If it's over 75 degrees outside after the sun goes down, I'm gonna crave ice cream. That's just…read morebiology, friend. And I trust Bruster's Real to satiate my ice cream cravings. It seems to be the people's choice in the Lakeland area. Look no further than the line, sometimes trailing to the parking lot on summer evenings. Bruster's seems to be as popular with the Little League crowd as no homework on Fridays. The flavors may veer a bit to the saccharine, at least for the adult palate. And some flavors in particular taste more chemical/artificial than natural and homemade (looking at you Raspberry Chocolate). But if you stick with the basics (chocolate, cookies and cream, etc) Bruster's will satisfy at any age.

They do speak English there but I usually go with my Spanish speaking spouse so I know exactly what I'm getting. I always try something different and they don't disappoint.

The ice cream looked good, I only sampled the cheesecake ice cream which was good. I settled for a coconut ice pop. - not the best, it was more milk based than coconut.

I heard the eggnog was decent, the prices are also very decent compared to other ice pops. I'd return but would probably go for the ice cream instead.

You can find this sweet ice cream store in Journal Plaza in the spot formerly occupied by Lake Placid Soda & Ice Cream Works. Cherry on Top is owned by local couple, Anthony and Rene Haney. During the Caladium Festival I found myself in need of some cooling refreshment so I wandered into this adorable ice cream shop with a vintage vibe. Ice cream flavors included cotton candy, vanilla, creamsicle, birthday cake, white chocolate raspberry, and black raspberry fudge. They serve Yoders Southern Creamery ice cream made in Sarasota by the Amish. If you need non dairy, they offer two types of fruit sorbet. The young people working were so friendly and nice. I ordered a cup of my go to flavor, chocolate chip mint. It was chock full of chocolate just the way I like it. One scoop was only three dollars and change. They also offer freshly baked waffle cones , shakes, floats, and craft glass bottle sodas. There are tables out front where you can enjoy your treat and take in the comings and goings of Journal Plaza.

For the fresh waters I would recommend the cucumber, so refreshing and delicious after a hot day. PS this is a cash only spot!
