Frozen yogurt, gourmet popcorn and delicious custom-made frozen pies
The dictionary defines “gadzooks” as an exclamation of surprise, and there’s no doubt you will be pleasantly stunned when walking into Gadzooks’ newest location. Stationed right across from the Walmart on Highway 153 in Hixson, Gadzooks provides the area with some of the most decadent frozen yogurt available. Along with a new location, they now offer gourmet popcorn on their menu.
The family-owned-and-operated establishment first started in Fort Oglethorpe, and quickly made itself known as the area’s favorite dessert destination. With a color scheme boasting purple and grass green, Gadzooks delivers a nostalgic and imaginative escape for those striving to reconnect with the ice cream parlor of yesteryears. After merging with The Popcorn Pantry, Gadzooks changed their address from Georgia to Hixson, Tennessee and reopened with a sleek new look and a revamped menu.
Along with their delectable frozen yogurt selections, Gadzooks now offers gourmet popcorn. Branch out your popcorn taste buds with inventive flavors such as Coconut Lime, Cheddar Pretzel, Jalapeno Cheddar, and Buffalo Spice with Blue Cheese. Gadzooks provides nearly 50 different flavors on any given day.
Buy three cups of popcorn or 300, you’ve never tasted popcorn until you have tried Gadzooks’ gourmet twist on the timeless treat. Also, don’t pass up the popcorn balls. These satisfying snacks can come plain or decorated with M&Ms. Kids love them, and adults can’t get enough of their crunchy and salty taste. They’re great for after-school treats, birthday parties, weddings or baby showers.
Who can forget the frozen yogurt? Since opening in September of 2012, the frozen yogurt at Gadzooks has gained a reputation based on high quality and creative flavors. With many of their selections created with gluten-free yogurt, they make sure that all types of sweet tooths go home happy.
Whether you’re an old-fashioned froyo lover who appreciates the classics, such as strawberry, vanilla, or (triple) chocolate, or an experimenter who searches for something new like Tiger Blood or Sea Salt Caramel Pretzel, Gadzooks has got you covered. They offer 12 different frozen yogurt selections. Eat the treat in a cup or in one of their traditional waffle cones. And soon they’ll be offering delivery of both froyo and popcorn for any occasion.
Gadzooks also supports local education. They love partnering with local schools for “Spirit Night.” On these special evenings, schools can register with Gadzooks for a chance to earn 10 percent off every purchase. They also offer schools the opportunity to sell their gourmet popcorn as a fundraiser.
With a new location and a fresh menu, Gadzooks is the perfect summer spot when it’s time to beat the heat with a frozen treat. Their gourmet popcorn works perfectly as the take-home companion to a summer blockbuster movie, and the frozen yogurt is perfect for just about any time of the day. There’s no doubt that their dedicated North Georgia fan base will be road-tripping to Hixson on a regular occasion to once again taste Gadzooks’ creamy frozen yogurt flavors, and they are sure to develop a large Tennessee following as well. The Chattanooga area will be screaming “Gadzooks!” when they find out about this sweet spot.
