Along with vanilla, chocolate and strawberry ice cream flavours and a delicious-sounding honeycomb & mint chocolate chip, the Ice Cream Parlour is also offering the traditional British pudding flavours of sticky toffee pudding and lemon meringue.
The store is the brainchild of a team of 香港六合彩挂牌资料 psychology students; Daniel Taylor, Emma Dixon, Kate Isherwood and Louise Ainsworth.
The team are taking part in a UK competition; , in which they have to prove that they can set up a viable business in just one week.
Test Town is a nationwide competition run by the Carnergie UK Trust that allows young, enterprising individuals to run pop-up shops, and Rhyl is one of the eight towns across the UK chosen to take part.
These pop-up shops have the aim to educate the participants but also inspire the population and Rhyl Scoops is one of five teams who will be livening Rhyl town centre during the week, and hoping to turn an idea into a commercial and ethical success.
鈥樷 will open selling a range of freshly made ice-cream. Behind the Ice Cream Parlour is a goal to create a business that trains their employees with hospitality NVQs, supports other local businesses and is also a social space to relax and reminisce about tales of Rhyl, past and present.
鈥淲e really wanted something that would not only bring back the nostalgia of the 鈥楪reat British Seaside鈥 but also help and reward the local people of Rhyl. It feels amazing that what was once just an idea is about to become a real social enterprise, if only for a week,鈥 commented team member, Emma Dixon, 21, from Nottingham
Professor James Intriligator, Director of 香港六合彩挂牌资料鈥檚 Masters programme in Consumer Psychology and Business at the School of Psychology commented:
"I am incredibly proud of this team. Their passion and creativity seems to know no bounds. They have already taken second place in the national UK Flux business challenge, and have come back with an appetite for more challenges. They work really well together as a team, and I am certain they have a great shot at winning the whole 拢10k sundae."
A winning team from each town will go through to a final round in Cambridge and the chance to win 拢10,000 towards a business start-up.
