    Cute ice cream shop in downtown golden! The ice cream said it is from Magills so I guess they don't make their own? I love magills though so it's ok. I had the 7 layer coconut and the horchata. Horchata was really awesome. The 7 layer coconut didn't have all the layers as expected and was a bit disappointing. The Jack Daniel's and raspberry chocolate one was good. Especially loved the Jack Daniel's. The ice cream is always a great consistency here which I love. The store was cute and charming and had some inside seating and a patio area. People are nice as well

    These candies still exists yall. Find them here

    Waiting in the line to get ice cream, all of my fellow millennials can enjoy blast from the past candy you thought didn't exist anymore (like candy buttons!) The ice cream selection is great offering something for everyone! The kid scoops were more than enough for our kids and everyone left happy and smiling. A definite great stop for anyone adventuring around Golden! (And fun fact on the old time-y candy- the paper no longer sticks to the candy buttons which was disappointing for the adults as we watched our kids eat these hoping they got the full "paper stuck to the back of the candy" experience lol)

    Stumbled across Golden Sweets while roaming around Golden. The service was great as they offered samples of the different ice creams. All of the staff members were friendly and happy to help. The store was clean and well put together! I had the pumpkin ice cream and I wish I had gotten more because this flavor was absolutely delicious! If you're looking for a treat while in the city of Golden stop by Golden Sweets!

    Jack Daniels ice cream flavor. This large portion is their single scoop!

    This place is so cute and unique! It is located right in the heart of downtown Golden, and it has a large variety of delicious ice cream flavors to choose from. It not only has ice cream, but it has a ton of chocolate dipped sweets, as well as shelves of candy. You cannot find anywhere else. We walked here after having dinner for a sweet treat. I was in awe at all of the fun, nostalgic, candy they had. The chocolate dipped sweets in the case looked incredible as well. The large variety of flavor options made it hard to decide which one to get, but in the end, I opted for the Jack Daniels chocolate chip. You could taste all of the rich flavors perfectly. It is probably one of the best ice cream flavors I have ever had! The consistency was not a typical hard ice cream like I am used to, but I am sure the alcohol effects how it sets. It was more like soft serve . The young man working there was extremely friendly and nice. He let us taste a few ice cream flavors before deciding which one to get. Every time I have been here it has been busy, which is a testament to how good it truly is!

    This is such a cute sweet shop. We stopped by on Friday while visiting Golden. The kids both had ice cream, hubs had a malt, and I had 2 pieces of their handmade chocolate. Everything was delicious. I also like that they had some great little gift items and nostalgic candies to purchase. Service was also great and everything was very clean. This is a great little stop to feed that sweet tooth

    Great experience at Golden Sweets, the staff was very friendly and patient. We ordered 2 cones: one had cookies and cream with cookie dough and the other had red raspberry with chocolate. We were definitely happy! The cookies and cream was the best of all the flavors and the cookies in it were nice and fudgy! It's also pretty cool that they have shirts, gifts, chocolates, and truffles! I was tempted to go back in for some more sweets.

    What a gem! Tonight on our walk around Golden, to get outta Denver, we came across this spot open late. (Til 10 on a weeknight? Big plus!) The shop itself is super cute but on the small side. The younger gentleman scooping ice cream was very nice and let us sample a few things. The ice cream is quality. Some of the best I've had in Colorado so far. We will def be back to get more scoops in the future!

    Great ice cream sundae here. Line was out the door so you know it's good! Moves fast. Not a huge fan of their homemade Reese's PB Cup.

