Sometimes you are driving through a small Connecticut town and you simply stumble past a small…read morecandy and dessert shop, so what are you supposed to do? Well, you stop and give it a try. I was passing through Brooklyn yesterday when I stumbled across Sadie's Sweet Shop with just a little bit of time to kill. This small shop had a ton of candy that seems to be made by then (I got some rock candy for my wife) and of course the main reason I stopped, ice cream. I ended up getting a two scoop cone with some sort of almond joy scoop as well as the flavour I look for everywhere, Cookie Monster. Both flavours of ice cream were solid and I have zero complaints. This might be the first time I had almond joy ice cream and I thought it was pretty good. Overall, this was a small review for a small ice cream shop. Sadie's Sweet Shop had small town vibes and served simple and tasty ice cream. Can't really ask for much else can you?

After all, they make their own 16% premium ice cream in dozens of flavors. You'll see a long narrow building with an ordering window and a few menu boards advertising the flavors and serving options (cups, cones, sundaes, frappes, floats, and cakes). On the right side of the building is a country store selling pre-packaged beef, pork, dairy, groceries, and clothing. We did see a pretty good sale on $10 sweatpants! But on this rainy day we stopped for ice cream and picked up two cones for under $10. My wife went with Cricket Crunch (Vanilla ice cream with mint cookies and chocolate chips) and I went with Ayrshire Chip (Strawberry ice cream with chocolate chips). We both thought the ice cream was extraordinary, with a creamy texture, excellent flavors, and yummy chocolate chips. There isn't any seating inside, save for a bench, but there is plenty outside under a tent. Today was raining, so the tent seating was drenched, and we had our cones in the car. The rainy weather and muddy grounds also discouraged us from walking over to the barns to see the animals, which surely are a big hit with visiting children. So, if you' and your loved ones are ice cream nerds like we are, head on over to Connecticut's Quiet Corner and enjoy a sweet experience.

We drove for over an hour from New Haven to this place-of-no-where, and still felt it was definitely worthy. Coconut: Just a small spoonful released a rich milky aroma that quickly spreaded across the tongue, like a mouthful of cool, moist milk powder. A larger bite revealed a milky richness that transcends words, leaving only a soul-stirring enjoyment. It maintained the natural and gentle sweetness and fragrance of America's coconut ice cream, striking a beautiful balance without being overpowering. The texture was also incredibly smooth and delicate, yet not sticky, with an elegant, creamy sheen. Salted Caramel Crunch: Equally smooth in texture and rich in milk flavor, it was noticeably sweeter, but the balance of salt and caramel bitterness made it just right.

There are 28 variety of apples which compared to the one I work at which has 13. 130 acers in comparison to to the 82 at ours. The bags are sold at 2$ a pound so a half bushel filled will be around $40 and a peck will be roughly $20. My opinion get the bang for your buck and go all out. Creston apples are phenomenal! Reminds me of a ginger gold, great crunch, awesome flavor! I told my buddy here needs to buy these for his farm. Love the fact that a lot of rows are done in trellis style which I never seen before and make a great deal of sense for tree to acreage. They are also very manageable for picking that everything for me (6'1" tall) is grabbing reach. So you smaller people do not have to do all that jumping ;) Being the weekend before Columbus weekend the trees are on their last stretch of apples but the middle of the rows still have plenty for picking. The farm itself has blueberries, peaches, plums and pears too but certainly now out of season. The store itself is a nice treat. I filled a bag full of goodies to accommodate my sweet tooth but also to support the farm. The store is open seven days a week seven months out of the year.
