As Kingstowne residents, the Davis’ saw a unique opportunity to bring positive energy and a family-friendly atmosphere to their own backyard. In fact, just 10 days before the shop opened, the Davis’ welcomed their third daughter, Madison, to the Alexandria Treat Team.
Madison’s older sisters, Victoria (6) and Chloe (4) are loyal Rita’s guests and can often be seen enjoying chocolate and vanilla twist custard — with Victoria adding unicorn sprinkles to hers. The Davis’ are in the process of incorporating a food truck into their available offerings and look forward to providing the community with sweet treats for many years to come.
