It's ice cream with some creative toppings. I had this like chrome silver over my ice cream that was extremely fun to eat and aesthetically pleasing. Price is questionable, especially for the gold, but it's all good. Yummy!!! read more

This may be the best bubble tea I've tasted ever. It has that authentic White Rabbit milk candy taste growing up. And to taste it in bubble tea form is amazing. Of course I had to travel all the way to Canada for this as this is not available in the U.S. Tiger Sugar may hold first place as the best brown sugar boba tea franchise but I'm sorry this place is hands down the best when it comes to bubble tea in my sugar fest addiction. Even the soft serve was rich in the White Rabbit milk candy taste. We got the silver foil wrap because it was the inexpensive option and cool enough to take photos with. If only they brought this chain to NY. Sigh... read more

This small shop doesn't have a large selection on the menu but it's not necessary. They have unique soft serve flavours like white rabbit, lemon tea, ovaltine, horlicks to choose from. I found the lemon tea was very true to flavour and so good. The white rabbit was quite good as well but I really love the matcha. I should mention that it's a fairly large serving that you're given. It's not cheap but if you sign up with Fivestars they text you with discounts once in a while. This is more of a takeaway shop than a place to hangout as there isn't much seating or room to stand around. read more

This place has really pretty (and really expensive) desserts. For those who like bling, they even have gold and silver soft serve ice cream (and both come in bling and super bling [not the official names] versions) The Milo soft serve was pretty good - very smooth and not too heavy. The Uji Matcha soft serve was very smooth too and used high quality green tea - I could taste the powder. It was somewhat bitter and thus something of an acquired taste. It wasn't really sweet so as not to overwhelm the matcha flavour The desserts here are interesting but this place is really too expensive to be anything more than an occasional stop. Also, unfortunately they only accept Debit and WeChat pay. No cash even read more

The last time we were here was when it first opened. We had their soft serve ice cream and loved it. This time.... wasn't as great. We came to see what the hype was all about for their white rabbit brown sugar tapioca milk tea. White rabbit was a childhood favourite, so we had high hopes. Sadly, we both couldn't taste the white rabbit flavour. It mostly tasted like the brown sugar tapioca, which was tasty, but def not what we were expecting or hoped for. The drink comes in one size only, which is small (too small for our liking) and costs $6 plus tax (cash only). Not worth it in our opinion. I guess next time we'll stick to just having their soft serve ice cream. read more

***bring cash as that's the only method of payment they accept*** I've come here several times when they first opened but could never seem to catch them being open when their hours stated they would be.... That made me extremely skeptical about their business practices as if I can't trust when they say they're going to be open, I don't really have a lot to go off on as a customer. This time around, I went after dinner one night so I had a feeling that they had to be open! I completely understand why their pricing for edible gold and silver are priced so high but I don't fully grasp why anyone would actually pay to consume it. On a partially related note, I don't fully understand why their different flavors are at different price points. In theory, shouldn't all prices be the same across all the flavors of ice cream? That's what I think about it anyways but I can't recall what the price of a cone/cup is. [Roasted Oolong] - this was originally what my friend ordered. She ordered her ice cream in a cup but also wanted a cone so they accommodated her by serving it to her with a cone upturned over the softserve! This was delicious as she let me try a little spoonful of hers. I actually ended up swapping ice creams with her because I was not fond of the ube one at all.... [Ube] - Google says that "ube" means purple yam so I'm going with that! I typically love when things are ube flavored but I guess for some reason, not the one from this specific place.... I thought it tasted far more earth-like than I was comfortable with but I think that's just my own opinion. My friend said she didn't mind it so she consumed it on my behalf instead. I think I'd recommend this place if you're looking for a different variety of flavors that you can't typically get in soft serve! Consult their Instagram page to see what their current flavors are as they update it pretty regularly. Usually, places only have the same old flavors of vanilla and chocolate so coming here once in a while to see what flavors they have won't put a huge dent in your wallet :D read more

