Ice cream shop in Fresno sold after 22 years. See the new concept and name

The original owner, Jack Rocha, spent more than 20 years behind the counter, scooping ice cream onto a frozen slab, preparing mix-ins and baking cookies, but Morgan won’t be doing that for a simple reason. Morgan is a little girl. She’s the daughter of the new owner, John Orellana, who bought the shop from Rocha at the beginning of October. Rocha opened the shop almost 22 years ago. “It was a good time and I found a great buyer,” Rocha said. Before the store was Jack’s Sweets and Treats, it was Marble Slab.
