Just look at it. LOOK!

Five stars for the huge delicious waffle cone full of silky swirl custard... with patriotic sprinkles. Almost too much to eat. Well, it would be too much for most. And it's just a short hop away from Thai Place, which is a killer spot for some yummy Thai food (up there with the best I've had in Metro Detroit). Perfect dinner and desert combo.

This board is always being updated with new, yummy items!

Best soft serve and custard Downriver! They also have fun hard ice cream flavors to choose from. They literally have something for everyone, popsicles, parfaits, dipped cones, sundaes, floats, coolers, you name it! They even have a drive-thru that's usually open all day before 5 pm. Must try if you haven't already, and the service is always super fast, so don't let the line scare you!

This is a "single".

This place is my all time favorite ice cream. The dairy is fresh and locally sourced from their own…read morefarm. Lines always move fast and service is great. Ask to sample vanilla is a baseline must try to get a sense of the quality. The milkshakes and sundaes are great too. A very nice laid back vibe to hang out with friends in the summer with the picnic table seating Also if you want fresh local milk. The store has the best and they even have reusable glass bottles.

Moodith: A Calder Bros. Love Letter A confession from a…read moredairy addict with no plans for recovery When I was little, I lived with my grandparents in a house that still had a milk chute by the side door. Some of my earliest memories are of Gram accidentally locking us out. She'd give me a leg up, and I'd clamber through that tiny door like some pint-sized action hero. Without fail, I'd crash into the brass umbrella stand and send it tumbling down the basement stairs, which sounded like a car crash. But after landing in a heap, I'd pop up, fling the door open, and beam like Fievel finally finding his family and fitting into his giant hat. Now, Calder's might not be sliding bottles through chutes anymore, but they will still deliver to your doorstep: milk, eggs, butter, the whole wholesome package. This is a lifesaver for my 96-year-old Gram, who doesn't exactly "pop into Meijer" the way she used to. Downriver might not be a postcard neighborhood, but Calder's honestly dignifies it just by existing. But let's get real: I'm here to talk about the eggnog. This is not your run-of-the-mill jug. It's eggnog with the viscosity of wet cement and the caloric density of my future regrets. It's one of the main reasons I'll never hit my "target weight," unless that target is simply "rotund." Here's the thing...I have a dairy problem. When I was a teen, I once complained to my doctor about my loud stomach. She suggested I give up dairy. I laughed directly in her face. Given that I'm usually pathologically polite, that was basically the emotional equivalent of slapping her. If my family ever staged an intervention and gave me an ultimatum, dairy would win, and it would be the loss of a pretty good family. My addictions, in rough order, look like this: 1. Dairy. 2. Buying stuff I don't need (but swear I'll use). 3. Caffeine. 4. A practiced devotion to the unattainable (sigh/fml). 5. Hoarding premium gel pens like they're rare Pokémon. So yeah, Calder's doesn't just have a customer for life. They may very well end up as the surprise beneficiary of my estate someday. Picture it: a modest inheritance left not to wayward relatives, but to the cows themselves...my final act of dairy philanthropy.
