Company Description

Dippin' Dots is the product of a scientist with a sweet tooth.

Today the company has a chain of more than 400 franchised locations in the US selling Dippin' Dots ice cream, frozen yogurt, and frozen ice.  The product, once billed as The Ice Cream of the Future, comes in about two dozen flavors, and is manufactured at the company's plant in Paducah, Kentucky.
