There are all sorts of ways to eat your ice cream. You can slap it in a bowl, or scoop it into a plain jane cake cone or a slightly sweet sugar cone. You could upgrade to a crisp waffle cone if you like, but if you want to really go big, may we introduce you to the fabulous bubble waffle cone? You can give one of these beauties a try at Cream & Sugar Ice Cream Company in Bay City.
“It’s kind of like a Belgian waffle,” said Krista Scott, operations manager for Cream & Sugar Ice Cream Company. “They come out crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside, and they’re absolutely delicious.”
Cream & Sugar Ice Cream’s bubble waffle cone is our pick for Sweet Treat of the Week, a series highlighting people and products from around Michigan who are using Pioneer Sugar in their creations.
Cream & Sugar just celebrated their one year anniversary. The company partnered with Michigan Sugar Company and the Michigan Milk Producers Association to create the new spot for locally sourced ice cream in Bay City.
Check out our interview below with Scott, where we discuss using locally sourced products, and how to make a bubble cone.

Cream & Sugar’s bubble waffle cone forms a unique base with which to enjoy their house made ice cream, which they offer in sixteen different flavors. Each and every cone is made to order in a specially designed waffle iron. A sweetened batter gets squirted in, and then cooked for about two minutes. It then gets removed, and cools in a form to shape into a cone shape. While it’s a lot of work to make these cones to order, “It’s so worth it,” Scott said.
The company can make upwards of a hundred bubble waffle cones a day. “They keep us very busy,” Scott said. The cones have gained a loyal following on social media, with many people visiting because they saw them there first, according to Scott. ‘It’s been really awesome, people will come in and say ‘I want that cone that I saw my friend post the other day.’ It’s a lot of fun."
All the ice cream is made in house, using locally sourced sugar and milk, and natural flavors. Scott picked one of their most popular flavors to fill that bubble cone with, Michigan Sugar Cookie. Sweet vanilla custard gets mixed with house made brown sugar cookie crumbles for this one. “It’s absolutely amazing, and it’s been one of my favorite flavors since the beginning," Scott said.
Scott also recommended the Dairy Farmer’s Delight, which is a vanilla custard with chocolate covered caramel chunks and a ribbon of caramel running through it. Scott also is a fan of adding a drizzle of caramel and fudge to the top of the cone, and we really can’t argue with that idea.
Located in the Uptown development along the river in Bay City, Cream & Sugar Ice Cream Company is not only a local favorite, they are proud to be using so many locally sourced ingredient in their ice cream and cones. “It’s so fun to be involved with the community, and be local, and have everyone really be excited about it,” Scott said.
