Tammi J.

Nice ice cream shop and they had vanilla ice cream. I can never find vanilla in the supermarkets since I am only supporting B&J going forward. Shop very clean and I sales girl offered samples but I refused as I saw that as extra Calories. Please with the experience.

Small two scoops with cherry Garcia and butter pecan
Hwal L.

The things that I was NOT happy with brought the experience down, but there's no question that they make some kickarse flavours. ++ Big open space. Beachfront location, only a small block away from Virginia Beach. Butter Pecan was frozen solid unlike other flavours we got. - - The label sticks onto the bottom of the cone and is impossible to remove - there has to be ways to avoid this. Not all ice creams looked properly frozen, and my Cherry Garcia in particular was already melting IN THE FREEZER before I was served, and the same for Chunky Monkey, Mint Chocolate Chip - not good! Next time, we'd most likely try other places where ice creams are frozen solid like they should.

Had a coupon to Ben and Jerry's so I treated my kids to some Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream. I was confused why the ice cream didn't have the green dye for the mint ice cream. It was good and the kids ate it but it wasn't the same that we usually get. Friendly staff ! Would go back to this location.

The ice cream as usual is exceptional. Problem here was that they were out of soft serve and waffle cones. It's also a super busy spot on a main tourist street, yet they only had 2 people working the front. Aside from that, the ice cream choices and flavors satisfy every taste bud!

Half Baked on top, Chunky Monkey in middle , tonight dough on bottom
Ally 2.

I got three scoops of tonight dough, half baked, and chunky monkey which I recommended all those flavors since they are all good. Half baked is like a vanilla version of the tonight dough and chunky monkey is a crunchy banana nut caramel chocolate ice cream!! Ben & Jerry's never disappoints and this location actually had a few open table to sit down which was very nice.

Cinn-dough-rella. Scoop shop exclusive. It was good but Cinnamon Buns is way better.
Brian L.

Ben & Jerry's is some of my favorite ice cream. Dense, rich, tons of unique loaded flavors. Big fan of cinnamon buns. Can't find an ice cream I like better. This location is about a block or two inland from the beach. 5 minute walk from the boardwalk. Clean. Well staffed. Just like every other Ben & Jerry's they have scoop shop exclusive flavors, sundaes, milk shakes, chocolate dipped waffle cones. Loved the location and love ice cream. No complaints.

The place was packed but everyone was served quickly and efficiently. Ice cream was delicious as you would expect.

I've always loved Ben & Jerry's but paying nearly $9 for a small waffle cone is just ridiculous, and they ask for a tip on top of that.

Too expensive. No tables or chair where you can enjoy your ice cream. Won't be coming back here.

Excellent place to order a cake! Working with them to find a cake style and price point was very…read moreeasy, and their quick and professional communication gave me peace of mind when paying through their secure portal. When the cakes I was interested in were out of my budget, they offered inspiration pictures of what they could do within my budget. The cake looked beautiful and got so many compliments. It was moist and tasty, not dried out like some professional cakes are. When I wanted more of a certain color scheme, they pivoted and accommodated quickly and were very nice about it. The "icing on the cake" of their customer service was that they were worried about the meringue pops melting if I picked it up the night before because of the temperature change from their cake fridge to a regular fridge, so she came in early the next morning so I could pick it up right before the party. So many companies would have left me to deal with that on my own, but they went a step above to make sure I had a cake and experience that I was happy with. Cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Custom Cake Cakery!

I stopped by Custom Cake Cakery today to pick up some cupcakes. I used to come here before when it…read morewas a different bakery years ago. So it was my first time here since they changed. I was greeted right away. The young lady at the counter was nice, she was patient, and she answered all my questions. The store is a vibe. There are beautiful flowers and decor, and it's pretty and clean inside. There's a table inside, but it's not much space to eat there. So it's more of a pickup type of bakery. They had several different flavors of cupcakes in the display which all looked tasty!! They also sell custom cakes and other baked goods. I grabbed my cupcakes but I was taking pics for my review. So as I'm taking pics, I'm smiling and minding my business. A lady walks in and you can tell she was in a bit of a mood. She started talking to the girl behind the counter in a rude tone. So I went on taking my pics, and the counter where the register was, had several boxes, so I sat my cake box down on this little cart that had toppings. I thought it was too cute not to get a pic of. All of a sudden I hear the same tone say "please don't sit anything there"! I wasn't aware she was talking to me at first so, she said ma'am and I turned around. She told me no, don't put anything on that, we take that to shows or for catering. She said it could get scratched up or dinged. I apologized and moved the box. She was still talking. So I said ok. I mentioned there wasn't a sign up or anything to alert me that it was a problem. But I wasn't being rude or weird. I mean it literally was a small dessert box. When we both walked outside I told her I wasn't trying to be rude, I just wasn't fond of how she was speaking to me and thought the sign would help avoid conflicts in the future. She obviously didn't want to talk about it, so she said we never needed a sign because no one has ever done that before!! As if I'd broken some unspoken law. Lol. By this time I was confused as to what I did that was so wrong, I even had to giggle because this small situation didn't warrant her being snappy. I tried to give her grace because I don't know what kind of day she was having. But I'm assuming she's the owner at this point. She should definitely get her tone in check, because customers can pick up on your nice nasty approach. I thought this was going to be a good experience, but it left me confused and a little disappointed. The whole vibe was light and airy before she walked in. As for the cupcakes they were not what I expected. I got a mystery box so it was a mix of cupcakes they pick out that are leftovers from the previous day. But these had to have been from several days ago because each and every one was hard, none were moist. Very heavy cupcakes. There was carrot cake, I think a maple one, lemon blueberry, and chocolate. I noticed the carrot cake one had the after taste of raw flour.. . The chocolate one and the lemon blueberry tasted the best out of all of them, but each one of them had to much extract, except the chocolate one. I'm not just saying this because of the encounter we had. I don't hold grudges, this is an honest reaction. I had been excited to try this place because I have a sweet tooth. Maybe the fresher cupcakes taste better, so I'll give them that. But these weren't good to me. That's just my opinion, but still check them out, maybe it'll be a different experience and you may enjoy the flavors!! Again it's a gorgeous store!!

