The chocolates and ice creams have been consistently tasty. Some of my favorite sweets/recommendations are: caramel sea salt dark (and milk) chocolate, raspberry heart chocolate, spicy chocolate ice cream, lavender sorbet, and many more! The people I've visited the parlor with liked the chocolate ice cream, superman ice cream, grapefruit sorbet, and a variety of chocolates. Try it all for yourself! P.S. - The chocolates make great gifts!

Heading south from Sheboygan with my family I had a craving for ice cream, so I pulled up the…read moreoptions around Port Washington. The "best" local place that was open in January was The Chocolate Chisel. My family and I stopped and each got a cone. I also got three truffles. The truffles I bought were chai tea milk, experimint milk (ganache with peppermint extract), and peppermint hot chocolate. The chai tea and experimint milk truffles both tasted like they should based on their descriptions, but I wouldn't wantto buy either again. The peppermint hot chocolate had some crushed peppermint on top, but other than the chocolate being in the shape of a mug, nothing about it reminded me of hot chocolate. Ultimately I don't think any of them were worth the price. The ice cream was lackluster. Both of my kids got cookies and cream in a cake cone and thought it was skimpy on the cookies part. My wife and I sprung for waffle cones with ours and were both disappointed in the excessive cone to ice cream ratio that heavily favored the cone. She got plain chocolate and it was fine. I, however, got banana-rama and ended up throwing it out because it tasted more like butter pecan than anything banana related. I even went back inside and verified with the employee that it wasn't mislabeled in the case.

Well, if you live in Grafton, WI, your running days are over! Pete's Pops is open on the corner across from the Grafton Hotel facing John's Pizzaria and the plaza where the Christmas tree lights every year! Costing as little as $4 each, and yes, you can charge that, you can skip or walk right up to the window and order a frosty treat for yourself and one for your 4 legged K-9 friend! I had the root beer float and was not disappointed!!! Soooo, no these are not Good Humor flavors! They are MUCH BETTER than the sugar laden kid nonsense you remember on the truck! I assure you, however, your vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free children and friends will love being able to get an affordable treat on a hot day while listening to music from the plaza or just hanging out in Grafton. Parents won't mind the ingredients -- go on line and check it out! The staff in the window is friendly and excited to be here in Grafton all the way from down South (a.k.a. Milwaukee)! So make them feel welcome and tell them what's good here in the Village. Oh! Somebody go explain that Village vs Town thing! Make sure they know to which municipal hall they should pay their bills -- especially since one is only a block away and one is literally halfway across TOWN! LOL Alright, enough with the semantics. Go get the best popsicles you'll probably ever taste. I highly recommend the root beer float. Make sure you leave one for me, though!

It's a mini Airstream parked off the main street, and there strung up lights and picnic tables. We ordered: +a scoop of Butter Pecan on a waffle cone +a scoop of Caramel Collision on a kiddie cone - this was caramel ice cream with caramel swirls and chocolate coated caramel mini cups The ice cream was okay, but not sure if they are keeping the freezer cold enough; it was already melting when the employees were handing the cones to us. The big thing: I just thought it was super gross that the employees who were preparing the ice cream treats/cones were not using gloves; the kiddie cones didn't have a paper slip since it was too small, but the waffle cones did, and the employees were still handling it incorrectly. UGH. I'm glad I was able to check this place out, but the sanitary situation was just a bit too much for me. +gloveless handling of ice cream/cones

The ice cream is ridiculously smooth, rich, and packed with flavor--like you can tell right away this isn't your average scoop. Everything is handcrafted with high-quality ingredients, and they even rotate unique flavors that keep you coming back just to see what's new. From classics to wild combos (yes... whiskey ice cream is a thing), every bite hits. And let's talk portions... that "double scoop" is basically a challenge in disguise. No complaints though. The vibe is awesome too--laid back, creative, and full of energy. It feels like one of those spots you stumble into and immediately know it's gonna be a regular stop. Fast service too! Honestly, it felt like stepping into a Kangra Knova track-- "Take you up so high... into outer space" because that's exactly what this ice cream does

It couldn't be more convenient to where they live and we went after dinner one evening. There were plenty of interesting flavors to choose from the night we went. I opted for the Blackberry Limeade pop. It was flavorful and refreshing - I could really taste both the blackberry and limeade in each bite. There aren't any frills here - no real seating, no napkins with your purchase. The popsicles are certainly a hit with many and I like that the flavors definitely seem to change and evolve (based on what my niece told me about ones she has tried). They are fresh-made and include options that are Vegan. It was certainly a refreshing treat during a summer visit to Whitefish Bay!

Milk Chocolate Peanut Cups: I don't know if there's a better combination with milk chocolate than…read morepeanut butter. It's important that each component be just right or it can ruin the cup though. The Nutman Company was founded in 1992 in Hubertus, WI. Not that I dislike Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (quite the opposite), but Nutman's version is easily superior and possibly the best I've ever had. After having these I could easily go without ever having Reese's again (gasp). The milk chocolate is smooth & creamy. Biting into the chocolate, it's very soft & the creamy peanut butter innards are quickly exposed. Reese's has a chunkier and more solid peanut butter core. The core of this product is more velvety & smooth. It's not in a messy liquid state, but it's not nearly as firm as Reese's and other brands either. It reminds me of peanut butter chocolates from another local WI candy maker (Quality Candy/Buddy Squirrel). Just like those other brands, Nutman's version is Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews
