The restaurant was busy when we stopped by but everyone in the space made you feel so welcome with smiles and suggestions.

I try to find homemade ice cream wherever I travel. After coming to Baton Rouge for the past 2…read moreyears to visit my fiancé, I decided we had to venture out of BR to find a non-chain ice cream shop. Maddie's fit the bill with its homemade ice cream and family-run ambiance. It's in an unassuming shopping center off the main toad in Brusly, LA (about a 15 min drive from BR, just over the MISSISSIPPI river), but it's an oasis in an otherwise ice cream desert. The space is super cute and inviting with paintings of various ice cream cones on the walls by young artists (they do kids birthday parties) and a chalkboard menu. They also have plenty of seating and a "Eat More Ice Cream" sign that's perfect for the 'gram. The ice cream itself is fantastic and really creamy and rich. I got coffee and cookies and cream and my partner got blueberry cheesecake and s'mores. Very reasonably priced given the generous scoops! They also have brownies, cookies, and their signature creations/sundaes. Worth the drive to this small town to get world class ice cream! We'll be back!

You don't always see that. The tables and chairs are metal. The girl behind the counter is very sweet, but she doesn't know too much about the product that she sells. She knows that the ice cream is from Alabama and that it is not locally sourced. Prices here are more than reasonable, $5 for a 3-scoop sampler. She was very helpful, providing us samples and giving us flavor recommendations. It's a real cute lil spot. Another thing, it was super clean. Yay!!

Every visit to Sweet Society fills me with such joy! The inside is aesthetically pleasing (for all…read moreyou photo takers) and extremly clean. The staff are very friendly and will help you navigate through the menu if you need any help! The front of the store is also stocked with fun and yummy asian snacks and plushies haha so make sure to bring your wallet when you come!! So enough about the inside and staff, the food is PHENOMENAL! I have such a sweet tooth it's not even funny. My fav taiyaki pocket filling are the chocolate and the custard ones and everytime I visit, they're cooked the same, so I can go in expecting to bite into a crispy outside layer and a warm, fluffy layer inside. The ube ice cream is def one of my favs there as well. It's not overly sweet (even my friend who isn't a fan of sweets loved it!) and has such a smooth texture. The fruit lemonade is both pretty to look at and very refreshing to drink. I love drinking this while studying!! If you're lactose intolerant, don't worry, Sweet Society has you covered too! They have lactose free ice cream and bingsu! I have yet to try the bingsu, so it's def something that I will be trying during my next visit. Also, if you're a Kpop stan, this is the place for you. They play Kpop all day (I love ittt) and even have cute little fan events!

And fish-shaped taiyaki or bunggeobang pastries that feature custard or red bean filling--warm and sweet with a crispy exterior. The ube cookies were the only items that didn't blow my mind as the ube flavor was lost amongst the food coloring and white chocolate chips. The ube ice cream however was solid, with a mild and lightly sweet earthy flavor similar to taro or matcha. 8/10 recommend especially if you've never had bingsu or ube. My favorite was definitely the fish-shaped pastries, a very impressive replication of the Asian street snacks sold in the wintertime.

From the flavor of the month, the awesome house made ice cream flavors, and super cute dog treats, this bakery goes above and beyond tradition or basic. The lemon raspberry cupcake, red velvet, chocolate, and classic vanilla with pineapple no frosting were delicious. They also make amazing iced coffee and the cheesecake ice cream plus the biscotti I tried were 10/10. I hate that it's been months since my return but I plan to next month for my birthday. the CEO and all staff are very sweet and friendly. Service was very swift and organized. This is a cute early morning coffee and treats stop, cute date outing, great for custom birthday cakes, wedding cakes, and more!

Dessert might go to the stomach for most people.. but yeah, this one hit the heart for me! Smallcakes Cupcakery & Creamery got all the sweet stuff covered if you're craving cookies, cupcakes, or cake. The salted caramel cookie was BOMB; soft, sweet, with that little salty kick. If you like it really sweet, go for the lemon drop or orange creamsicle cupcakes. But the one that got me? The Pecan Pie cream cheese. That one definitely hit the spot! The Cake was soft, fluffy, and not dry at all. Solid spot if you're in BR and need a dessert run. I'd definitely be back. #tonylameats

So many tasty looking desserts in the window but we went with the cookies and cream ice cream & Venezuelan cheese sticks to eat inside. Unfortunately the empanadas were sold out (was hoping to try some of those for a small lunch). There were no other hot foods but the cheese sticks were very tasty! The ice cream was delicious as well. Took a churro cheesecake & Dubai chocolate cheesecake home to try later with my family but they had plenty of other options--flan, coconut flan, chocolate flan, variety of cheesecakes & tres leches (including several for Father's Day). There is also a small market attached with cold drinks, frozen items & a variety of shelf items. Will be back to try some coffee drinks & other desserts. And hopefully the empanadas!

Alexa offered us samples of each of their tres leches, and I did not know that the flavor would be a little different based on the country of origin. My daughter got a brownie, and I settled on a cheesecake. My cheese cake was creamy and rich. I went with the Nutella one that had Ferraro Rocher's on top for sentimental reasons.
