A favorite spot to stop and get some freshly made fudge. Can sometimes watch them making it as well. The Lemon fudge is quite good as long as you enjoy lemon-flavored sweets. Fair prices for the amount and quality.

Cute little shop. They had lots of flavor options. I really liked the ice-cream texture, soft & stretchy, if that makes sense Already ate my icecream before taking a pic lol. They’ve got benches in the city nearby to sit!

August 2023 - came here with th family. My daughters wanted some ice cream. They loved watching the employee make the fudge. Ice cream was very good, from what my children mentioned. Cookies and cream, cherry and something with peanut butter is what my daughters had. Worth visiting if you are near and then you can window shop as you enjoy your treat.

I was super happy to go here. The owners are still serving customers. This place was top notch with so many choices. Fudge is made on site and the old school way. You can even watch the process if you want. Everything was so fresh and delicious. We even got some salt water Taffy and other treats made right here in this store. Knowing that this place is right here we'll definitely be back. Thank you so much for having a great ice cream shop.

Nice little sweets shop. Lots of flavors of ice cream (Mighty Mac is my favorite) and fudge. They also have locally made caramel corn, taffy, and other sweets for sale.

Great sugar options Ice cream, fudge, and candy taffy. Plenty of options in flavors but very few were plentiful to purchase at the time I was there. There is a deal if you buy three or more pieces but if you buy one or two it is normal price of $7 a slice. There is a back door that you can ring the bell and order at the window. At the back there are some cute tables and chairs to sit and relax.
