News About Chicago’s Rainbow Cone
In a partnership with the family that owns the Buona Beef chain, Rainbow Cone is looking for franchisees to bring the colorful dessert business to other states in the Midwest and the South.
“Grandpa” Joe Sapp started Rainbow Cone in 1926, and granddaughter Lynn Sapp does the honors now. It’s famous for his piled-high combination of chocolate, strawberry, Palmer House (New York vanilla with cherries and walnut), pistachio, and orange sherbet. It’s served sliced, not scooped.
How does that sound?
