Jeremy and Kaitlyn Carlson hope a Shark bites on Crispy Cones, their soft serve ice cream franchise opportunity with a new twist on the ice cream cone, in Shark Tank episode 1421. They serve their soft serve ice cream in cones made from fresh dough and grilled rotisserie-style then covered with cinnamon and sugar or crushed Oreos. They fill the cones with choice of spread (think Nutella or peanut butter), gourmet soft-serve ice cream, fruit, and a variety of delicious toppings.
Jeremy first encountered the cones while doing missionary work for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Czech Republic. He believed folks in the USA would like them, so he opened a trailer to sell them while he was a studentBrigham Young University. He and his wife opened their first storefront in Logan, Utah in May 2020 and a second in Rexburg, Idaho shortly thereafter.
Apparently, Jeremy was right. People love his cones. The couple’s goal is to franchise the concept. There’s a franchise application on their website. They likely want a Shark who’s had experience with franchising to help them grow their new concept.

Crispy Cones Shark Tank Recap
Jeremy and Kaitlyn will pitch the panel of five Sharks on the business and its prospects for growth. They’ll need to convince Mark Cuban, Barbara Corcoran, Lori Greiner, Robert Herjavec and Kevin O’Leary that the company is worthy of a Shark investment. A good business plan, good financials, and sales data will impress the Sharks, but they’ll need to show them THEY are capable of running the company to “Shark standards.” A full pitch re-cap on Crispy Cones will be available on Shark Tank Blog once this episode airs.
