Cloud Cups is set to revolutionize the Philly dessert scene with the grand opening of its new gelato scoop shop, cafe, and production facility. The first 100 visitors will receive free gelato.
At the heart of Cloud Cups’ grand opening are the crafted gelato flavors with an inaugural lineup that includes collaborations with French Toast Bites by Lokal Artisan Foods and the Elkins Park Cheesecake Lady, paying homage to the late Charisse McGill. This collaborative spirit is a core aspect of Cloud Cups’ mission, aiming to uplift and support minority-owned businesses through unique and mouthwatering creations.
Cloud Cups goes beyond traditional gelato offerings by introducing all-natural gelato-scented candles, exclusive merchandise, and an innovative non-dairy vegan line of gelato. The new production facility will increase the capacity for nationwide shipping and citywide delivery and foster collaborations that can redefine the landscape of artisanal desserts.
Owner and Gelato Artist Galen Thomas has poured his passion and creativity into transforming the new space into a cloud-themed haven. From custom murals by a beloved artist to a ceiling-to-floor makeover, every detail of Cloud Cups’ shop and cafe is designed to immerse visitors in a unique and enchanting world.
The support from Shift Capital and MaKen Studios and the anticipation of future partnerships with notable food entities highlight the collaborative ecosystem that Cloud Cups is fostering. These alliances are not just business transactions but a shared vision for uplifting the community and creating a space where everyone is welcome.
The grand opening on March 19th is a celebration of a new beginning and a declaration of its dedication to excellence, innovation, and community support. As we welcome spring with open arms and free scoops of gelato, Cloud Cups stands ready to embark on a journey that promises to redefine what it means to enjoy dessert.
