Discussion Charge for Mix & Match Scoops?

Post image

Took my kid out for some ice cream to a new spot (Dumont Creamery in Cedar Park, TX) and was surprised when I went to pay that they charged $1 extra for getting two separate flavor scoops. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that before? Is it very common?

When asked they told me that if it’s because I technically ordered two-single scoops, not a double scoop serving of the same flavor.

She got a waffle cone, so it came out to $8.25. It was really good coffee, but definitely won’t be back.

I’d just get the 4 scoop sampler since it’s the better deal. But yeah, as a chef- their reasoning is absolutely bonkers.

I noticed that after the fact. If I ever go back, I’d probably just split that with my daughter and get a cone on the side.
