I love desserts. Desserts are my passion. I’m David, the founder and co-owner of the first Chimney Cake and Ice Cream Store, Turn Dough TM in Los Angeles. As a businessman who is experienced in working with tourists and as a gourmet, I came up with the idea of opening a store in the USA. I found California to be the most appropriate area to work in for the following reason: a lot of tourists (type of people I used to work with), variety of desserts (having opponents is always good for offering better service), and finally, sunny California. Turn Dough TM is considered to be a family business since I moved from Prague to California and worked on the idea of the store together with my family. Learning about new cultures, mastering their languages and cuisines became my hobby. As an idea-maker and a person who turned his hobby into business, I want to offer to customers the experience of European serving style by presenting Turn Dough TM!
SOOOOO GOOD 😊 totally worth it, very inventive, would definitely have again!
Good ice cream!! We order the waffle cone,it delicious.
One of the best places i have ever eaten ice cream. Their cinnamon cones are the best.not to forget to mention the fresh fruits in it. Love itttt. Will definitely be back
Think the word "Gluttony" comes to mind when viewing this delicious concoction of a cold treat on a Hot Sunny day on Venice Beach in the middle of August. Though, I'm not a fan of soft serve but any real ice cream aficionado should make an exception for this any day of the week. Totally worth a stop if you are in the Venice Beach area.
