The family business
Experience shapes business strategy BY CHRISTOPHER CORNELL ADVANTAGE EDITOR
You could say ice cream is in his blood. Kyle Gifford, age 23, has been in the ice cream retail business for most of his life. His parents, Mark and Ann Marie Gifford, were Carvel store owners for more than two decades, and previously owned The Ice Cream Shoppe, at 33 Belmont St. in Carbondale, before moving to Blakely in 2015. Gifford managed the Blakely store for some time, but now owns, and recently reopened, the Carbondale location. It has been in operation for a little more than four months. “Me owning my own ice cream store is actually a dream come true for me,” he said. “It’s something that I actually always wanted to do since I grew up in the ice cream business with my family. I have been around ice cream stores for as long as I could remember, so as soon as I graduated from Penn State, I knew what I wanted to do. I got the Carbondale store running in just a few months.” You might think this is the kind of store that would wait until warm weather to open its doors (several of its competitors close down completely for the winter), but not Gifford. “Selling ice cream in the winter is definitely totally different than in the summer,” he said. “But how we get

through the winter is with our ice cream cakes. Our ice cream cakes have became very popular recently and we always have them in stock. And what is great about the winter time and ice cream cakes is that we do a different ice cream cake for every holiday. We have Christmas cakes, Super Bowl cakes, Valentine’s Day cakes and more. so that gets us right through the winter.” There are already several established ice cream shops in the area, so, to succeed, the trick is to lure customers away from their usual haunts, Gifford said. “A lot of our customers talk about our daily specials, like ‘milkshake Monday’ ($1 off any milkshake) and ‘sundaes on Sunday’ (buy one get one free sundaes),” Gifford explained. “We also do custom ice cream cakes with only one day’s notice. You could have a custom ice cream cake with any flavor or any topping in the middle for next-day pickup.” Gifford said he has tried to set prices so the treat is affordable, even for groups. “Our goal is: we want to make it where you could bring your whole family or a whole sports team after the game and be able to afford it,” he said. Gifford also touts “the ice cream experience.” “Our employees are simply the best,” he said, “and definitely the welcoming atmosphere at our stores is great. In the summer at our Blakely store, we have the large patio that you could bring your family and sit out and enjoy ice cream when it is nice weather. We also plan to put tables outside our new Car-

We knew that it was going to go together, but how it compliments each other is amazing. It’s a unique match. It helps draw in the business because people like to pick up their
dinner and dessert at the same time.” Gifford has high hopes for the future. “I definitely want to try to grow this business,” he said. “So I definitely want to see where we could take The Ice Cream Shoppe. I think we have have a ton of potential for growth. It’s my dream to see it get as big as I know it could be.” But in the meantime, Kyle Gifford is right where he wants to be. “It is what I love to do and there is no other job I could see myself doing,” he said.

His recipe for Empanadas is rich with history and family, passed down through generat i o n s.

Weber advised cooks to watch the Empanadas carefully as they’re frying because they can b u r n q u i c k l y. T h e d o u g h s h o ul d n o t b e overstuffed, either. As far as the filling goes, Weber uses seasoned ground beef and a hard-boiled egg, but he stressed that cooks can use whatever they’d like. “I made up pepperoni pizza ones they other

I Just Hurt My Back Here a couple of tips of what to do for a new back injury. Apply ice not heat. Heat can increase inflammation and swelling which will increase your pain and prolong your recovery. Never directly apply ice to your skin, instead use a small plastic bag full of ice, a bag of frozen vegetables or a gel ice pad. Wrap the bag in a thin towel like a dish towel or wash rag.The ice should be applied for no more than 15 minutes every two hours to decrease inflammation and pain. Prolonged sitting or laying can make back pain worse. Try to stand, stretch and move around for at least a couple of minutes every 30 minutes. If the pain persists for more than 4 days, it is time to give me a call and come in to be checked to find out exactly what the problem is and get it fixed.
