Black Mountain's blue-cone tradition

SOME PLACES SERVE ICE CREAM.
THE BLUE CONE MAKES MEMORIES.

You know the spot. Generations of Black Mountain kids have counted down the last mile in the back seat, windows down, for a cone under that blue glow.

The Blue Cone has always belonged to Black Mountain. Now a new family is carrying the tradition forward.

The new chapter

SAME BLUE CONE.
NEW CHAPTER.

This town cares about this place — loudly. The new owners get it. The name stays. The feeling stays. What changes is the energy behind the window.

"So thankful this family bought it and kept it as the Blue Cone we all love — and made it even better."
