The weather may be colder and the nights might be drawing in, but that doesn’t mean that ice cream has to come off the menu. A delicious sundae with a warm hot chocolate might be just the thing to get you through the winter months. Check out our list of some of the best places for a frozen treat.
1. Sweet Escape
Annandale’s own iced treat boutique has a welcoming, bohemian atmosphere with a menu to match. Fall specialties include the caramel apple pie sundae with warm cinnamon apples and caramel sauce, while the cotton candy sundae features both fluffy and crunchy toppings with marshmallow drizzle. Chocolate, candies, cakes, and cookies are also available, and you can even pick up a cute souvenir at the gift shop.
2. What’s the Scoop?
With over forty varieties of old-fashioned hard scoop, from licorice to strawberry cheesecake, this establishment offers a precise blend of flavor and creamy sweetness. The generous helpings are served in a cone or cup, or you can build your own sundae in a waffle cone with your choice of topping, whipped cream, and a cherry. And for a special occasion, you can order a 7-inch frozen cream cake in-store.
Cinnamon and pumpkin pie flavors have been added to the autumn menu, and a selection of hot dogs is also available.
3. The Ember Coffee Company
A good coffee shop is already a tempting destination when the weather turns chilly, but a cold dessert might just make it ideal. There are dairy-free options on offer and with two, three, or even four scoop dishes available, you’ll be sure to leave satisfied.
If the changing weather has you feeling topsy-turvy, it’s worth taking the trip to Buffalo. The dual climate control in your Ford F150 will keep you comfortable until you can recalibrate with a steaming affogato.
4. Amore
With nine scoops, chocolate and strawberry toppings, crushed pineapple, whipped cream, and a cherry, the Amore banana split has to be seen to be believed. And there are plenty of other options to satisfy your sugar craving. You can opt to take your sundae in a homemade cookie bowl, and there’s a huge range of creative flavors. Even the dairy-free options are exciting, with mango carrot and oreo soy among the choices on offer.
Any excursion is better with a sundae at the end of it, so these destinations give you the perfect excuse to get out of the house this weekend. And to make sure that the drive is part of the treat, stop by and see us at Lundeen Brothers Ford of Annandale to find the best car for your family’s needs.
