Andy's Frozen Custard is a chain of United States frozen custard stores with locations in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas and Illinois. Company headquarters are in Springfield, Missouri, where the company's namesake Andy Kuntz runs the business. Frozen custard-based desserts filled with fresh ingredients are the company's specialty. In 2009, after six months of tournament-style eliminations, Andy's Frozen Custard was voted the best thing about area code 417 by readers of 417 Magazine.
Andy's was founded by John and Carol Kuntz in 1986 in Osage Beach, Missouri, after the couple first tasted frozen custard in Wisconsin. Desiring to bring frozen custard to Missouri, they dedicated themselves to creating a frozen custard brand of their own. They sought the mentorship of Leon and Doris Schneider, who had owned a Milwaukee frozen custard shop since 1942; Leon provided much of the knowledge and guidance the Kuntzes needed to open their own store. The shop was named after their son Andy.
In the time of silence
I saw a trace for my will to be
While in the remnants of my heart
I saw them shine through clouded eyes
In the depths of the night
I reached beyond the brightest stars…
And I touch your wings with my remorse
As I drain my fountain of spring
My deepest reverence
My exposed serenity
From the depths of my boundless heart
I pledge myself to thee
My days of novelty have decayed
I find myself at the end of infinity
