Dessert shops Great American Cookies and Marble Slab Creamery opened a co-branded location in Manvel in January.

The details

Though the store opened in January, staff will celebrate with a grand opening party on March 1, where visitors can get a free original chocolate chip, sugar or double fudge cookie between noon-3 p.m., according to an email from a business representative.

The new location brings together the sister brands and will offer cookie cakes, homemade ice cream with unlimited mix-ins, as well as create-your-own-cookie shakes and ice cream shakes, per the email.
