    Absolutely love this spot. The lady at the window so sweet and told us about the menu as 1st timers. The place is so cute and we really enjoyed ou treats. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

    One of my favorite dessert places when the weather changes for the spring and summer. I love the customer service. Everyone is so kind. I love the different flavors and variety of snowballs. I love the strawberry cheesecake one. And I also enjoy the fresh made beignets, they're always so fluffy.

    Strawberry shortcake
    Kimberly L.

    Female owned! Drove up from DC to try this place and 100/10 will be doing it again. There was a nice crowd for a Saturday at 2:30pm but we didn't wait long. The owner came out to say hi to us and was very friendly. We tried the strawberry shortcake ice + ice cream blend and it was perfect. Great balance of flavor and texture. We also got an order of beignets and those did not disappoint either. Can't wait to go back!

    Key Lime Pie

    I will admit, when I saw ice cream mixed with a snowball I was hesitant. But boy was I WRONG. I got the key lime pie and honestly I think it changed my life. I've been thinking about it ever since.

    Service here was so wonderful! The woman as the window was so sweet! Love the energy here and the decor too, it creates a very honey and vibrant ambiance. We got the berry lemonade in the size princess, and oh my gosh it was insanely refreshing! Prices are more than fair here and we inhaled the shaved ice. Definitely one of the best shaved ice places I've ever been to! We will be back:) Bring your friends, bring your family, this place is a must visit!

    Butter my Honey - Queen cup

    Super cute place - could not have been treated better! This is great for the surrounding neighborhood but if you don't live there nearby parking is very difficult to find. Went there a few times before I was actually able to find close parking the other day. I chose Butter my Honey in the Queen size and the flavors were very good. It was almost $12. The order process was smooth and a young lady delivered it to me outside on a serving tray. Again, a terrific place to stop if on the way to visit Fort McHenry.

    Great for a light dessert after a meal. Very refreshing. I would probably add an icecream topping next time.

    King size almond ( in New Orleans this would be wedding cake).

    Love to go to Ice Queens. They have the best snoballs and other delicious treats. They always have a quick moving line. I usually get almond flavored snowball. But they also have beignets. You can also get ice cream and dessert such as peach cobbler. You should check them out. Also look for their popups. Www.icequeensllc.org

    I went here on a Sunday around 3:30 and there was a small crowd. We were able to get our items quickly after we ordered though it took a little while to order. There is a window that you order from and there is one cashier to take the order. The customer service was great. I was able to try the ice cone flavors. There were so many flavors and combination of flavors to choose from. They also had other treats like benigets, brownies, and cakes. They had Takhara brothers ice cream and I'm a huge fan of their ice cream, so I was excited to get the key lime, but it head run out. The clerk offered me other options and told me about the mango, guava, pineapple ice topped with fruit, so I decided to try it. I am so glad that I did. It was really flavorful and refreshing. There was cute outdoor seating that was well maintained. I will most definitely come back here.

    This place is fantastic! There are so many flavors and combinations to try that you'll never get bored. I'm partial to mango/blood orange but everything is great here. I learned from the owner that they specialize in Baltimore snow cones with a New Orleans twist. It's also a Black woman owned shop, so that's another plus. I will be back!

    Ice Queens - I'm a huge fan!!! This black- and woman-owned New Orleans-style snoball business deserves all the hype, the love, and your stomach space! We came here after having a meal in the area, and it was such a nice treat to have in the sweltering summer heat! The syrups that they use are not the typical overly syrupy sweetness that you get from other places/trucks - they also seem generous with the amount, because you're not just chomping on sno that's naked! The flavors are so yummy, and bonus points that they are aesthetically pleasing! The staff here are super friendly and welcoming, and they are more than happy to make recommendations or explain some of their flavor combos. There are a couple of bistro tables outside to enjoy your treat, or you can get it to go. Note that currently, it seems to be just a walk-up only! Parking can be found in the residential area. Check this place out - you won't be disappointed! +delicious snoballs! +friendly staff! +residential street parking available

    WOW!! This is the best snowball I've ever had! Other places I had snowball, it's like you're just eating ice and syrup. But, this place.. you can actually taste and enjoy the snowball. I really enjoyed my Strawberry My Strawberry - strawberry ice cream and strawberry snowball with fresh strawberries. My husband got the Orange creamsicle and that flavoring was on the much sweeter side. We thought the Cream would be vanilla ice cream or just vanilla taste but it was marshmallow taste so they threw us off. Overall, would come back and recommend. Prices aren't bad either.

    So after this place being featured on Yelp for women's history month and someone singing me this location I felt like the first day it was 80 degrees would be the perfect day for me to stop by. They are right on the corner and right across the street from a park also. Everyone was very inviting and had no problem answering all of my questions (I tend to have a lot) lol. This was my first time trying snowballs! As a new Baltimore resident I feel like I had to as a right of passage. I got a small blood orange one with marshmallow topping. There were a few patio chairs and tables for people to enjoy. I would have liked for there to be more and more comfortable furniture for us. Overall everything was really good and refreshing! I also got the fried donuts (drawing a blank on how to spell lol) they were super fresh! Definitely going back and bringing my pup on a hot day !

Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.

I also prefer stuffed doughnuts (like a good Boston cream, etc) but they don't have many options for those. Instead it seems they prefer to put a dollop of the cream in the hole on top.

There were only 2 people working, so there were a bunch of people waiting for their orders and service was slow. One person was at the cashier, the other was packing doughnuts, making breakfast sandwiches, and the coffees. We waited 5 minutes in line and then another 10-15 minutes for them to pack our 4 donuts. I wanted to get a sandwich but figured the wait was too long. On to the donuts - I liked the blueberry basil and blackberry lime donuts. The blueberry basil flavor wasn't super strong but it was well balanced. The blackberry lime was my favorite - sweet and a little tart. The crobar (croissant-donut) texture was awesome but I did not rally taste the cranberry or orange advertised. The buttercream frosting on top was sickeningly sweet so ended up scraping that off...finally the coffee donut. Not my favorite but not bad - it tasted like instant coffee and was kinda punchy coffee flavor, bitter. But I liked that the bitter offset the sweet. Overall, it's a fun place for a gourmet donut but be sure to not get here when it's too busy and to come early - they sell out of fun flavors fast!
