The Ice Cream of the Future

Do you remember the Ice Cream of the Future?

In the 90s, Dippin' Dots changed the way we all viewed ice cream. Instead of creamy scoops of flavored ice cream, we had tiny separated balls of flavor. Revolutionary.When is the last time you had it? Even today, years after Dippin' Dots hit the market it still seems like a rare jewel that people don't know about. Try finding a free standing Dippin' Dots store, the only locations I have seen are tiny mobile carts in the middle of a mall.

Dippin' Dots remains to be this cult like phenomenon that continues to draw consumers as soon as they see the tiny balls of ice cream. Once you come across it, you feel obligated to buy it because you don't know when you're going to have it again, and you will pay a premium price for that unique taste experience. At $5.50 for a large, this is the Starbucks of ice cream.

Since its conception in 1988, Dippin' Dots has done little to change their menu, or update their brand. They know what they serve is amazing, and nothing else compares to it. Just recently they began promoting sundaes, cakes and a wider variety of flavors and combinations.

Their remarkable product has led to other knock off brands such as Molli Coolz attempting to steal market share by packaging "incredible ice cream beads" and selling it in the grocery store. If you're after the real thing you can order online and have 30 servings sent right to your home for just $135.

Welcome to the future.
