History

Marianne's Ice Cream was opened by Thomas and Lenore Becker in 1947 and named for their daughters, Mary-Lee and Annie. The shop had gone through an unknown seller before a real estate agent approached Sam and Dorothy Lieberman about entering the ice cream industry using the building, the Lieberman's agreed and bought the property in 1958. In 2012, after 55 years in business and over 250 ice cream flavors created, Sam sold the shop to Kelly Dillon and Charlie Wilcox.^[2] ^[3] In 2014, a satellite location was opened on State Park Drive in Aptos, California.^[4]
