A JellyBean at the bottom of your cone and huge scoops are difference makers for Wilson’s

“At my favorite ice cream store in Door County Wisconsin. They put a jelly bean at the bottom of the ice cream cone. So it doesn’t drip. They also give the biggest scoop ever. It’s tradition. The girls who scoop the ice cream live upstairs. There is never a night in the summer where the line is short and everyone happily stands on the porch waiting. They were featured on the Travel Channel. And were sold for a few million dollars a few years ago. Not bad for a ice cream store.”
