Definitely stop by here for something sweet after hiking! The prices were reasonable, customer service was great, and it was nice and cozy.

Simon G.

The ice cream here are so so so so CREAMY and have great flavors. The caramel apple ice cream was a great combination. Fruity and the caramel is always a great addition! Blue moon has great texture and a little burnt cotton candy flavor to it.

We were sure to visit again today after we found Roxie's last summer. The ice cream is creamy delicious and comes in large portions. I think we more than compensated for calories burned during our Starved Rock hike ; )

Wendy L.

Loved the strawberry cheesecake ice cream! It has a strong strawberry flavor and bits of cheesecake crust scattered throughout. They offer a variety of unique flavors. Highly recommend getting the waffle cone- the chocolate one is layered with chocolate inside.

Crystal F.

Amazing ice cream and chocolates. The service is friendly and fast even when busy. Unique flavors like Oreo raspberry cheesecake and blueberry pie to die for cones, chocolates and candy

Delicious ice cream, friendly service, great end to a day of hiking! We'll have to come back for bonbons, chocolate covered pretzels & candy apples on our next trip.

If you're going to Starved Rock Park, the perfect way to end the day is by coming here. A fun painted boardwalk area holds a popcorn shop, cupcake eatery, and this quaint ice cream store. The service is superb! The owner attended us patiently and with a smile, regardless of how many flavors we tried. I tried the coffee and pistachio, and my friends loved their flavors. The ice cream is local, and all the confections are made in location. I would love to return when I'm in the area.

Purely based on food, 4. It was really good. The strawberry cheesecake, caramel pecan and butterscotch.

This store is amazing. Usually, candy in bins is a little stale, but it was so soft and fresh I couldn't believe it. We also bought the amazing rice krispy treats (dairy free)- one covered in jelly beans and one covered in nerds. Again, the jelly beans were so soft & fresh. The rice krispy treat was so gooey and delicious- I ate pieces at a time because it was so big. This store was a delightful find on a weekday when not much was open. My daughter with allergies was very happy to find some safe options. Will definitely be back next time I'm in town. read more

What a gem of a place to find while camping at Starved Rock! We enjoyed it so much we came back again the next day. The fudge (along with many of their other candies) is made on site and comes in an array of fantastic flavors, from more traditional like chocolate/caramel and peanut butter to uncommon but equally delicious flavors like strawberry, cappuccino, and birthday cake. Currently, they have a buy three pieces get one free special (which is how we ended up with 8 different flavors of fudge). They currently offer high quality ice cream from the Chocolate Shoppe out of Wisconsin, with some unique options like Exhausted Parent (bourbon espresso w/ chocolate chunks) and Munchie Madness (cake batter w/ caramel, M&Ms, Oreos, and peanut butter cups). It was such a pleasure to meet Roxie and we'll definitely be back! read more

This place is not cheap but worth it. My kids were very happy to stop and get ice cream after a long day of hiking. I bought some truffles for the road which were amazing, but the Hollands gourmet popcorn, OMG. $9 per bag but totally worth it. The brand of ice cream they sell is based out of Wisconsin and they serve it in several mom and pop ice cream shops. It's called chocolate shop and every flavor is a hit. I had the mint cookie and don't every remember the other one. All I remember is I unhinged my jaw and inhaled it. Be advised though, there are some tourists from Chicago that can be a bit rude and pushy when it's busy but the staff was extremely nice. We were bummed they were closed on a Monday when we left starved rock because we wanted to go back but I think we were just too early. Very friendly atmosphere. read more

Relatively large store that has some additional space for an assortment of other candy which are priced fairly (4-pack of Zotz for $.55 and Brownie Caramel Cow Tales for $.80). Serves Sisler's ice cream from Ohio, IL. $3.50 for one scoop, $4.75 for two. We went for the two and got a rocky road with plenty of fresh nuts and a tasty banana pudding. Plenty of seating in front and next to the store including a one of the giant adirondack chairs that are found in Utica. Bulk candy from the jars are $11/lb I think and $13/lb for chocolates. read more

We stopped here after an afternoon of hiking at Starved Rock, and the cool treats hit the spot. The ice cream portions are huge!! So make sure you burned enough calories on your hike before rewarding yourself with a treat! They are also very covid minded and pay special attention to safety and socially distancing. read more

It was all delicious and everyone raved about how it was an extra special touch to the day. The pretzels went so fast, I did not get a chance to try one and there were a lot of them. Can not give them enough thanks and kudos for a job that exceeded our expectations. They are our new go to place and I will recommend them to anyone.

