      entrance into an Amendment to Loan Agreements with JP Morgan Chase Bank.

EX-99

                                                                    EXHIBIT 99.1


   CoolBrands International Inc. enters into Amendment to Loan Agreements with
                              JP Morgan Chase Bank

Toronto, September 2, 2005 - CoolBrands International Inc. (TSX: COB.SV.A)
today announced that it has entered into an Amendment to its existing credit
facilities with JP Morgan Chase Bank. The Amendment extends the maturity of the
existing facilities from November 1, 2005 until January 3, 2006 and waives
defaults in its financial covenants resulting from the Company's performance for
the quarter ended May 31, 2005. The Amendment eliminates all of the existing
financial covenants from the loan agreements through the remainder of the term.

This is an important step in the process of refinancing the Company's existing
credit facilities on a long term basis. The amendment to the existing credit
facilities gives the Company more time to finalize refinancing options, while
allowing the Company the flexibility to continue conducting its day-to-day
business activities as usual.

In connection with the Amendment, the Company has granted JP Morgan Chase Bank a
security interest in its personal property assets (other than certain excluded
assets relating to its operations at Americana Foods Limited Partnership),
reduced its outstanding indebtedness to the bank by US$10 million to a total of
US$41 million and has agreed to an increase of the interest rate by 200 basis
points on all remaining outstanding balances to 450 basis points over Libor. In
addition, the Amendment requires the Company to maintain US$20 million of cash
balances. As of September 1, 2005 the Company's cash balance was approximately
US$38 million.
