EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

“Sweet Jesus” is an exciting new franchise, originally developed in Canada, for a quick-serve ice cream shop, offering a variety of beverages, pastries, and frozen desserts, including soft-soft serve ice cream with toppings.  Sweet Jesus shops operate using the franchisor’s proprietary recipes, formulae, techniques, trade dress, trademarks and logos. 

 

Sweet Jesus was born out of a love for experimentation and a shared passion for injecting creativity into the kitchen.  A few years ago, some talented chefs experimented with desserts in the back of an established restaurant.  Their creations quickly caught all sorts of attention, a trend that continued until they were forced to open their own space.  So, in September of 2015, Sweet Jesus opened its first location and has since applied creativity desserts on a daily basis.  As leaders in the confectionery game, the goal is to combine conceptual thinking with high-quality ingredients and products, in an effort to make something that tastes and looks, unlike anything you’ve ever seen and had before. 

 

It all began with elaborate soft serve concoctions, and that remains the star of the Sweet Jesus show. The goal is to combine conceptual thinking with high quality soft serve ice cream, in an effort to make something that tastes and looks unlike anything you’ve ever had before.  Some of the highlights include Krusty the Kone, Rocky Road Rage, and Cookies Cookies Cookies & Cream, but the menu is ever evolving with new seasonal creations.

 

While specialty soft serve may be the Sweet Jesus star, the beverages are a close second.  The latest lineup includes a variety of decadent shakes (with an option to inject with a cold brew concentrate for a kick of caffeine), and luxuriously self-indulgent hot chocolates.

 

Our name was created from the popular phrase that people use as an expression of enjoyment, surprise or disbelief. Our aim is not to offer commentary on anyone’s religion or belief systems.