Candice was incredibly communicative during the process and worked with us to create a cake flavor that was representative of one of our favorite vacation drinks (Lime in Da Coconut). She absolutely knocked that flavor out of the park! Since she doesn't do the Banana Pudding Cake as a sample, we ordered it for a mini celebration to try before making our final decisions. She was able to make the entire thing gluten free (she makes it all from scratch) and it was delicious! As I've been to several weddings where there were gluten incidents, I decided that we would have all of our cakes be gluten free to keep everyone safe (we have several friends with Celiacs). We did a cutting cake in the Lime in Da Coconut flavor and mini cupcakes in that flavor as well as Red Velvet. The mini cupcakes are perfect for grabbing and popping in your mouth while dancing! All of our guests loved them and we had some left over to take back with us to enjoy. I will definitely be ordering from her again!

My cake and cupcakes were fabulous; absolutely the hit of our Baby Shower! We did have some…read moreissues, however, and I will note them after saying: my cake was meticulously decorated and glorious, as were the accompanying cupcakes. I wanted each cupcake decorated to the max, like little cakes. I had trouble finding a baker that would do that, and Incredible Edibles did it without question. The cupcakes were perfect and just lovely. The cake itself was done in almond chiffon and it had white chocolate mousse and raspberry filling. Topped with buttercream almond flavored frosting. It was amazing. Cupcakes were the same and also were filled just amazing! Would use this bakery again in a heartbeat! The problems we ran into: we had to rent the actual tiered cake stand for the cake and cupcakes. I thought this was kind of silly, I don't know if it's commonplace? The cake and cupcakes were very pricey, it really should have been factored in that the cake stand was a necessity and came with the order. It was $55 to rent cake stand, unless I could provide my own. I just thought this was crazy. Additionally, I was responsible for returning the cake stand to the bakery after it's used. I paid to have the cake delivered, it seems that picking the cake stand back up would've been a no-brainer but I don't know. Also, I requested paper lace wraps for the cupcakes and they were not available. These wraps are used all of the time and are even featured on their website. This would've been a simple fix. They could've ordered from Amazon for a few dollars and fulfilled my request, but instead I had to get the wraps and bring them to the bakery. I thought this was kind of a bad customer service issue. Also, there was some confusion in communicating exactly what I wanted. I never did speak to the decorator of the cake. Only a receptionist. I did not want white flowers on my cupcakes. I asked for pink, yellow, and a brighter pink. They came pink, white and yellow. They were gorgeous so it's OK now but it's not really what I wanted and I'm not surprised. If I had it to do over again, I would have gone physically to the bakery, met with the decorator and communicated my ideas on paper. These issues may sound petty, but for the price I paid I should've gotten exactly what I wanted, perfectly and had to do no running around for it. They're also difficult to reach and have very limited office hours. Bringing the lace cupcake wraps and stand to them was complicated by their availability. Just be prepared/aware. There are few bakeries that will do this kind of outstanding cake/cupcake, you'll be very pleased! Price: 70.ish for 3 layer, filled 6" cake, 54. per doz cupcakes + 55. stand rental and 55. delivery=342.ish for really small cake and 36 cupcakes all filled with white chocolate mousse/raspberry. Individually decorated cupcakes. If they'd nailed the cupcake colors and included wraps and stand, I'd absolutely say 5 stars.

I wanted something small since it was just for the two of us. They made us a "smash cake" for a great price. I paid the first half of the deposit when I placed the order, and the second half once I had the gender results. They were able to make my cake that same day! They told me 3pm and when I arrived the cake wasn't finished. I had to wait 15minutes and the piping did look a little rushed. I would have preferred they said a later time and were able to make the piping look as neat as possible. This being said I'm still impressed and grateful they made the cake on such short notice. I also requested pastel colored filling and it was very dark. Unfortunately I did not love the taste of the cake and couldn't not eat more than a few bites. The vanilla icing was overly sweet. I would be interested in going back and trying some cupcakes though! Overall the cake served its purpose at a very great price!