I saw a post on Instagram of Milo ice cream in a black cone and it immediately caught my attention. Additional posts had Ovaltine and Horlicks ice cream, all soft serve. OMG! Is this real? I grew up with these flavours as a kid and I really enjoyed them. I shared this discovery with some friends and they got just as excited! A mob of ten of us headed over there to try it! On this night, they had Milo and Horlicks, no Ovaltine. I chose the Horlicks in a black charcoal cone, while some opted for Milo, and some had regular cones or cups. Damn, this was good, not cheap, but good! It brought back good memories. I sampled the Milo and it was just as good. I'm looking forward to trying the Ovaltine another day. The ice cream was nice and creamy and the charcoal cone was very crunchy. Next time, I'm going to try something and throw some grapenuts (another childhood favourite) on it for added texture! If anybody steals this idea before I try it, let me know how it turns out. I enjoyed this so much, I ended up there again the next day, with another group of friends. They all enjoyed it too. Now I just have to try the Ovaltine. read more

Friendly staff, decent ice cream, limited flavours in a hole in the wall. Service: The staff were very friendly and inviting, and explained the options (not many). You get one flavour if you want the ice cream in a cone, or up to two if you want it in a cup. Food: The ice cream was nice and the matcha flavour was there, although not very strong. The ice cream wasn't filled to the bottom of the cone and it was hollow near the centre, but it was very thick/dense. Overall: It's quite expensive for what it is, but decent if you're craving soft serve matcha/ube/horlicks ice cream. Tip: Enter in your phone number at checkout for a discount with FiveStars. read more

Matcha Tea & Dessert - Regular ice cream - Desserts Near Me - Markham, Ontario

To get to Mat.cha you'll first need to find parking in the mess of a parking at Commerce Gate, enter through the door and find the entrance to this little sweet shop on the right, across from the Alley. The first thing that draws you to the shop is the advertisement of different flavours you probably wouldn't find anywhere else - this is the uniqueness of Mat.cha. You don't get the vanilla, the chocolate or strawberry soft serve. You get common asian flavours such a Horlick, Ovaltine, Milo, and most recently White Rabbit (candy). I went on two occasions due to my love for both the white rabbit candy and the Milo chocolate malt drink. Both soft serves had the perfect swirl and were served in the black charcoal sugar cone. The cone itself has no flavour profile other than a regular sugar cone. The white rabbit was refreshing. It had a very light white rabbit candy taste. You don't actually notice that flavour until you get the aftertaste. For those who don't know what white rabbit tastes like, don't be frightened. It's not an animal. It's actually a milk based sugar candy... tastes like condensed milk in candy form. The milo was good - I personally prefer milo over white rabbit. The flavour was true to the milo taste - chocolate malt. There wasn't a moment where I was guessing what the flavour was. Overall, would I pay this much for the ice cream? Probably not. But it was enjoyable to get childhood favourites in a soft serve. read more

