NEW JERSEY - The sweet spot of the Bayshore is set for a major upgrade next year. Jersey Freeze, the well-known local ice cream shop, is officially expanding its rapidly growing regional presence with a new franchise in Hazlet, NJ.
Jersey Freeze is Bringing Its Famous Soft Serve to the Bayshore With a New Hazlet Location
The much-anticipated dessert shop is set to open in Spring 2027 at 3091 Route 35 (right off Route 35), a much-desired sweet spot in the heart of the Hazlet community. Franchise owners Erik DePalma and Vince Forrester will run the shop and launch it with their families.
Fans of the brand will recognize the classic menu that has been the hallmark of the business throughout the state. The Route 35 location will be offering the well-known soft serve, premium hard ice cream, thick shakes, classic floats, loaded sundaes, and, of course, the famous custom ice cream cakes and packaged goods for special occasions.
The upcoming Hazlet shop represents another massive step in the company's recent aggressive expansion push. This new Bayshore storefront joins a growing lineup of New Jersey locations, anchored by the original 1952 flagship store in Freehold. The brand has expanded in recent years to include popular spots in Holmdel (inside Bell Works), Colts Neck, Old Bridge, and another upcoming franchise location slated for Shrewsbury.
