Why 16 Handles Beats the Competition in the Frozen Dessert Industry
When it comes to frozen desserts, there are countless options available to consumers. From traditional ice cream to frozen yogurt, gelato, sorbet, and beyond, the options can be overwhelming. However, not all frozen dessert companies are created equal, and at 16 Handles, we believe we stand out in a crowded market. Additionally, our innovative business model sets us apart from other ice cream and frozen dessert competitors in numerous ways, resulting in better profit margins and a streamlined process for opening stores in prime locations quickly and easily.
First and foremost, 16 Handles’ self-serve concept requires less labor than other frozen dessert businesses. With our unique system, customers serve themselves and pay by weight, eliminating the need for employees to scoop and portion servings. This translates to significant cost savings and higher profits for franchisees.
But it’s not just our self-serve model that sets us apart. 16 Handles also operates with better profit margins than other frozen dessert competitors. Our focus on efficiency and cost-effectiveness allows us to keep our overhead low and maximize revenue.
In addition to our superior operating model, 16 Handles also stands out for our end-to-end design and development process. We work closely with franchisees to identify prime locations and design stores that fit within those spaces while still ensuring a branded and exciting experience for customers. Our modular floor plans and efficient equipment layouts make it easy and affordable to open new stores quickly and seamlessly.
Here are a few reasons customers love 16 Handles and keep on returning:

Plus, our flavors are constantly rotating, meaning there’s always something new to try. From classic favorites like chocolate and vanilla to more adventurous options like matcha green tea and cookies and cream, we have something for everyone.
- Self-Serve Model Unlike traditional ice cream parlors, 16 Handles operates on a self-serve model. This means that customers can choose exactly how much of each flavor they want, and they can mix and match to create their own unique flavor combinations. This level of customization is not available at most other frozen dessert shops.
- Healthy Options At 16 Handles, we believe that healthy eating and indulgence can coexist. That’s why we offer a variety of dairy-free, vegan, and low-fat options for customers who want to indulge without sacrificing their health goals. Plus, we offer fresh fruit toppings and other nutritious add-ons to help customers feel good about their choices.
- Fun and Engaging Experience At 16 Handles, we believe that enjoying frozen desserts should be a fun and engaging experience. That’s why we offer a lively atmosphere, complete with bright colors, fun music, and interactive elements like our famous Flavor Wall. We want our customers to have a memorable experience every time they visit.
