about stella’s ice cream
Stella’s Ice Cream was born from a passion and undying drive to find the very best desserts around the world. Our founders, Chad and Brittney Hartley, began Stella’s as a conduit for their passion for great desserts. Before having kids, the duo would drive for hours out of the way to sample the best donuts, the most amazing cookies, homemade candies, and the creamiest ice cream. Their dream was always to own their own store where friends and family could come and eat homemade ice cream and baked goods, enjoy local entertainment, and where local dessert artists could share their talents. Today, we’re proud to be strong throughout multiple locations, all proudly named after the loyal family bulldog Stella.
At Stella’s, we strive to serve joy with every scoop. We believe that ice cream has the power to make the world a little sweeter. At our stores, we are committed to celebrating differences, considering new ideas, and making ice cream that is simply better. Each day, our employees come to work with a smile on their faces, ready to make our customers happy. Every batch is made from scratch!
