Usually some high school seniors or college kids on a summer job, I think. Today I went and it was early in the season, midday, so I may have been taken care of by the owner or manager, and she was really great. Gave my dog a pup cup and water while I worked on my Dole Whip, even giving me no side eye when I spilled some of the water trying to hold all the cups. Every treat I've had there has been great. My fave is the cherry dole whip. They rotate the dole whip flavors weekly I think. If you go midday there's barely a wait, if any. If you go in the summer right after youth softball or baseball games from like 8pm on, the line will be at least 25 deep. But it's worth it. Did I mention cash only?

The store is small, only fits 1 party at a time, the staffs are very friendly!! You will not disappoint!!

I have heard about this ice cream parlor and stumbled upon it by happenstance; I didn't even…read morerealize this is where it was. They had some amazing looking ice cream cakes! And a great selection of ice cream to choose from. We were a bit in a hurry and I didn't want to mess with ice cream and a toddler on the move, so I got a hot chocolate for us to share. It's unlike any hot chocolate I've ever had--it's hot, but they make it with ice cream so that first sip or two is both hot and cold. It is delicious and delightful and may be my new favorite hot chocolate. As the weather warms up and we head out here for swim lessons and whatnot, I'll look forward to stopping by for ice cream, which is my favorite. And I'm definitely checking out their ice cream cakes because I'll bet the little ones would love it!

I still can't quite…read morefigure out the sweet spot for price-to-brownie size when I visit local bakeries; the brownies here feel a little small for the price, but they were mostly tasty. We tried a range of flavors and my family liked what they tasted, but no one was that interested in running out again the following weekend to try them again, even driving by the location to remind them of the place we had visited. Silverland is the kind of place I like having near the highway so that I can pick up treats on the way to work or a social engagement if I've forgotten to make something at home. It's also a small shop with just a table or two off to the side, so I don't think it's a place I would stop to dine in. There's also parking nearby, assuming you are not on foot for a visit here!

The day started with a craving for something chocolate and this bakery seriously satisfied it! I bought the genache, double chocolate truffle, caramel and cheesecake.

I told the nice gentleman who waited on me that this was my first time visiting and he gave me the history of the shop and the owner while neatly wrapping up my brownies. Definitely try these brownies.

I'm sure she had a lot of stuff to do to close the shop but she took her time explaining what they had available as well as instructions for re-heating. We took home two mini pies (the chocolate chess was exceptionally good) plus two slices of chicken pot pie that we froze and ate about a week later. Even out of the freezer, the crust was flaky and buttery. As if the wonderful pie and service wasn't enough, this place has wonderful values. It's so nice to support a business that brings it on every level. Will definitely be back.
