Erika Thomas and husband and business partner Chad Stutz plan to open the first of several planned artisanal ice cream shops in April.
High Point Creamery, located at 215 S. Holly St. in the Hilltop/Crestmoor neighborhood, will produce handcrafted ice creams using fresh ingredients. The company, which will develop innovative frozen concoctions, will offer 18 standard flavors in addition to a selection of rotating flavors emphasizing seasonality and freshness. The menu also will include an assortment of sorbets.
"We plan to offer a great ice cream experience for not only the local neighborhood but for all of Denver -- the perfect place to bring you family or your date," Thomas says.
Specialty menu items include the ice cream bombe, a molded ice cream dessert that has its origins in Victorian-era France, and an ice cream flight similar to the sampler flights at wine bars or microbreweries. All of High Point Creamery's products will be made from scratch and be kosher.
The store will feature modern decor that includes a combination of white marble tables, retro subway tiles, bleached oak, a handcrafted chalkboard menu and an outdoor seating area.
Thomas and Stutz plan to open two more locations over the next two years.
