Why it's worth checking out
Cold Rock Ice Creamery Burnie is built around customising a frozen treat to suit your mood. The shop offers ice cream in cups and cones, shakes, ice cream cakes and take-home tubs, with more than 30,000 possible combinations. Start with a flavour, then add Mix-Ins such as chocolate, cookies, fruit or nuts to create a personalised dessert rather than choosing a fixed combination.
The signature Cold Rock experience is the preparation itself. Your chosen ice cream and Mix-Ins are smashed together on the chilled Cold Rock in front of you, turning the order into part of the outing. The range covers familiar flavours including Aussie Vanilla and Bubblegum, while the Mix-Ins let customers make something as simple or elaborate as they like. Ice cream is made fresh daily using premium ingredients, and the business says its dairy is sourced from Australian cows.
For celebrations or a dessert to share, the store’s ice cream cakes are a key offering. The website promotes a range of sizes and flavours, along with cakes and tubs available to order online. Named cake options include O’Reo Kidding Me?!, Magical Unicorn, Ferraro Dreaming, Lolly Box and Iced Donut. That gives groups planning a special occasion a choice beyond individual cups or cones, while take-home tubs make it possible to save the treat for later.
Cold Rock’s story began in Australia in 1996, when an American ice cream concept was introduced locally. In 2002, the business was adapted for the Australian market, with an emphasis on Australian produce. Today, Cold Rock describes itself as a 100% Australian-owned and operated ice cream and treats business. In Burnie, it suits families, groups and anyone after a made-to-order dessert, whether that means watching a custom combination come together, choosing a cake for an occasion or picking up a tub to enjoy at home.