    There is something about this chocolatier that stands out from others. Is it the ambiance? Or is it…read morethe kinds of chocolate products they make? Not sure. When I found Bibamba while I was at Edgewater Food Hall to get me a plate of Ethiopian food, I stumbled up it by accident. The kind lady who was manning the register inside was above and beyond while I was sampling different types of chocolate barks along the window shelves. She explained to me that the store opened about three years ago. Really? I am pretty sure I had come here within that time frame at least once. I guess I had missed this place out of ignorance. Well, I, at least, discovered it. This is a Colorado store which imports cacao beans from Cameroon as the owner runs/owns a farm in the African country. Per the information board on the wall, the farm sustainably sources everything. I certainly appreciate businesses that focus on social responsibility. The chocolate bark samples I tried were all exquisite. After tasting, I walked around a bit to take some photos of the interior. Yes, this store is quite different than other typical chocolatiers for sure. You'll have visit it and see for yourself. The glass showcase upfront had truffles, cakes and parfaits all nicely displayed. The decadent looking cake or the parfait were tantalizing. Unfortunately, however, they were a little too big for me. Hence I decided to go with several pieces of the small chocolates as they all were of a good size. I got me two truffles and one chocolate piece. And they were.... -Black Forest Buzz Truffle -Cinnamon Roll Truffle -Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Including tax and tip, all came to less than $14. Quite decent, I thought. I enjoyed all of them but my absolute shout-out goes to the Black Forest Buzz Truffle. It was so good where I wanted to go back to the shop immediately to get me another one. Yes, I agree. As the store name says it all, this is an artisan chocolate shop. The skills and techniques they use to create those outstanding chocolate pieces are high-quality, one-of-a-kind goods that are distinguished from others. You won't taste something like this in those mass-produced ones sold at the store we go to daily. Bibamba simply became my absolute favorite chocolatier that day. The only complaint? It's not very close from my southeast Denver house!!!

    Here is why you should go here: - Small family owned and run…read morebusiness. - All Cacao comes from their 56-acre farm in Cameroon (Central Africa). - No slave labor used at all. - Only the finest ingredients used. - Everything they make and sell is organic and sustainable. Took a chocolate truffle making class and learned all about chocolate production and chocolate making. The owners are passionate about their chocolate, and it shows. First, we started with a presentation with photos of their farm in Cameroon and how they harvest, ferment, and dry their cacao beans, followed by roasting, winnowing (removing shells), and grinding into "cocoa liquor". Then bagging in 150-pound bags and shipping directly to their warehouse in Colorado. From here, their employees mix with sugar/milk and make the most organically rich and pure chocolate. It takes about a week in the melanger (mixer) for the cacao and sugar to blend into smooth, rich and creamy deliciousness. In the hands-on portion of the class, we took some of their 50% cacao and made dark chocolate truffles, rolled in a large variety of toppings--dried strawberries, pink sugar, pistachios, cookie crumble, peppermint. Of course, we all went home with lots of tasty samples to share of (eat alone.). Very interesting, tasty and fun. Their store is worth visiting as it is absolutely beautiful with numerous products on display. If you like chocolate or have a chocolate lover in your close circle --then you need to stop at Bibamba and get some chocolate love. Fun fact: Bibamba also provides their special chocolate confections to the very best restaurants in town. Finally, this class was brought to us by Slow Food Denver, a non-profit, committed to the enjoyment of local food, and who seeks to create a more just and sustainable food system. Slow Food Denver values cultivating community and connection, restoring biodiversity, celebrating food cultures, defending social and economic equality, and protecting the environment.

    Simply incredible and amazing. Take-out only. Super cute and clean inside. Lovely decor outside…read more Super friendly owner. Parking was limited, and it is way awkward to get in and out with a car. We got the "fiona" (a mango-kiwi dessert), a "scarlett" (raspberry chocolate dessert), berry-licious croissant tart, and a lemon madeleine. The "fiona" was perfectly balanced with a solid mango and kiwi flavor coming through. It had creamy component, a cake component, and a fruit component with a glaze. Not too sweet, but certainly sweet enough to satisfy a sweet tooth craving. The "scarlett" was intensely raspberry in the mousse component. The raspberry jam on top brought the sweetness to temper the tartness of the mousse, and the chocolate cake and chocolate cookie components also balanced out the dessert with a nice natural bittersweet from the cocoa component. The fruit croissant tart had nice fruit on it, and the cream component reads like a yogurt. The croissant part itself was very tasty and makes me excited to try their original butter croissant next time. And finally, the Madeleine was very impressive. I am not a fan of frosting-like stuff on Madeleines, but this worked so well because it was not too sweet. Very balanced flavors, yet again, with some of that natural bitterness again that contrasts so excellently with the flavors. If I could only use key words to describe their desserts, it would be: beautiful, balanced, complex, and natural. I won't be able to come here often due to how far away I live from here, but I know that I will be back.
