    Chocolate Chip Malt
    Daphne J.

    When I travel, I usually search for some local gem to visit. This trip did not disappoint. I loved the cuteness of this place. It has a side that serves ice cream and sweet treats and one side where you can host a cute little party. When I arrived I was greeted very cheerfully and warmly, though it was the end of their work day. I had the privilege of tasting several ice cream flavors and none of them disappointed. In the end, though I ended up choosing a chocolate chip malt which was an absolutely delicious decision. I'll definitely revisit this cute and quaint shop when I'm in the area again!

    Stop here for some sweet after dinner. Lots of ice cream flavors to choose from and can be served in fancy cup if you desire. They also have a room reserve for private birthday party. They also serve sandwiches at this place. Service was good.

    Great service, friendly!! Clean atmosphere and get the Strawberry crinkle cookie for a delightful surprise!!!

    Wall of Flavors!  Make sure you check what's available before you commit! (Perhaps they could move that fan)

    We enjoyed our first trip to Sweet Thang, and I definitely appreciate the level of effort the owners and staff are doing to make this place kick off. Coming in on a hot Saturday evening, the line was nearly out the door so I'm sure that's a good sign that they found an untapped location. Walking in, the atmosphere is almost overwhelming in a good Charlie and the Chocolate Factory kind of way but naturally, it can be hard to hear the staff over the chatter of the patrons. It'd be unfair to try to compare this place with some of the more established parlors around the city since I think they are still working to find their groove. But ultimately, while the ice cream was tasty and cold, it was a bit too difficult to feel comfortable sitting there with my family. Coming in, you get first see a wall of flavors. Unfortunately, I think most patrons are conditioned to interpret that that "what's on the wall is what we have". After perusing the flavors for a minute and about to settle on a game plan, I was told that some flavors are rotated. While that is understandable, you sort of get disappointed to hear that if you had a particular one in mind. We settled on: -Apple Strudel - very tasty, not too sweet - Red-White-Blue - leaves your tongue patriotically painted, kid-approved. - Strawberry Swirl - this one had chocolate flakes and strangely-enough, didn't taste like strawberry. My little one isn't yet ready for her big sister's flavors so I was just hoping for plain strawberry flavor. Unfortunately, they didn't have plain strawberry so that kind of challenged it. If they're rotating flavors, perhaps they'll want to consider the basic three as fixed. Some other things I hope they can look at improving: - Although I'm sure it's more on the building-owner side, the airflow felt limited, and I wished it wafted a nice smell of dessert flavors as opposed. - I appreciate the bold color scheme of the walls and decor; however with so much royal blue, purple, etc; it does come off as a little dark to see. Some vibrant lighting will help drive those "social media" snaps. - A few things felt out of place and probably just got overlooked during the chaos, specifically there was a large tub of Rubbermaid storage containers just sitting next to the check-out counter at eye-level (unless they meant for those to be some decent to-go boxes).

    All flavors made in-house! Quaint ice cream shop with sandwiches too. I've only had the ice cream - various seasonal flavors.

I didn't get to go until they were a few hours in but they had a pretty good selection left. It's a small shop next door to a Honeybaked Ham in a shopping center on Black Bob. Pretty easy to get to. Has several tables inside if you wanted to sit in but we just grabbed several cupcakes, a Dubai Brownie, and a slice of Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake. While they were already sold out in a couple of my first choices (Triple Chocolate and Cosmic) they had some others I was eyeing. Lemon Blueberry, Strawberries and Cream, S'mores, and Chocolate Peanut Butter. Yummy. I think my faves were Chocolate Peanut Butter (how can you go wrong?!) and Lemon Blueberry. I haven't tasted the brownie yet but since brownie is one of my fave desserts, I imagine I'll like it. We were waited on almost immediately and they were super nice. They have a rewards program too which I get could be dangerous! lol They had quite a few different flavors of cookies as well and I noticed they had several gluten free options which is great for those who must avoid it! This is my first visit but I think they change out their flavors pretty often so I'm looking forward to trying some more!

