It may not seem like it to outsiders, but Minnesotans have a great need for the cooling, sweet taste of ice cream. Our state may be known for its cold, but our summers are surprisingly humid. For that reason, the Land of 10,000 Lakes has many great ice cream shops spread throughout the state. In just about every town, you can find somewhere to grab a scoop of this sweet, cold treat. One of the most inventive ice cream shops in Minnesota opened a few years ago in St. Paul. Ever since, it’s grown steadily into a popular spot for all who love unique, delicious ice cream. Take a look:
Wonders Ice Cream has rapidly expanded into several locations in t he Twin Cities and beyond. But this ice cream shop originally opened along University Avenue in St. Paul, Minnesota. Address: 298 University Avenue West, Saint Paul, MN 55103.

But what makes Wonders Ice Cream so special? This shop is known for its rolled ice cream. That is, ice milk is spread across a freezing counter, combined with ingredients, and rolled. It’s the first rolled ice cream shop in Minnesota!
