Freezia has ice cream in a roll
Ice cream with choices of several sauces and about 100 flavors are the specialty of Freezia, a new business at 112 E. Seltice Way (east of the White House Grill), Post Falls.
Owners Shawn and Mandi Carr discovered rolled ice cream made on a machine in Thailand. Using his homemade ice cream recipes, they bought a machine to make products that are fresher and flavorful with many options. About the size of birthday cake candles, the rolled ice cream (with all its flavors and sauces) nodules are put vertically into a cup and covered with more treats.
The customers watch the process and can enjoy the results at several tables or take it to go. Hours are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday and until 9 p.m. Sundays. Phone 457-3504.