I tell you what last year I was looking for someone to make a cake for my sons 1st birthday party and they did a awesome job so this year we went back and I mean our minds where blown at the detail, creative, and taste of this cake. Everyone at the party asked where this was from and I made sure to tell them. Half of them asked where is that at and I said right in Utica. The daughter who is doing these cakes is very talented and I can not wait until next year the pictures speak for them selves..also this place has a bunch of other stuff as well all around good quick stop for some sweets if you are in the area. read more

What began in my mind as a temple of decadent desserts has evolved beautifully. The Bistro now serves inspired French fare, Croque Monsieur and Madame, baked French onion soup, sweet and savory crêpes, and other thoughtfully prepared dishes. It's no longer just about chocolate, though let's be honest... the chocolate still reigns supreme. This time I visited with a friend and her absolutely adorable 2.5-year-old -- a tiny human with a very serious devotion to chocolate. Watching her delight in each bite might have been sweeter than the desserts themselves. Elegant, cozy, timeless. A place that manages to feel both special and familiar at once. And yes, still a little dangerous for anyone who claims they'll "just have one bite."

I went years never eating here and recently began coming here with girlfriends. I'd forgotten why I…read moreloved this place yrs ago. While I can't speak for the food, I have had several of their desserts and I loved them It's a cozy spot to grab a drink at the bar, a cappuccino, or a rich dessert. Service has been stellar every night we've been here. If not for the calories, I'd stop here constantly. As it is, a couple of times a month is a must

The prices are pretty okay for the high quality. A recent visit here yielded some good finds. It's known for the many chocolate products. The custom orders are where they really shine. Great for parties. Last time in here we got some of the chocolate covered cranberries and they were well liked by everyone that had these. Basically the only problem was there wasn't enough. That was one way to get people to eat fruit. Good place for locally made chocolates and candy. It's also not crazy expensive. These are perfect for parties or whatever.

We loved this placed!…read more It was very off season so we were waiting all week until Thursday when they were open to try it. Our large group of 3 families enjoyed breakfast here and the lovely staff were very accommodating to our chaos. 3 grandparents, 4 parents and 4 toddlers to order, eat and we all enjoyed ourselves. We all loved the treats, the food, and best coffee we could find in the starved rock area! I got for the 4 I was in charge of: 2 hot vanilla latte, a kids French toast with bacon, a biscuit and gravy, cream horn, cinnamon roll, and more treats I can't recall now. Highly recommend this cute little stop and if we are in the area again we'd definitely stop by!

Roxie's Sweet Confections is an amazing sweets shop straight out of dreamland. I happened upon this place after visiting Starved Rock. Roxie, the owner, was closing down but stayed open late just for my group. There is a plethora of amazing sweets available and Roxie was just as sweet. She was an absolute joy in conversation and made the experience even more wonderful. I had a milkshake, made from the ice cream in a old-fashioned milkshake machine which was incredible. The homemade fudge almost had me in tears of joy. This place is amazing and I would go significantly out of my way to visit, talk to Roxie, and grab a cup of fudge for the road. read more

We visited there from St. Louis while driving through. My wife and daughter got a cupcake from next door. It was decent. I walked to Roxies. WOW! The selection was wonderful and everything is home made. My daughter said the cake pop with homemade butter crème icing was better than the cup cake and ate most of my treat. My wife also got a bite of MY TREAT and said it was excellent. The owner was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend you stop in and skip the cupcake hype. read more

This place a is a hidden gem! Their homemade chocolate covered caramels are the best I've ever had. Fantastic ice cream served hard/ice cold (you won't get any soft/melted/refrozen ice cream like at baskin robins). French silk is my favorite. I also like how they are following CDC guidelines to keep employees and customers safe. You may have to wait outside for your turn, but once you go in someone is there to take your order. read more

All I can say is "wow". I stopped by after a long hike at Starved Rock and just couldn't believe what I was tasting. Home made fudge made from a family recipe, those incredible truffles, and that blueberry pie ice cream... I plan on going back every time I go to Starved Rock, and now I'll be going to Starved Rock more because of Roxie's. Generous, delicious, and great prices. You're also treated just like family. read more
