From Bedtime Stories to Invention Journals: The Story of ColdSnap

When nightly bedtime stories grew dull for Matt Fonte and his two daughters, Sierra and Fiona, they decided to swap bedtime stories for a more creative past-time: invention journals. Topping the list of problems to solve: how do we a create single-serve ice cream machine that’s easy to use?

The girls considered a Keurig-style machine that could generate ice cream in about two minutes, and without the mess. Matt, a serial entrepreneur, saw potential in this idea. In late 2018, ColdSnap was formed with a singular objective: to transform the way frozen confections are produced, transported, purchased, and enjoyed!
