availability at Woodmans and Heinens.
We THANK YOU LIBERTYVILLE for welcoming us with open arms! Thank you for welcoming us into your families and making us apart of your special events and days. 🥰Your stories and laughter…happy tastebuds and smiles are what have kept us going in good times and bad.❤️
We wish you all a Happy Holiday Season and much success in all of your adventures!
Be well Libertyville!
