"A TikTok user highlighted the prices at a Cold Stone Creamery outlet in New York city's Times Square, listing a pint of ice cream going for $16.99, a quart for $21.99, and a triple pint for $27.99. The poster expressed outrage, stating they would 'die on a cross ... and be buried alive' before paying that much for ice cream."
"On a Reddit thread, one user commented they paid $13 for an artisan lemon curd and blueberry basil ice cream from a local business, describing it as 'amazing' but 'still a stretch,' and said they could not imagine spending 30% more for Cold Stone's 'mass-produced' product."
"The triple-pint of Cold Stone Creamery ice cream is more expensive in New York than a sit-down meal, with a cheesesteak at Katz's Delicatessen costing $24.95."
Cold Stone Creamery offers super-premium ice cream made in-house daily, allowing customers to customize their orders. However, prices at some locations have drawn criticism, particularly a New York City outlet where a pint costs $16.99. A TikTok video highlighting these prices gained traction, leading to discussions on social media about the value of Cold Stone's offerings compared to local artisan ice creams. Many customers expressed disbelief at the high prices, suggesting they would prefer to invest in an ice cream maker instead.
