    Cookies and Cream Funnel Cake
    Megan W.

    I love the dessert variety here. Their funnel cake & strawberry shortcake caramel apple are my faves!! The BEST things going. I love being able to get my funnel cake fix without having to go to the fair. They have great, quick service and a cute quaint dessert shop. This is definitely the perfect place for a good dessert run!

    Oreo cheesecake
    A E.

    The inside is sooo sweetly scented from funnel cakes, chocolate covered strawberries and sugary treats. There's a little bit of this & that for all ages! Oreo cheesecake was a bit dry. The crust was pretty good but, the Oreo on top was delightful. Service: average, pricing average Ambiance: casual, family friendly

    Pecan claw

    I know the cheesecake is probably from the cheesecake man in town. It's so good. I got the strawberry crumble and another person in our party got the turtle funnel cake. He ate almost the whole thing. I also got a pecan claw in chocolate and it was very good. I saw many flavors of liquor flavorings of snow. Just have your id and of age.

    Deep Fried Oreos

    This place is every kid's dream! They have every imaginable sweet treat, from funnel cakes to candy apples to snickers coated in extra chocolate. Their speciality is "snow," which is like a super soft snow cone. There are also options for "adult snow," including flavors like strawberry Hennessy and Crown Royal peach. We got a funnel cake and the fried Oreos, which were made fresh to order. I recommend the strawberry crumble funnel cake because the fresh strawberries really set it off! This place is cute and can satisfy any sweet tooth.

    The store clean the display of gourmet candy apples were eye catching. There are different sweet treats that you can indulge in, as well the many selections of ice creams and Italian ices.

    The folks and service here were great! The serving size was solid, and the ice cream was delicious. The range of sweets offered here is also impressive. Definitely stop by if you're needing a sweet treat!

    This place has really good Italian ice and ice cream. The price point is really good too. They have so many sweets, my eyes are bigger than my stomach. They have a wide range of desserts for just about everyone. There is always people in lone or outside enjoying themselves. This is a nice stop from time to time to enjoy myself.

    Phenomenal service and great tasting, FRESH food. The shop was really cute too. They have so much to offer. From freshly made ice cream, to all the fried confections, to dipped apples and strawberries. It's all amazing. The two ladies there tonight were super sweet and cared about each order. It was a busy one tonight! Prices were on point if not lower than I expected. Keep it up!!

    I love the concept of this establishment! The food was terrific. They have a number of dessert options to choose from so you really can't go wrong. I definitely enjoyed my experience. And everything was fresh. I would definitely go back.

    Just thought we would check this place out and I must say I am so happy we did.We we're greeted friendly which is rare these days.My husband created his own and he got the Birthday Cheesecake which looked delicious. I couldn't resist The Strawberry Funnel Cake Yummy! It was so delicious I sang "Get in my Belly"!! I know what you're thinking...who sings to their food? Ahhhh..this girl I can't wait to return or try their other location near downtown Memphis. Great atmosphere and the location is also good because I could shop and walk off some of the Funnel Cake

    My Special Funnel Cake!
    Ayesha J.

    My husband loves this place for their funnel cakes! We can never seem to make it here in the light of day. Whenever we go it's like 15-30 minutes near closing time and guess what!?!? Each time we're met with smiling faces and amazing service....if you live in this current world of customer service you know that's nothing short of AMAZING. Outside of excellent service they're killing the funnel cake scene HANDS DOWN! Their funnel cake is ALWAYS light, fluffy and hot with the perfect balance if crispness. I usually don't get a funnel cake the size of them are so huge...I usually just share some of the hubs (I'm sure he doesn't like it, oh well, lol.) Last night tho I needed my own! And boy did I get one! I'm so extra when I have dessert cravings. So, I got the turtle funnel cake and add fresh cut strawberries, waffle pieces and soft serve ice cream! Y'all when I say it was EVERYTHING!!! I MEAN IT! First of all the ladies of Q-Sweets kindly adhered to all my additional topping request with a smile and presented me with the most beautifully appealing funnel cake that met all of my demands exceptionally...even with ice cream on top my funnel cake was still soft, hot and crispy...HOW SWAY!?!? Q-SWEETS my husband and I are LIFERS....Thank you so much!!

    I got a flavored snow with ice cream. I was questioning the ice cream added but it looked cool when I saw other people order it. The workers were nice and helpful explaining menu items. A great place to take kids for a treat. I'd definitely go again.

    Yes please open. Chocolate ice cream and tamales needed. I miss the snow ice. I miss seeing happy…read morecustomers wait for ready to order food and goodies.

    It's hard to classify the Sweden Kream. It would be wrong to call it a burger joint, because they…read morealso serve hot wings, tamales, breakfast, ice cream, shakes, and snow cones. The menu is taped to the window, and over the years, various items have been added to it on neon poster board. All of the lettering and art (including a giant mouth licking a chicken wing) are hand-painted. The place looks like it's been open since man first realized that snow cones and burgers are necessary to surviving summer in the South. Despite having a small dining room, it's not exactly a restaurant, either. You place your order at a window, then stand around and wait for the window to open and your initials to be called. It took about 20 minutes for the woman inside to yell my initials and stick a paper bag and cup through the window. I got the cheeseburger combo, which came with a juicy, greasy cheeseburger, some old-school crinkle cut fries and the best chocolate shake I've ever had. Its simplicity was amazing - there were no superfluous toppings, just plenty of creamy chocolate goodness. The Sweden Kream is located in North Memphis, on National. It looks a little sketchy, but it's not bad. It's open Monday - Saturday, from 10 a.m. - 7 p.m. When I was there around lunchtime, it was busy, but not overly crowded. As the summer goes on, though, I could see the lines for snow cones and milkshakes getting long. If you're not into waiting, you can call in your order.
