East Mill Bakery


 Today we took a bittersweet last venture to East Mill Bakery. It was an excellent end to our ice cream extravaganza. We hope you enjoyed joining us on this journey.

Let's delve into the atmosphere and service. We were greeted by beautiful floral arrangements in old fashioned milk jugs to pay homage to the milk house. (its previous title, go kine!!!) Then as soon as we stepped in our noses were filled with a pleasant aroma. The interior was relaxing and cute. We thought the complimentary lemon and strawberry water was a nice touch. 

Now onto the part that you've all been waiting for, the ice cream! We each only sampled one flavor today, and they are *drum roll* located in the upper right corner... PECAN TOFFEE CARAMEL STUFF! And second, but by no means less important... COOKIES AND CREAM! (there were no given names) All of the ice cream seemed to be homemade. 

Pecan toffee caramel stuff: This flavor was a delightful blend of caramel pecan and toffee flavors, evenly distributed. In addition to the ice cream, the caramel also tasted homemade. "I don't really like pecans, but it worked."- Amy 

Cookies and cream: East Mill's cookies and cream was an excellent rendition of an old classic.  "It had an excellent balance between icy and creamy." -Joey

While we thoroughly enjoyed our ice cream visit, there a few things we have to mention. Their spoons could have been of higher grade material, and more sturdy. One thing we also found strange was the fact that their ice creams were not titled.

To close this last post, we would like to thank each individual fan, but as there are far too many of you, we will just thank you all as one unit. So thank you.  


Sending our love for ice cream,

Your local ice cream experts

Sweet Memories Ice Cream Review

We will start this review by covering the service and atmosphere. We both agreed that the atmosphere of Sweet Memories was the best of any place we have been to. It was very whimsical and extremely well suited for tourists. It seemed old fashioned and very relaxed. There was only one man working there but he did a very good job, and very honest about his lack of knowledge concerning the Blue Moon ice cream flavor.


We tried two kinds of ice cream each.

Malt Amor'
      It was great if you like Malted Milk Balls.

Cookies & Cream
     Just your typical Cookies & Cream, nothing to see here.

Blue Moon
      Subtle Almond taste, the more it rolls around atop your tongue the stronger the almond taste. "It was simply ice cream, that was quite aesthetically pleasing." ~ Amy

Black Raspberry Truffle.
       The raspberry flavor was quite delicious and it mixed well with the small chocolate truffles inside. "I was hoping for a delicious fruity flavor as I walked to Sweet Memories and that's just what I got with Black Raspberry Truffle!!" ~Joey
