Chamber Ambassadors welcomed New Member Business Twisted Gnome and got to try Dole Soft Serve samples in pineapple (Most Popular Flavor) and strawberry! Owner Cherie Larson was joined by her “Gnome Gals” and family for the ribbon cutting.
This new business has its home in The Landing Market on College Drive. Sit inside (in the air conditioning) or enjoy your cold sweet treat on the friendly patio. Cherie has built a summer-ready menu with creative and delicious flavors / combos that are smooth and indulgent. Try single flavors or take it to the next level with Floats, Gnomewiches, Buzzed Gnome Mixers, and Twisted Blends.
Great dairy free options and gluten free options (including toppings that you can also buy at Rendered Unique).
Tomorrow, June 26th, you can find Cherie at Storied Folk & Co. for a fun pop-up event: Twisted Thursday at Storied Folk & Co. with Twisted Gnome which also includes hair tinsel and braiding. (No sign-up needed. Soft serve dished up 3-7PM)
And for this weekend (June 28th, 2025) – The Landing Market celebrates 5 Years – Cherie has created a special “Birthday Cake” flavor for the shop. (She says if you do it as a twist Birthday Cake + Strawberry you can create your own Strawberry Shortcake!)
We asked the Gnome Gals their favorite flavors and they said:
Maggie – Pineapple
Brinley – Pineapple
Remi – Orange + Vanilla
Breckin – a tie between Cherry or Lime
Helen – Strawberry