LOL HYPE HYPE HYPE!!! It is not real. I've never been one to listen to toronto blogs or "instagram foodies" in terms of deciding where to eat. This place is just your ol' typical asian soft serve ice cream. Comes in handy on a hot day but the taste isn't all there. The service here is alright, not fast but not slow. They take their time to make sure the ice cream sits perfectly on the cone. Matcha ice cream taste - very bland on matcha, the cone is whatever Red bean ice cream taste - this is the only thing here that brings the rating up. This is pretty unique and does have a nice red bean flavour #WhenYouCarryTheTeam The regular ice creams are around $5, I always get that mini one- I find the regular way too big. I also saw they have charcoal ice cream now- with gold flakes... it's almost $12!!! Let me tell you.. charcoal ice cream is not that big of a hoot. It tastes like straight vanilla. Gold flakes also have no flavour. If you're buying this, I guarantee you're only buying it to take a pic for your instagram and if you're a kind of person to splurge just to show off for social media, I feel bad for ya man. But good on Matcha for knowing the #basic clientele they have nowadays, eh? $$$ for them. (haha I bet I just offended half of you reading this. As I always say- I never point out names, but if the shoe fits...) All in all, Matcha needs to step up their matcha game. If you're looking for a nice matcha flavour, I'd go down to tendou and grab a cone there instead. read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review for Matcha yet. This little shop is located at Commerce Gate and you might miss it if you're not looking for it. It's located right beside The Alley with the cutest little table and chairs out front. The standard menu includes Matcha, Sesame & Red Bean. My favourite of these three is Sesame. I've only had the Matcha once and it seemed a little powdery so I haven't ordered it since. The taste was similar to Tsujiri but more creamy + sweet. I've also had a sample of the Red Bean but I'm not a fan of Red Bean. What's most captivating to me is their limited edition flavours. They have their famous Charcoal cone with Gold or Silver foil which has been taking over instagram. The Charcoal is a mix of coconut and vanilla (not my personal fav). I do want to try their plethora of limited edition flavours ranging from Marshmellow, Lavender, Japanese Ramune, London Fog, Pineapple and more! A lot of these flavours are only available for one day but may make a comeback. I tried the limited time Thai Milk Tea and the Tieguanyin soft serve, both of which are delicious. I think the Thai Milk Tea was the most delicious soft serve I ever had! I will say that it was a little sweet towards the end, but it is the most perfect form of Thai Milk Tea as a soft serve. The Tieguanyin soft serve is great alternative if you prefer the tea flavour over the sweetness. I've always been helped by Chris every time I'm there and I've never seen anyone else working. He is very friendly and always looking for ways to improve. When we had the Charcoal ice cream, he gave my friend and two cups of warm water without us even asking (because that stuff gets all over your mouth)! When I had the Thai Milk Tea, he asked if it needed any tweaking, whether or not it was too sweet. The only downside is their operating hours. I wish they were open during lunch hours but they don't open until 4pm. read more

I"ve come here a few times already and I have tried a few of their delicious cones! it's tucked inside the plaza but it's not that difficult to find. Not a lot of sitting room either - just a few chairs for those who choose to loiter, or you can stand outside the shop in the corrider in the inner area of the "mall" and just hang around there to eat. They have various flavours and they do change them up - however, it's hard to know what's available when one just shows up at the store. So far I have tried the lemon tea, horlick and most recently the white rabbit candy. The ice cream was spectacular for the lemon tea and horlick. Lemon tea taste exactly like the drink itself and i was quite impressed! the horlick was amazing - i just love the amt of malt and i can really taste the flavour... def one of my favourites. The white rabbit candy - it wasn't as creamy as i would've liked so in some sense it wasn't exactly the same as the candy itself - which i do get is hard to achieve. The taste is there but i dont' know if it's just that particular batch but it could be stronger - some of my other friends mentioned when they had it the taste was definitely there so could just be that night. They also ran out of all other flavours except the white rabbit candy... so perhaps that particular batch wasnt exactly the greatest. But still, if you're ever wanting to try some asian-inspired soft serve ice cream and you haven't checked out this place yet, I would highly suggest you go - i can't wait to go back to try the vitasoy in the summer time! read more

Love their Horlicks soft serve as it's the only place that makes it and it tastes just like the drink. They have soft serve flavours that are very Hong Kong style and I have tried others like Vitasoy, Matcha and White Rabbit but Horlicks is hands down my favourite! They are also available on Ubereats but they have to freeze it extra cold for delivery which takes away from the smooth texture so I recommend ordering in store. read more

Have the Ovaltine x Lindor ice cream, and let me tell you, I have never ever had an ice cream that tasted just like the name yet not too too sweet at all! Very smooth ice cream, extremely rich Ovaltine in each bite, but where's the Lindor part? I have no idea... The waffle cone... it tasted a little off... My boyfriend and I both thought it tasted kind of fake (is that even possible)?? But it just didn't taste like a waffle to us. read more

When the employee came out with our order, he told us to wait at least 10 minutes before eating (???). The "soft serve" was freezer burnt and served in a cup which could be held upside down without it budging in the slightest. As you can imagine, as the cone defrosted it became soggy and stuck to the paper cone holder. It's clear that they pre-made their soft serve and froze it for ease. This place serves two things: bubble tea and soft serve. If you're going to have a menu with limited options, you're going to want to do it right and do it extremely well. Matcha Tea & Dessert failed horribly in doing so - a disappointment as I've seen so many photos on social media raving about this place. read more

