Amy's Ice Creams
 PROFILE
When the Texas sun gets to be too much, Texans scream for Amy's Ice Creams. Amy's outlandish ice-cream scoopers (staff members sometimes sport unusual piercings or funky hats and are encouraged to put on a show) dish out ice cream from a rotating list of more than 200 varieties, including Guinness and Shiner Bock (that's right, beer) flavors. The company operates eight stores in the Lone Star State (five in Austin, two in Houston, and one in San Antonio). It also caters, and its ice cream is available at dozens of Austin and Houston eateries. Owner and CEO Amy Miller founded Amy's Ice Creams in Austin with a check (according to company lore, it was hot) in 1985. Cofounders Rob Wilder and Scott Shaw still have an ownership interest.
