Let the good times swirl™! Our mission is to create moments of happiness by sharing the world’s best-tasting desserts and snacks. Whether you’re craving dairy or keeping it vegan, looking for brownie bites or steering clear of gluten, we’ve got you covered. 16 Handles is dessert for the people—all the people. Flaunt your flavor, express yourself, and savor dessert your way. We think that makes life worth celebrating.
16 Handles was founded in 2008 as New York City's first self-serve frozen dessert shop. Founder Solomon Choi opened the East Village location after moving to New York with the goal of creating an inclusive, experience-focused brand that people love. More than a decade later, that's proven true: There were nine direct competitors within blocks of the original East Village location, and today, only 16 Handles remains—still a local favorite.
With dedicated local franchise partners, 16 Handles has continued to expand to become a neighborhood favorite in dozens of towns across the East Coast. We believe in being active participants in our communities, both globally and locally, alongside partners like Trees for the Future and local organizations in the towns we serve. Find a 16 Handles location near you and learn more about our initiatives.
With 16 rotating flavors and and endless toppings bar at every shop, 16 Handles believes that quality and deliciousness go hand in hand. Our library of Artisan flavors includes better-for-you frozen yogurt, all-natural ice cream, and the best vegan options on the market—like oatmilk soft serve and real fruit sorbets.
Come experience what makes 16 Handles different, and celebrate the sweetest side of life, in our shops or online for pickup or local delivery.
