Long gone are the days when treating oneself to a Dippin’ Dots ice cream required paying a hefty entrance fee to an amusement park, stadium, concert or some other type of organized special event. Granted, anyone can still enjoy Dippin’ Dots at those sorts of venues, but today, thanks to a huge distribution network, America’s favorite ice cream has never been more accessible or greater in demand. To keep up with the country’s insatiable love for Dippin’ Dots, certain schools, colleges, vending machines, and door-to door delivery services such as Uber Eats and DoorDash even carry Dippin’ Dots. Private event catering with Dippin’ Dots ice cream has also become massively popular. Now, in partnership with Farm Stores, the drive-thru bakery, grocery store, and cafe, anyone can pick up Dippin’ Dots ice cream on the go from over 25 drive-thru locations across the Miami area.
About Farm Stores
Farm Stores themselves are amazing in their own right. They provide a unique neighborhood experience. Acting as a combination of grocery store, bakery, and restaurant, Farm Stores give customers the freshest products in the most convenient manner: the equivalent of a drive-thru supermarket express lane. With everything brought to the customer’s car, Farm Stores have been the convenient last stop for families on the way home for nearly 60 years. Dippin’ Dots ice cream joins Farm Stores’ already stellar offering of staple household brands, beloved hot and freshly baked goods, and variety of beverages. Miami Dippin’ Dots lovers get a full drive-thru experience and the opportunity to pick up a range of other items all at the same time.
Happy Customers
“I can’t even imagine a world without Farm Stores”, says Mirelle Sanchez, a long-time Farm Stores customer, Dippin’ Dots lover and Miami resident. “I simply love Farm Stores freshly baked bread and always pick up my last minute household items from them after work or the kids soccer practice. It’s just so easy. Now having Dippin’ Dots available in a drive-thru is truly amazing for both me and the kids.” She, however, isn’t the only one driving away with a smile. Martin Greenburg, another long-term Miami resident, loves Farm Stores because they offer a place where he knows they will have what he needs and it will be quick. “I know if I go there, they will have the Dippin’ Dots flavors I want rather than searching around.”
The Drive-Thru Renaissance
Meanwhile, Eleazar López Contreras, co-founder of Total Snacks and Dippin’ Dots Miami, feels honored to have Farm Stores carrying Dippin’ Dots. He points out that in this post-pandemic world, the “drive-thru” model is experiencing a real renaissance. Many big and small companies in the food industry are investing heavily in their drive-thru offerings. Speed and convenience of the drive-thru model appeals to a changing customer demographic, as much as it does to efficiency and reduced overhead for food service companies. Likewise, technology is also playing a role with apps and the “Go Mobile” movement. “Farm Stores makes the perfect partner given their superior positioning and long track record in this space. I recommend everyone download their app.”

Today, Total Snacks stands out as the premier provider of snack foods and catering in Miami.
