The Original Rainbow Cone is known for its 5-flavor ice cream, and you can soon experience it for yourself!
The Original Rainbow Cone, a Chicago tradition for over 97 years, and one of America's oldest ice cream shops is coming to Orlando.
The ice cream shop that is known for its multi-flavor cones featuring orange sherbet, pistachio, vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate, opened its first Florida location in the Tampa Bay area of Bradenton in September, 2023, announcing plans to open in Orlando.
Fast forward to now, and the scoop shop has added a location at 128 Duval St. in Key West, with the Orlando location set to open on Friday, March 7 at 461 N Alafaya Trail Orlando, located within Waterford Lakes Town Center!
As the business starts the countdown to its 100th anniversary. The Original Rainbow Cone is celebrating with the grand opening if the new Orlando store on Friday, March 7, kicking off with a ribbon-cutting at 11 am, with the first 99 guests waiting in line receiving a free “Rainbow Cone.”
The Rainbow Cone is a five-layer cone featuring five delicious flavors. Chocolate, Strawberry, Palmer House (Vanilla with Cherries and Walnuts), Pistachio, and Orange Sherbet sliced (not scooped) into one smile-sparking cone, offering customers a "harmonious blend of flavors and textures in every taste.”
Rainbow Cone was founded in 1926 by "Grandpa Joe" Sapp, who was never satisfied with just one ice cream flavor and instead stacked five delicious options on a single cone for a one-of-a-kind culinary classic. The original shop's notorious pink building on Western Avenue in Chicago has been a staple in the city since it first opened its doors nearly a century ago, with hundreds of thousands of dedicated customers from around the world.
The brand has since expanded to kiosks and trucks throughout the Chicago area and launched its new franchise partner program in 2022 with franchise agreements in Florida, Nashville, Texas, and California.
"We are excited about the growth of our franchise program in Florida," says Lynn Sapp, third generation owner of The Original Rainbow Cone.