*rubs hands* HERE WE GO. 3rd update. You'll always see at least one of Chris/Max (the owners), at the shop making fresh tapioca batches daily. Since my last review they've worked out many kinks in the shop with a few more changes/additions coming in the future according to Chris. I covered the quality of their soft serve in a prev review so I don't feel that I have to review it again. They've added a second machine which has red bean & black sesame alongside the staple matcha & charcoal. Anyways, yummy soft serve as always (no more matcha powder clumps since the incompetent trainee was fired) and I needn't say more about it. I'm not a big fan of cheese foam so I will let someone else review those. I am, however, a big fan of milk tea. The ogasa milk tea and roasted milk tea might be some of the best milk tea I've tasted. Very unique flavor profile. They make your tea with a default sugar lvl but u can customize it to ur liking just like the 6 other bbt places at commerce gate. My friend and I got to try some rose milk tea on our most recent visit (not available to customers at the moment... I believe they are experimenting with it). It had a very strong floral taste and was more perfumey than the ogasa which was interesting. They are also using one of the most expensive roasted blends on the market. Since my last review, I've been able to try almost all the tapioca flavors. Here are my personal recommendations/rankings. 1) Sesame: BAZINGA! Hands down, best all-round (pairs well in most, if not all, of their drinks) flavor imo. I could chew on these for days. Ideally enjoyed with one of their milk teas. I wish they would make a batch of these everyday. 2) Sakura: fruity taste and goes well with milk or non-milk tea but paired best with a non-milk tea like golden melon, momo oolong or white peach oolong. 3) Mango: same as the sakura. Sometimes hit or miss with the flavor. The initial batch I first tried didn't have enough mango flavor. But each successive time it's been good. Best paired with non-milk tea. White peach oolong with mango taps is a go-to combo for moi. 4) Matcha: these were sometimes quite bitter, sometimes perfect. But when it was just right it paired nicely with non-milk tea. Particularly one of their matcha drinks, osmanthus or gold phoenix tea. 5) Butterfly Pea Flower: kinda tasted like a mix between blueberry and raspberry flavor. Extremely fruity taste. Again, paired best with non-milk tea. 6) Taro: these were above avg. Tbh, they tasted similar to the regular unflavored pearls you get at chatime. There's a hint of taro taste to differentiate from a regular pearl. Not a bad thing I guess cuz some ppl prefer less flavor in their tapioca. Paired best with one of their milk teas. 7) Crystal: plain jello taste. I thought it would taste like lychee but nah haha. Looks cool while sitting in your non-milk tea though. Reminds me of kanting jelly but I like the texture of kanting jelly more NOTE*: The grass jelly in their roasted milk tea is also made using proper brown sugar (the way it's made in taiwan) as opposed to regular white sugar which a lot of bbt places use. *ahem chatime im looking at u* STILL WANT TO TRY: sweet potato and purple yam tapioca. I'm hesitant to try strawberry tapioca cuz I think it might be too sweet. I know they used to serve tea mousse, but I'm not sure if they serve it anymore since the menu revamp. Make sure you call in or msg them on IG or FB to see what tapioca flavor they're making on a given day. Chris also informed me that he will likely be upgrading to a better cutting and rounding machine soon. Price-wise, I do believe they are matched fairly against the surrounding competitors (I call commerce gate, bbt haven lol) and while I appreciate that The Alley literally right next door makes great bbt and handcrafted tapioca as well, these guys also make quality bbt and their drinks are severely underrated imo. Come order and you be the judge! read more

I'm super late but I finally made it here after seeing hundreds of pictures of their ice cream flooding my feed. I got their ovaltine x malt and I loveee how dense and hard the soft serve was making it harder to melt. I tasted the ovaltine in my first bite and it was SOOO good but by the time I reached the middle all I tasted was malt..which was ok but I'm not a huge fan of chocolate. The waffle cone I wasn't a fan of, I thought it was a tad too sweet for my liking. With that being said I can't wait to go back and try out their other flavours! read more

