\u201cIt\u2019s been good,\u201d he said. \u201cI feel like it\u2019s been a success. According to the time that I started, in the pandemic, it was a hard time for people to open a business. I didn\u2019t think about it. I just wanted to have a business.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Located just off the busy and business-bustling Huntsville Highway in Fayetteville, Morales\u2019 quaint ice cream shop welcomes customers with bright and cheerful colors, along with Morales and his friendly staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe always try to be friendly and keep things clean. We want people to feel welcome as soon as they walk in the door,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The shop serves gourmet popsicles, ice cream, Mexican snacks, and aguas frescas. Different from what we know as ice cream, Mexican ice cream is closer to gelato, as it has less fat and air than what is considered \u201cAmerican style,\u201d according to the website tastecooking.com. Mexican ice cream also focuses on the flavoring agents like chocolate, cinnamon, and fruit, and less emphasis on mix-ins like candies and cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Learning to make the gourmet products that the shop offers has also been a learning process for Morales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI found someone that could come and help teach me how to make the ice cream and show me the products that I needed to get for the business,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Morales added that before he officially opened, he would take the popsicles that he had made and share them with customers that were coming and going through his neighboring shops. He wanted to both get them excited about the shop and have their opinion on what they thought about the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPeople really liked it, and it made me feel good. I thought this was going to work,\u201d he said. While the learning process has been challenging at times, taking time out to learn how to make each of the delicious products that he offers allows him to have even more pride for his growing business.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Although his dream may have turned out differently than he had envisioned, Morales said he feels that this is exactly where he needs to be. He enjoys his regular customers who stop by and welcomes new visitors to come and try something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAt the end of the day, when we are closing, I look around, and I know that we are doing something right,\u201d said Morales.
