North State Street is about to get a whole lot sweeter. Frosti Ice Cream is preparing to scoop into 606 N State Street in Bunnell, with plans for ice cream, milkshakes, Italian ice and coffee at the new shop. Co-owner Ashot Zatikyan has confirmed the project and says the menu will feature dairy-free choices aimed at lactose-intolerant customers, giving Bunnell’s downtown strip another small-business player in the mix.
Plans, filings and a promise
According to What Now, plan-review documents filed by Zatikyan list Frosti’s address as 606 N State Street. Zatikyan told the outlet, “It’s going to be milkshakes, ice cream, Italian ice, and coffee and iced tea.” That coverage also points to a recent Facebook image teasing dairy-free flavors, including Black Cherry, Chocolate Chip, Mint Chocolate Chip, Oreo and Vanilla. Public business records that list Zatikyan as a registered agent for local firms, as shown in the Florida Division of Corporations, help tie the operator directly to the area.
Menu highlights
The concept blends classic frozen-dessert staples with quick coffee and grab-and-go options, positioning the shop to catch both afternoon foot traffic and nighttime visitors. Dairy-free selections sit front and center on the pre-opening menu preview, opening the door for customers who usually have to skip the ice cream stop. Pricing and a specific opening date have not yet been announced.
Where it fits on State Street
Frosti is slated to join a compact commercial stretch of North State Street that already includes spots like Rehab Sports Bar, Los Dos Potrillos Mexican Restaurant and Domenech Corner, according to local business listings. That mix of late-night bar crowds and daytime family diners gives a new dessert counter several built-in customer streams to tap. Local directories already list Frosti as “opening soon” at the 606 N State Street address.
Why dairy-free matters
Retail and market data point to rising demand for plant-based and dairy-free frozen treats as shoppers look for options tied to lactose intolerance, personal diet choices or environmental concerns. Industry forecasts suggest that the dairy-free category is set to keep growing, which helps explain why independent shops are stacking their menus with non-dairy flavors.

How to follow
For now, there is no firm opening date on the calendar. Local directories list Frosti at 606 N State Street, and the shop’s social channels are expected to carry progress updates and word of a grand-opening event. Keep an eye on those listings and feeds for the first look at flavor lineups once scoops start hitting the counter.
