The Holy Cannoli was really good since it had a rich and creamy base and was well-balanced with sweetness and tanginess. The Red Velvet was good, although it really didn't taste like typical red velvet to me. There are many flavors offered and I think they rotate them depending on the season or trying out new items. They don't allow you to sample, which isn't great. The place has a nice aesthetic and I appreciate the indoor and outdoor seating available.

The bottom level is an ice cream shop, the rest is the factory. Today, let's go into the ice cream shop. From the outside, the building looks like a beautiful, old, rundown, tall factory...from the inside, you would think you are in a different dimension. You walk in, and your lungs are filled with the sweet smell of homemade ice cream. You also notice there is no music, the shop is playing only the sounds of other conversations, it comforts you. There is a pretty pink mural that looks like gooey shapes in the doorway to the toilets; speaking of toilets, they have two clean comfortable toilets right though that very doorway! But right in front of you is the ice cream counter, it looks so pretty. They have at least ten flavors today, all so colorful and not very common. Up above the person who is serving you is a comforting wooden sign with the amounts, prices, and containers. There are tiny sample spoons in front of you. A little farther down the counter is the toppings station with Heidi's jam, olive oil, sprinkles ect. A little farther from the toppings station is the checkout! If you turn your head about 90 degrees to the right, from the checkout, you will see the shelf where they sell merch and jam, and when you turn around, you will see the few tables they have inside. I wish I could describe what the upstairs jam factory looks like, and smells like, but there is an "employee only" sign where you go upstairs. Maybe one day I will find out, but for today, this is the end!

After visiting a few of the other stores we made our way over to La Choco Salty & Sweet to grab a quick sweet to eat and support a local shop. From the outside it looks like just a chocolate shop, but the sweets section is just a small area up front and the rest of the store is tourist type products to buy like clothing, knick-knacks, etc. The sweets area is cute, they have a little cafe type area set up for a few people to sit and they have all the chocolates on display. Most of the treats look pretty good, but the prices are a bit high for some of the things. We generally enjoy grabbing a few truffles when visiting sweet spots like this so we selected four truffles to try. They do not have clear pricing in the case for the truffles nor do they provide any kind of hint to what is inside of some of them aside from the name of the truffle. I had asked the woman working what was inside one or two of them and she seemed annoyed I asked. We ended up getting the four we picked out anyway, and I was kind of bummed afterward. Not only were they $3+ EACH but they tasted like they had sat in the display case for several days. They were a bit hard, stale and didn't really have a lot of flavor to them so I was a little upset we had spent about $17 here on five things of chocolate that weren't really anything to write home about.
