Thank you to all the attendees who came to the event and voted for Coneys; we were so excited to win!

This year Coneys was honored to receive the prestigious "Best of State" 2011 award!

 Last Saturday, June 4th at the Best of State awards gala, co-owner and general manager J. Dale Christensen was there along with other statewide nominees to formally accept the 2011 Best of State award for Coneys Frozen Custard & Gourmet Dogs.

Coneys first opened in Orem, Utah in 2003 and recently opened a second location in American Fork last November. For the past eight years, Coneys has been privileged to delight Utah Valley residents and visitors with premium frozen custard, fresh food and friendly service in a clean, family environment. We are thrilled to have received this recognition and will continue to serve our customers with the superior products that live up to the "Best of State" name!

Here are the results from our recent Facebook contest where Cones fans were asked to pick one of Coneys Frozen Custard flavors that best describes them and how!

It was tough picking our top 3! We loved all the entries that were submitted! Thanks to everyone who participated!

FIRST PLACE: Nikki Hall

Prize: $25 Coneys Gift Card plus a Coneys t-shirt!

I am like Pistachio! Why you ask?

My favorite color is GREEN!

I am a nutty one that's for sure....

At first you think I am not going to like this girl (ice cream) its too different for me. Then you get to know me (try it) and wah la you're in love.

Did I mention pistachios are a little expensive? Ask my hubby he thinks I'm a little expensive too! ;)

SECOND PLACE: Lisa Shepherd

Prize: $15 Coneys Gift Card plus a Coneys t-shirt!

Rocky Road. Absolutely. I just finished serving in a political position within the county. While I loved the work and the people I served, the road was continuously rocky from "marshmallow heads" with their own agenda or "nuts" who attempt to destroy others for their own political gain. There are those who "smooth" things over like the smooth chocolate in Rocky Road frozen custard. So, for me, Rocky Road it is.

THIRD PLACE: William Ng

Prize: $10 Coneys Gift Card plus a Coneys t-shirt!

Mint chip... Mint chip left on my lip. Drips of mint chip, my mind is taking a trip with each lick. Mint chip is hip, always having me leave a tip. Sip, snip that delicious mint chip rouses me from my serene kip. Mint chip equips me with a skip and strips me of strife. Thus mint chip established my reason for this quip.

...and a surprise "Honorable Mention" to Taylor Christensen for a $5 Gift Card, too!

Growing up in Provo and attending PHS, life's been a "Rocky Road." Everyday i'm faced with challenges as I walk through the hallways of school and ride the subways of life. Luckily, not everything in life has to be a "Rocky Road." Coney's is always there to cheer me up as i can enjoy world class custard at low class prices! ;)
