    About All American Specialty Restaurants

    In the mid-1980s, frozen yogurt was growing in popularity, but there were no shops in the major malls of Idaho, Oregon and Washington serving the treat. Seeing the demand for such shops in the Pacific Northwest, CR Duffie Jr. started the All American Frozen Yogurt Co. in Portland in 1986. The company began franchising one year later.

    To reach a larger customer base, ice cream was added to the menu in 1989, and the stores became known as

    All American Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt Shops.   There are now locations in shopping centers throughout the Pacific Northwest and West.

    About Creamistry

    We at Creamistry are Ice Cream Fanatics! We believe ice cream should never be sitting in a freezer waiting to be served. Our ice cream is made-to-order, freshly prepared and frozen right in front of the customer. Combine it with great customer service and a spectacular liquid nitrogen smoke show, and you have a recipe for success. We're always looking for owners who are as passionate about ice cream as we are - franchisees who love to put smiles on people's faces with quality products, friendly staff, an enjoyable environment and one of a kind experience that will have people coming in again and again.
