The “lore” of Abbott’s Frozen Custard dates to 1902 when a young Arthur Abbott traveling with small carnivals along the eastern seaboard, began perfecting his recipe for frozen custard. He peddled his dessert for the most part to support his love of the horse races, little did he know the impact his treat would have on the public.

In 1926, tired of the constant travel he settled in Rochester, New York. He opened up shop at the corner of Lake and Beach Avenues, across the street from Ontario Beach Park, which at the time was a bustling amusement park that drew crowds of people from all over the state. Soon people started lining up by the hundreds to enjoy the frozen custard that Arthur created.

Never content to stay in one place too long, Arthur was attracted to the Playland at Rye Beach. He opened up several successful shops in the park, and was enjoying the fruits of his labor. He never lost the love of the horses, as a matter of fact with his businesses he could afford to buy his own horse, and that is just what he did.In 1952 Arthur struck it rich when his prized horse, Blue Man, won the Preakness Stakes, earning Arthur an astonishing $86,135. Now in his seventies, and financially comfortable, Arthur was seriously considering the prospect of hanging up his scoops for good.
