Minnesota Nice Cream was founded by Katie Romanski in 2015. She was inspired by her memories of the perfect soft serve ice cream on hot Midwestern days. Romanski traveled around the Midwest in a food truck sharing her sweet treats. After three years, Minnesota Ice Cream opened two brick-and-mortar locations: one in Northeast Minneapolis and one in downtown Stillwater.
