My favorites to take home are their brownie and cookie dough flavors. There's a bench outside of the store and a few tables to enjoy your ice cream.

The shop is a bit small, but we were served right away. The small cup size gives you two flavors, and I opted for their Mango and Raspberry flavor. Mango and Raspberry: They are labeled as vegan and it was a very good sorbet gelato. It was tart and not overly sweet, which I appreciated. Both the flavors worked well together and harmonized. And for two scoops in a small, they give you ample amount of the frozen treat to satisfy your sweet tooth. Overall, I can see myself coming back here again.

Not hard to bite into. I love the traditional milk chocolate but their season flavors are unique and very good. I've only had the pumpkin spice and the s'mores. I didn't think I would enjoy the s'mores one but, man!!! The marshmallows are perfection!!! They're baked like campfire style so they've got that crisp on the outside yet chewy on the inside.

Glancing at the menu, you can tell that After By Tori is pricier than your average bulk box of cookies at a grocery store, but you get the high quality that you pay for :-) They are open and receptive to feedback on their products and packaging as well. On social media, you are gifted with the additional treat of behind-the-scenes photos and videos as orders are being fulfilled and new recipes are being explored.
