#99, Dubl Twister, Danbury

99 flavors of ice cream on the wall, 99 flavors….

Just off the Western Connecticut State University campus is the Dubl Twister ice cream shop that is celebrating 50 years in operation! We were lucky to meet the owners, an Albanian couple who have owned the shop since 2014, and operate two Dubl Twister locations, Danbury and New York City.

Lucy, who has worked at Dubl Twister for several years was on call and quickly found The Connecticut Ice Cream Quest online and we enjoyed some playful banter about ice cream and our Knights of the Roundtable Quest!

I had the usual…a medium coffee milkshake with a scoop of chocolate. Maureen had her fave, chocolate soft serve with chocolate sprinkles on a wafer cone. The shake was good and thick and very tasty while Mo’s soft serve was some of the best she has had. But there are many, many options and some might say “99 flavors of ice cream on the wall.” We will definitely try something different next time

They have a long list of hard ice cream flavors and multiple toppings but the long counter showing the ice cream is very impressive. They offer cups, cones, shakes, floats, sundaes, cakes and ice cream sandwiches. Their ice cream is made on site and transported to NYC and offered at Candlewood Creamery in New Fairfield.

Dubl Twister is a pleasant, nostalgic shop and has a long history in Danbury. This won’t be our last time here and should be on your bucket list when visiting western Connecticut. Congratulations on 50 years of keeping WestConn students tummies filled with ice cream and cheers to the next 50 years!