Was lucky enough to win a IG giveaway that gave me the opportunity to get a ovaltine x lindt chocolate soft serve for free :) That being said, the soft serve was nice and smooth, and the flavours popped out and paired well altogether. I tasted the richness flavours of the lindt more but it wasnt overly sweet either so that was a bonus. The waffle cone was good, and the overall size of the soft serve was pretty generous. I would love to come back and try the other flavours. They have so many that it's so hard to choose which one! That being said, I probably wont go and try the gold ice cream. Seems a little too extra in my opinion and for the price it really isnt worth it. Some of my friends did mention that the other flavours (i.e. the lemon tea vita drink) was really subtle in flavour, and to me it does seem like a weird combination, but i do like their creativity! read more

Finally tried this place and it totally lived up to my expectations. I ordered the White Rabbit Ice cream on the black charcoal cone to share with my son and my mother in-Law ordered the black sesame ice cream. The owner was delighted to share some info about the ice cream they serve since we told him it is our first time. He offered us a sampling of the matcha, horlick and extra black sesame ice cream. That was really nice of him. He also offer my MIL some water since she was coughing a bit. Overall, the ice cream flavors we tried today were delicious. The white rabbit ice cream was not so powerful but you can taste the original flavor in it. As for the black sesame ice cream, it was very authentic and not so sweet which is perfect. Not like the grocery store black sesame ice cream where it taste to sweet and sugary. The place is tiny. It is a small shop with only chairs to sit on while you wait for your order. But not a place you would stay and hang around. My son enjoyed the little display of the white rabbit bags and stuff animal plush sitting on the chair. The background was Instagram worthy so I took a bunch of cute photos of him enjoying his soft serve. Overall I would come back again just to try out a full soft serve of the Horlick ice cream. These flavors really bring back some childhood memories. NOTE TO OWNER: if you are ever reading this, another cool childhood favorite which I think would do great as a soft serve is Rubina flavored ice cream or the Lychee flavor ice cream. read more

We ordered the Horlick and Milo flavoured ice cream on a charcoal cone. Horlick ice cream was really good as the Horlick flavour was strong. Milo was also good but the flavour wasn't as strong. The 4 ice cream flavours of the week are Milo, Horlick, Ovaltine, and White Rabbit Candy. They also sell daifuku ice cream which comes in a larger range of flavours. The prices for the ice creams were quite expensive. It came to almost $15 for two regular ice creams on a cone. Overall, the ice cream tasted good but will only come once in a while as the price is steep. read more

This shop is one of my favorite to visit whenever I'm around Commerce Gate and Highway 7. Although you see the sign, you actually have to go inside the building to find the shop. Whenever we go, our cashier tells us what flavors they have at the moment . One of their signature things is their gold/silver that wraps around the ice cream which would make the ice cream quite aesthetically pleasing. My to go to is their Horlick as it has a very strong flavor behind each bite/lick LOL. Honestly, it tastes just like the drink which is amazing. They offer other unique flavors such as White Rabbit, Want-Want etc as well. At times they have limited flavors such as Milo, and Vitasoy (which I have yet to try). My goal: to try them all! read more

Matcha Tea & Dessert - Horlick Ice cream - Desserts Near Me - Markham, Ontario

I was very excited to find out that they were opening this location uptown at Commerce Gate. I literally work across the street - so this was perfect! It is located beside The Alley bubble tea place... tucked in a unit inside the plaza. It is still currently open from 4pm to 12am - been checking from time to time - I hope they will soon open during lunch hours because my coworkers are all dying to try it ^^ The first time I heard about Matcha Tea & Dessert was at the Sweetery Toronto one year ago. I remember instantly falling in love with their version of Matcha soft serve - the bitter/sweetness was just right - and the Hokkaido Chiffon Cake they offered at that time was also very tasty. I don't think they have the chiffon cake at this location (yet...?) but they do have a nice red bean flavour soft serve, as well as, hot and cold beverages, and delicious homemade mochis! I think they might also be offering Teppan (rolled) ice cream as well. I see the equipment and utensils but I can't confirm since I always walk by it when they are closed lol. I actually enjoy the red bean soft serve very much - I personally love red bean and it was a nice complementary flavour to the matcha when you get the twist :) The mini one is on a sugar cone... tbh, it was a good size for me already. But if you are doing it for IG, get the waffle cone which is their regular size. I haven't tried their mochis yet but my friend who bought them said they were very good. I will be back to try more items! Keep up the great work :D read more

