The Zoo Scoop Is A New Kalamazoo Ice Cream Shop

Some people will tell you that ice cream should be a summer dessert and it's too cold to enjoy the cold sweet treat in the winter. I would be one of the many people to argue that ice cream is a delicacy that should be enjoyed during any time of the year. There are several different types of ice cream and regardless of which one you like, it's the perfect cap to a great day.

There are levels to the ice cream game and those shops that make their own ice cream are some of the bests in the world. Michigan is lucky to have several of these shops spread out throughout the state, provide delicious, sweet treats to residents and visitors all year long. Michigan also has many chain ice cream shops like Coldstone, roll up, and Dairy Queen.

Kalamazoo has several independent ice cream shops within the city limits including Twister and Ritter's. Now, there is another independent shop coming to town, choosing to come in during the winter months rather than the summer. They will have to compete with the aforementioned along with the frozen yogurt shops, but they believe their special vibes will bring success.
