Zingerman’s Creamery Unveils New Cheese and Gelato Shop on Saturday

The Zingerman’s empire is upping its game at the Airport Plaza production facility in Ann Arbor. The company will unveil an expanded retail space under a new name Cream Top Shop on Saturday offering a host of divine sweet and savory items, according to a release.

The retail side of Cream Top Shop will primarily focus on cheeses from Zingerman’s Creamery as well as showcasing a rotating array of American made artisan cheeses and accoutrements such as olives and dried fruits. A curated selection of craft beer and wine will also be available.

Likewise, Cream Top Shop is putting its flavorful cheeses into action on gourmet made-to-order sandwiches and customizable Munchables — snack trays featuring cheeses, bread and crackers, with sides of nuts, dried fruit, and whole grain mustard.

For something a little sweeter the shop is scooping gelato and sorbet. Patrons can choose from 12 seasonal and classic flavors for a cone, sundae, malt, shake, or float. There’s also an option of Black Magic Brownie or pie à la mode.

Customers can grab a window seat in view of the production space or at one of the shop’s communal tables which will also be utilized during on-site tastings and classes.

Zingerman’s Cream Top Shop is located at 3723 Plaza Drive in Ann Arbor. The shop opens from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. Website.
