Founders Garrett and Jess trace the business to a dessert-filled first date in 2020 and an ice-cream machine that arrived in 2022. The name came from a text sent after that date, expressing enthusiasm despite the risk of rejection. Their story gives the playful branding a personal origin.
Can’t All Be Cookie is the company’s permanent cookies-and-cream flavor, with other choices rotating through the cabinet. The business says its production space is dedicated gluten-free and its ingredients are sourced accordingly. Pints can be ordered for pickup, giving the menu another use beyond eating a scoop at the shop.
The dairy-free approach does not mean every flavor is free of every allergen: the cookie flavor contains soy, and some recipes include nuts. The company describes separate scoops and other precautions but does not guarantee zero cross-contact. Its Plaza Midwood location stays open later on Friday and Saturday, making a dessert stop possible after dinner.
