Since 1983, Marble Slab Creamery has set its standards of quality unusually high. Every batch of its super premium ice cream is homemade and it hand-rolls its freshly baked waffle cones in each store. As for mix-ins, the company offers only the freshest fruits, nuts, candies and cookies around. The Marble Slab experience starts when a customer enters one of the stores and is immediately greeted by the aroma of its freshly baked waffle cones, available in a variety of flavors ranging from vanilla cinnamon to dark chocolate with Butterfinger. Customers can then choose one of the homemade super premium ice cream flavors that include sweet cream, chocolate Swiss, strawberry, cheesecake, chocolate amaretto or butter pecan.
