Ok, back to the donut ice cream cone. Owner Serena says she launched this last year and just brought it back for 2018.

"Our donut cones are filled with chocolate ganache and coated in cinnamon sugar. Toppings are also available." Serena says you can also get a donut ice cream sandwich.

We tried it and we thought the cone itself was delicious. It was soft and fresh. You could tell it had been recently baked. It kind of tasted like a cider mill cinnamon donut.

The combination donut/ice cream actually didn't work too well for us. The tastes didn't really compliment each other well like they do when you have, for instance, a cookie ice cream sandwich. For some reason that works great, while this just didn't.
Your opinion may differ and we encourage you to try this as it's definitely something you don't see everyday.

As for the donuts... they are delicious and there's plenty of variety with some unusual flavors.

What's great is, because there are different flavors made each day, you never know what you'll find when you walk in.

"We use the highest quality and freshest ingredients in all of our handcrafted donuts, homemade fillings, glazes and toppings," said owner Serena. "Our artisan donuts are made from scratch in house everyday. We also now offer a Vegan donut everyday."
