We are from Lakeland TN and were in the MS area shopping today. We saw great reviews about this ice cream shop and decided to give it a try. It is a rather large place for an ice cream shop and it was HOPPING when we stopped in on Saturday night. It was so busy that the larger parking lot was full and people were parking at a nearby bank that was closed for the evening. They make all of their ice cream in house and also make homemade waffle bowls. Sadly they were out of the waffle bowls so we didn't get a chance to try those. I decided on the coconut brown sugar and it did not disappoint. It was super tasty with the perfect amount of coconut flakes. You heard me, it has actual coconut flakes instead of just having coconut flavor. That's a sign of some true homemade ice cream. My husband had the salted caramel and was enjoying it so much that I had to take a bite. It was divine as well...not your average bland caramel at all. It was super rich and tasty. Definitely give them a try if you are ever in the area. The staff were super nice and they were happy to help. They also sell pints for you to take home and enjoy some more of their tasty ice cream!

Y'all! This place is amazing! First of all, the service was friendly and fast. But I'm just gonna say it: this ice cream will make you wanna slap yo mama! So sweet & savory and the texture was just perfect. Highly recommend even if you're not in the Hernando area! Get in here and start your next addiction. I know I'll be back!

My first visit and I must say that the selection is great. Taste testing is welcome and delightful. I had lemon scoop and a strawberry scoop in a cone. Good creamy texture with good taste. Not overpowering with sugar but smooth and soulful. I recommend the waffle cone. Thanks.

The ice cream has the best consistency and is very creamy. We look forward to the new flavors that drop as well as the seasonal flavors. Kind staff and good location. The pints of ice cream hold us over to our next visit which is some the very next day
