Couple of Scoops - where everyone is valued

Our Mission: More Than Just Ice Cream & Candy

 At Couple of Scoops, we serve more than ice cream, we serve our community.

Our mission is to create meaningful employment opportunities for individuals with Autism and other Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, building a workplace where everyone feels valued, included, and empowered to succeed.

Every scoop helps create opportunities, build confidence, and make our community a little sweeter.

Why We Scoop - Molly & Her Friends

 Couple of Scoops began with a dad, a dream, and a daughter named Molly.

After creating employment opportunities through Couple of Socks, Molly's dad saw another way to bring people together. Since Molly loves people and ice cream, Couple of Scoops was born—a place where sweet treats create meaningful jobs and lasting connections.

Every scoop reminds us that inclusion makes life a little sweeter.

Get Involved - Be Intentional

 Every purchase at Couple of Scoops supports meaningful employment for individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.

Help us spread the word, host a fundraiser, bring your group to visit, or simply share our story. Together, we can create a more inclusive community—one scoop at a time.

Much more than an Ice Cream & Candy store

Step Into Fun

At Couple of Scoops, walking through our doors feels like stepping back into fun. Think bold colors, shiny counters, red chairs, and the warm glow of hanging lights. Every detail is designed to capture the playful spirit of an old-fashioned, yet colorful ice cream parlor with tons of candy. 

A Place to Gather

Our shop is more than a stop for dessert or a candy treat—it’s a place to linger, laugh, and make memories. Families can settle into cozy chairs, kids can peek over the counter to watch their scoops being served, and friends can catch up while sharing a sundae or their favorite scoop of candy. 

Sweet Connections

Behind the smiles and scoops is something deeper: every scoop is served by a team built on inclusion and belonging. We are proud to provide meaningful jobs for adults with Intellectual &  Developmental Disabilities, our shop is really more about our people and giving them an opportuniuty to thrive, using ice cream and candy as a vehicle to do such is a bonus. 

An Experience to Remember

From the moment you hear the jingle of the door, the last bite of your cone, or the last piece of candy in your bag, we want every visit to feel like a treat for the senses. Bright colors, friendly faces, and joy in sharing a “couple of scoops”, we hope will keep you coming back, we hope, again and again.