Disclaimer: This review is not sponsored in any form. No free item in exchange for my review (During their Grand Opening, free mini cone was given out in exchange for a post or review on Social Media) I love Matcha and was excited that this new Matcha Tea & Dessert opens at Commerce Gate. On a Wednesday afternoon, this place was not busy. I was debating what to order, the friendly staff suggest the twist: Matcha and Red Bean. I wanted to get the mini size, but since I want that in a cup, he said only in regular size ($6). The soft serve looks good for the photo. I do like the texture: heavy and denser compares to others and it took awhile to melt. What it is lacking though is taste. I know most Asian dessert of trying to make it not too sweet but the flavour profile was just off! Maybe Red Bean and Matcha does not work together? There was this smokey after taste of me just having a cigarette! The staff was nice enough to ask me how was it. I did tell him the truth and he mentioned that they uses Taiwanese Black Sugar as sweetener. This might be the problem since this type of sugar though is a healthier option but has a more smokey-malt taste to it. And the different in texture is probably from the molasses of the sugar. Hopefully, Matcha Tea & Dessert would work on a better tasting profile as personally I don't think that having a smokey after taste is the way to go for soft serve! read more

We heard that this place was the only place in Toronto that finally had White Rabbit flavoured bubble tea so we had to be the first to try it! Well unfortunately the White Rabbit flavour wasn't "ready" yet. The man working there said to come back in 45 minutes. They do have their ice cream all day so I settled for that instead. The menu here is pretty limited. They mostly feature soft serve of classic flavours like Milo, Ovaltine and White Rabbit. I did see from the signage outside that they now offer gold leaf decorated ice cream. My friend and I really just wanted White Rabbit so we got a cup of that soft serve. It was a pretty generous helping of it. It was perfect for sharing. The flavour is quite subtle but it's definitely there. I'id be happy to come back and have another helping of it! read more

Matcha Markham . A small dessert shop located in commerce gate in Richmond Hill. They recently added a selection of bubble teas in their menu! . White Rabbit Bubble Tea (R: $6.00) . Taste: 5/5 Matcha Markham has been very popular in recent years for their white rabbit candy flavoured ice cream. They have just released a bubble tea version of it. @Mattheweats and I were able to try it out and I must say, I am very impressed! As a lover of white rabbit candy, I can truly say that the flavour is present in the drink and compliments the brown sugar and boba very well. It was not too sweet either and I was not left feeling full or heavy. I will definitely be back to try their other bubble teas and ice creams! ~ read more

I tired the white rabbit ice cream and the Horlicks ice cream. The Horlick one was a strong flavor and I could have done with less of it.

Maybe would come back again for the other flavours, but not anytime soon.. Also waaaaaay too overhyped. read more

After looking at instagram foodie accounts and looking at yelp I made the decision that I MUST try Matcha Tea and Dessert while we were in the area and it DIDN'T DISAPPOINT! Food: We tried the horlick, milo, and white rabbit soft swerve. For the day we decided to go with milo and it was pretty neat that they served it in a charcoal cone. I love that it also had a small shovel and a hard not delicious doraemon character. Price: The soft swerve with gold paper was $14 which is pretty expensive for a ice cream cone. A regular cone would be $6.5. Service: The staff was really awesome considering how indecisive my boyfriend and I were in choosing a soft swerve flavor. They even let us sample all 3 of the flavors of the day to help us make out decision. Overall: I can't wait to come back and have more delicious flavored soft swerves that you typically wouldn't find anywhere else. I wouldn't get the gold (we only got it for the gram haha), but I wouldn't mind trying their other ice cream flavors. read more

Matcha Tea & Dessert - Milo soft swerve with gold paper - Desserts Near Me - Markham, Ontario

