If you want a sweet treat, you may have considered visiting Class 502 Rolling Ice Cream in Houston, TX.
Located in Katy, it’s a cute little place with some tasty desserts, including rolled ice cream. In Thailand, rolled ice cream has a slightly different texture than regular ice cream. Creating it involves hand-rolling ice cream into beautiful spiral shapes, then stacking them vertically in a bowl.
Once you’ve added toppings and sauces, you’re left with a beautiful, Instagram-worthy dessert.
There aren’t many places in Houston creating rolled ice cream just yet, so if you want to try it, Class 502 is worth a visit. Here’s what we think about it, from the food and drinks they offer to the amenities and customer service.
