Our Story
The Frosty Flounder is a vintage ice cream truck bringing joy to The Crystal Coast NC, with delicious treats and a nostalgic vibe. The Frosty Flounder was founded by me, Karen Dee, a resident of Emerald Isle in Carteret County. Once my husband retired from the USMC, I decided it was time to try something new and open a business. I love ice cream, and always loved the ice cream truck that came through my neighborhood as a child, so I decided it was time to bring that vintage feeling to my home for my child and her friends. I did all the work to the truck to customize it for the business, I even drove it 12.5 hours straight to bring the truck home several states away. This little business is my passion, and I hope it brings you joy when I come through your neighborhood, or you see my sweet little pink truck at your event.
