Abbott’s Frozen Custard in Hamlin is closing after seven years

The time has come for Abbott’s Frozen Custard in Horizon West. 

Jennifer Pelcher, the owner of the ice cream shop, announced on social media that after seven years, her shop will be closing its doors. She opened it seven years ago and said it’s been one of the greatest blessings of her life, serving as more than a business but a family. It’s a place where birthday parties have been celebrated and teens celebrated their first jobs. 

Abbott’s Frozen Custard will remain open until product runs out or until Saturday, March 28, whichever happens first. 

“As much as I have fought to keep it going, the financial realities of running a small business have become too heavy for me to carry,” Pelcher wrote. “Rising costs and ongoing obligations have made it increasingly difficult to continue in a sustainable way. This decision was not made lightly.” 

She thanked all of her friends and family for their support since she first opened and to the entire community for coming over the years. Pelcher said she is proud of every employee who has stepped through Abbott’s doors, they’ve grown and gained confidence every day.