This place is located in the busy commerce valley gate plaza but in like the hallway of the complex - almost like a hole in the wall. Could be easily missed except you know you're in the right place cause there's a huge line up! So they offer really cool flavours such as Ovaltine, Milo, Horlicks, and white rabbit. The regular ice cream cones are about $7 each and come in a charcoal cone. If you want the fancy gold foil they charge up to $16.88 +tax! Pretty pricy for just an instagram shot. The taste of the ice cream let me down. I tried every flavour. Most of them tasted like regular chocolate ice cream, to water chocolate milk, to 2% chocolate milk. The white rabbit flavour disappointed ... the first second it tasted like the candy but then it transitions to an extremely sweet sugary watery taste. All the ice cream flavours lacked creaminess and tasted more like frozen yogurt. read more

I was surprised that they have unique flavours of ice cream. White rabbit candy flavour is the current new one that they are pushing out. They also have ovatine, milo and other unique asian flavours of ice cream. You can also order a silver or gold foil to go with your ice cream. The place is small and it is good that they have a sign outside to lead you in. There are also some IG props to take fantastic pics. Good to try if you are craving for a different flavour when you are in Richmond Hill. read more

White rabbit ice cream blew up on my Facebook newsfeed so I knew I had to try it. Excited to give this place a shot and ended up being disappointed. I would not advise to get the white rabbit flavor, it taste just like regular ice cream... if anything the Horlick is definitely under rated! The Horlick and ovaltine soft serve taste exactly like what they advertise the flavors to be except for their famous "white rabbit". I got the gold foil for the first visit for photo reasons but other than that I wouldn't purchase the gold foil on top of my ice cream again. Staff are friendly and this place does get busy Cash only read more

Really wanted to try the white rabbit bbt and white rabbit soft serve but both were a huge disappointment. I am not sure if I was thinking too hard for that white rabbit taste but the flavour was so faint that I felt like I was just imagining it was there... the softserve if I had not known it was white rabbit flavour, tasted like a watered down vanilla cone... it wasn't even that smooth/creamy (in comparison to McDonalds soft serve, McDonald's is smoother and creamier)! The white rabbit bbt just tasted like brown sugar with fresh milk... $14 for the both of them.. wow! read more

The first photo is the popular drink known from this place which is the White Rabbit Bubble Tea. It actually really tastes like the White Rabbit candy, but has a sweeter taste than the candy. Regardless, it tasted really good because the flavour was strong. Tapioca also has very good texture, chewy and the right amount of soft! They also serve White Rabbit soft serve if you prefer ice cream more than boba :) The second photo is the Horlicks (malted chocolate) Soft Serve with the waffle cone. (I actually wanted to try their Milo Ice cream, but unfortunately, they were out of stock). The ice cream itself was not as sweet as I thought, but it complemented really well with the waffle cone! It was pretty good!! Overall, good experience! The staff were also very kind! Also important to know that THEY ONLY ACCEPT CASH!!! Place is located in a plaza nn has a variety of food places and boba places!! :) both items are also nut-free if you're allergic to nuts :p read more

If you're into accurate-tasting ice cream of specific interesting flavours, this is the place to go. They change their flavours every few weeks, so you never really know what the next flavours will be. I've tried their Korean ube, London Fog, charcoal, Vitasoy, Lemon iced tea, Horlick, and White Rabbit soft serve ice creams. All the featured flavours were pretty accurate and true to the original. The only thing is that I find their ice cream very overpriced. Especially if you get your ice cream covered in a silver sheet or a gold sheet... The sheets don't taste like anything, but cost an arm and a leg, if you get them for aesthetic reasons (picture taking). I'd recommend just eating the ice cream on its own, without all the fancy silver or gold. I wouldn't call this place a 'favourite dessert place', but I'd come back to try any interesting ice cream flavours that pop up. read more

Had a chance to try their soft serve and their new white rabbit bubble tea. This place is not in plain site but near the Alley. Cash only business. Some thoughts about their soft serve - I got to try the white rabbit, horlicks and matcha. For $7, my cones can have different serving amounts. It's not consistent for that price. The white rabbit soft serve met its purpose, but it's not strongly flavoured as expected. The horlicks was good but it was confusing considering it was charcoal horlicks. The white rabbit bubble tea was underwhelming. After all, they are the first location to offer this flavour. Also, it was one of the last two cups of the night when I went. read more
