The peanut butter Oreo hot fudge parfait was ordered because I saw it earlier on the Skoops Facebooks reel and I was intrigued so we drove up from Canton. The ice cream did not disappoint and definitely will be returning again in the future.

Been wanting to come here for a bit. I've heard about this place and was excited to try. We kinda…read moregot this in place of lunch. But decided to get a hot dog just to say we got some lunch. Also got the turtle sundae and a nutty buddy parfait. Both were amazingly good. Turtle Sundae was sloppy but it was a 95 degree day. And the nutty buddy was peanut butter custard with chocolate peanut butter and nutty buddy's. Super good. The hot dog was mediocre at best. But that's not what you want when you go there you want ice cream! Service was fine. Parking is right in front. Prices are kinda high but worth it. Go to get innovative ice cream treats. Share them. Cuz that's what to do get your bang for the buck. This is a repeat for sure!

The line would be out the door all day that they're open if so. These sweet treats are properly salted. The recipes are reliably followed. The aesthetics are consistent. The Thai tea is not a ghastly shade of Cheeto orange. On top of all that, the messaging left through sugar cookie icing/social media usage is actually punk rock. What's not to love?

We tried chocolate, red velvet, and vanilla cake. With Oreo butter cream, cream cheese frosting, chocolate mousse, and chocolate butter cream. The frostings were light and creamy. The cake had a small issue that they fixed right away when we discussed it. They take all feedback to help make the experience better. We even tried their tiramisu, which was excellent as well. All in all I'd recommend them as a bakery and as a wedding dessert place. Angela brought great experience with weddings and helped us get enough cakes without going overboard or breaking our budget.

Located right next door to some of the best tacos you can get in Akron, Rosita Snacks is a brand…read morenew food truck that focuses on fresh and delicious Mexican-inspired treats! I talked to the owner for a while and she told me how she has worked in a Mexican restaurant in the area for years and was always disappointed that they rarely carry any of these delicious fruit-based snacks that are so popular in Mexico. She was extremely friendly and charismatic and definitely has a passion for this new venture of hers. She offered samples of a few different items off her menu and we decided on an order of bionico. Bionico is a modern Mexican twist on a traditional fruit salad. It gained popularity in the 1990s in the city of Guadalajara, Jalisco. Rosita's version contains fresh cut papaya, cantaloupe, honeydew, strawberries, apples and banana. She offered it with toppings of granola, coconut flakes and pecans. Then it is drizzled with a generous portion of a sweet crema. The bionico was so good! It was so much better and more refreshing than the best ice cream you can get in the area. Another person ordered a Piña Loca which is another refreshing fruit-based treat. She also offers some savory snacks such as the Chicharrones Preparados and Ceviche which would go great as a side with some tacos from Taqueria El Paso next door. Everything about this experience was fantastic. The food was fresh and amazingly delicious. The service and enthusiasm for the product was great. I definitely will visit again and suggest that you make some time to try it out as well!

Paleteria La Fresa also has a rotating stock of homemade popsicles in familiar and unique flavors, from strawberry to avocado to Mexican custard! My Yelp friend who joined me for dinner and dessert there a few days ago has tried at least a dozen flavors - her favorite is avocado. This was my first visit to this restaurant and spent some time looking at the pantry stuff for sale (didn't get anything) and debating which flavor of popsicle to get for my first visit here, before ordering two Mexican street tacos and one carne asada sopes for dinner. My meal also came with unlimited chips and salsa which we immediately demolished! Ultimately, I chose to get the Mexican cake popsicle flavor which was so smooth and creamy and milky and then crunchy with Mexican chocolate slabs inside! It was very refreshing, unique, and not very expensive at 3 bucks. My tacos were saved for later (and tasted delicious a couple hours later at home) but I ate the sopes at the restaurant. It was generously piled with carne asada and the corn pancake was 1000/10! I will absolutely order sopes again! For $16.50, I had a lot of food, a nice treat, and great company. I plan to come again!
