Chicago’s Southern Suburbs are Getting Sweeter with Rainbow Cone’s New Flossmoor Location

July 03, 2024, FLOSSMOOR, Ill. – Flossmoor is getting a taste of Chicago’s favorite ice cream as The Original Rainbow Cone (Rainbow Cone) recently announced the upcoming opening of a new location at 19805 South Crawford Avenue, near Rich Township High School.

To commemorate its newest establishment in Chicagoland, just steps away from the Flossmoor Buona location, Rainbow Cone in Flossmoor will host a grand opening celebration on July 3. The festivities will begin with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10:30 a.m., and the first 50 guests in line outside the ice cream shop when the doors officially open at 11 a.m. will be treated to a free Rainbow Cone.

Since its founding in 1926, generations of Chicagoans have enjoyed the one-of-a-kind Rainbow Cone made up of slices – not scoops – of chocolate, strawberry, Palmer House (vanilla with cherries and walnuts), pistachio and orange sherbet ice cream.

In addition to single-flavor cones, sundaes, ice cream cakes, mini donuts and more, guests who visit Rainbow Cone in Flossmoor will also get a taste of the brand’s four new Sliced Creations: Orange Dream, Chocolate Obsession, Minty City and Cosmic Birthday. Unveiled in May as a historic first for the 98-year-old Chicago institution, each new flavor is a delightful twist on the classic Rainbow Cone.

“Our team is excited to bring this one-of-a-kind experience to more communities across the state where Rainbow Cone will have the opportunity to become further cemented as a treasured family tradition rather than an occasional special treat,” said Joe Buonavolanto III, Executive Vice President of The Buona Companies, the parent company of Rainbow Cone.

Rainbow Cone joined forces with Buona in 2019 to form The Buona Companies.
