Taking a Licking

Everything's coming up liquid-nitrogen-preserved roses for Smitten Ice Cream: as rumored, they plan to expand to Rockridge in the fall, and, as not rumored, to Los Altos as well. Their rep wouldn't give us exact addresses for either shop, but the rumored Rockridge locale will be 5800 College Ave., former home of Great Harvest Bread Co. Also, the new shops will pack six freezer machines instead of four (for shorter lines) and brioche ice-cream sandwiches. [EaterWire]