I got one kid size scoop for the two-year-old of cotton candy flavor. I got a medium cup for the older grandchild of bubblegum flavor. And I got a medium cup for myself that was a butter brickle type with some candy in it. We took our ice cream around the corner to the seating area. It was busy while we were there, but we found a seat. I thoroughly enjoyed my ice cream and the two year-old eat all of his cotton candy flavored ice cream. The six-year-old regretted the decision of the bubblegum ice cream. I decided to try hers and I agreed, it definitely tasted like bubblegum, but after several bites, I can see where it can make a person nauseous because it was two bubblegum flavored. It pretty much would be like eating a ton of bubblegum. I let her just throw it away because I didn't want her to get sick. Next time she said she would get cotton candy instead. It's a casual atmosphere with a fun signage about picking your ice cream personality. The only thing I would say to improve is the cleanliness of the dining room and the bathroom. But we would definitely try out any location because I think their ice cream is quality.

The plushies and other merch they had was very cute and I'll very likely buy something the next time I visit. The decor was also lovely, with some very happy plants in the windows. The staff were also friendly and gave me no reason to doubt their skills. My only complaint is that the seating was just shy of being comfortable. My friend said the bench seating was a bit hard, and while the chair I sat in was soft, the arm rests made it a little too narrow for me (I'm plus size and have chronic pain, so finding truly comfortable seating can be a challenge at most places. As a note, anyone larger than a women's 3X probably wouldn't be able to comfortably sit in the chairs at all and would need to sit on the bench). Overall it was a pleasant experience, and I plan to go again!

Very clean but small so there is no seating. Everything is to go. They have a nice selection of soft drinks and you can mix in different flavors. My partner hit a Diet Coke with coconut and lime. He got a 32 oz for $2. A 44oz for $2.25. A great price! I wanted to get a coffee chiller but they come pre mixed and I couldn't order it with less sugar. I tasted his diet Diet Coke and it was really good. We also got 2 orders of pretzel bites. We got regular salted with cheese dip and done cinnamon sugar with vanilla frosting. These were pretty good. I really love pretzel bites and these were not bad but also not what would make my list of great. You get a cup with a dip of your choice for $4.50 (or close). I also got a peanut butter cookie with Nutella on top. It was cold when I got it. It was good but I learned it is much better when it's warm because it sat in the car for a bit on a warm day. It was perfect and yummy. There's a large selection of cookie combos along with other sweets. There's sever more I want to try. You can also buy a by a half dozen or dozen. While waiting for my order, I did learn I can try getting an unsweetened tea as a base and then add what l life like and it can be made half sweet. I think I'll try it with blackberry and peach purée on my next visit. The two young ladies running the store were both very nice and helpful! I'll try to get photos on my next visit.

As a diabetic,I only get to eat sweets rarely or maybe monthly haha and I really take time to decide where to go or what to have, and I wholeheartedly loved Twisted Sugar. This is located beside the UPS store on 119th Street and when I went in the evening, I was surprised by the number of flavors they have to offer! I also noticed they offer different types of drinks as well (speciality sodas, coffee, hot chocolate etc.) I got a banana cream cookie (regular size) for my husband, and I got a cookies and cream small cookie for myself. It was a perfect small bite sized cookie for me. I like the fact that they have a smaller size options because it's great portion control for someone watching their weight or someone like me who is a diabetic and doesn't want to be tempted otherwise. Note: you can literally ask them to add ANYY topping on the small ones. Banana cream cookie - the cookie base was soft and had a thick layer of banana cream. It honestly felt like enjoying a tropical drink with bananas with buttery finish. It had a very strong flavor and my husband loved it. Cookies and cream small cookie - soft, creamy, and chocolatey, sprinkled with small chocolate cookie pieces and chocolate syrup. This flavor was definitely nostalgic. Both of these cookies were priced at around $4.80, and I think that's a fantastic price. They have a cute little shop with 2-3 tables to sit and enjoy your cookies with quick service but I noticed most people were taking their orders to go. A 5/5 for me, especially since they sell small, single cookies (any flavor).
