Great local spot when you're craving a sweet treat. We had the snow ice and it was melt in your mouth good. The funnel cake was cooked well, but be sure to get it with toppings (e.g. Oreos) if you want it sweet enough to satisfy a craving. read more

Went on a Saturday afternoon to get ice cream & funnel cakes. We ended up getting the sno- ice cream mix which was very good. The mix was a vanilla & chocolate treat, very yummy. It was on the extra sweet side & was a good size. Great to be shared by two people. Funnel cake was fresh & tasted better than the ones you get at the fair. We also had a serving of a soft vanilla ice cream that was also very good. Very impressed with the cleanliness & variety sold at quintessential sweets. Look forward to going again. read more

Hands down the best dessert stop in Memphis area! You will not be disappointed if you go.

Delicious and joyful experience. My son and I enjoyed a snow cone while my husband tried an adult version. We will definitely be back.

Ever got a extreme sweet tooth and want to support black business? Look no further than here. Any Carnival craving you can think of they have made fresh daily. Plus the only place in memphis that has better (debatably) ice cream is Maggies 901. read more

Quintessential Sweets is very appropriately named. They offer a huge variety of desserts, from candied apples, to chocolate and candy covered oreos, they even offer gourmet candy by the pound. What brings us back time and time again is their flavored snow! They offer a wide variety of flavors and are responsibly priced. It can be served with or without ice cream. A fun spot to visit with the whole family on a hot summer day! read more

Quintessential Sweets - Mini cherry snow, mini tiger's blood, and the Unicorn - Desserts Near Me - Bartlett, Tennessee

They have a great concept here, but there needs to be quality assurance measures in place. *Cleanliness if important in a food establishment. No food should have crumbs from the others foods especially when they are no wear near each other in the display case. *Bringing a tub of ice cream from the back to sample in unacceptable. Get creative and think of away to display what you offer. *Customer facing employees' uniforms should never be in disarray. No holes in the shirts, never should it have multiple stains. *When I look at the raspberry snow ice, I should not see traces of other favors of ice from using the same spoon. Do like the other ice cream shops and get multiple scoopers or a hot water tray to rinse in between flavors. *Why are there empty Frost Cupcake Shop boxes in the establishment. Made me wish I were at Frost instead. Tune these areas and you will be a viable business for a long time. read more

You have got to try the Cotton Candy Candied Apples! So tasty with the white chocolate and caramel! I eat them so fast before I remember to take a pic! read more

Poorest customer service I've ever received from a "sweet" business. The base and tone in the "owner's " voice when providing service was beyond rude and made me feel like I was bothering him. It changed my entire positive mood of wanting to try their treats as well as future catering opportunities being a party planner. There wasn't a crowd and I didn't provoke such behavior so I don't know what was wrong with the guy. In an economy like this it really pays just to have common respect and courtesy for people, especially customers. I'm an avid tipper also so I understand why the tip jar was empty I guess. read more

I had my first visit today for flavored snow. I saw a menu of funnel cakes, Carmel apples, homemade ice cream and other succulent desert choices. This place was busy but the two employees worked hard and fast to get people served. I would have given 5 stars but I had a coupon to buy one snow get one free but was only given 7% off. I didn't realize it until it was too late. I wasn't going back over $2.00! Good food just watch your total if you use a coupon. read more

While on vacation went here twice. The first time we got snow cones they were pretty good. The second time I got two funnel cakes. Just speechless. Cookies and cream for one and turtle for the other one. Since there are no fairs going on right now, this hit the spot. Fluffy and delicious. My daughter got the snow cone with ice cream. She said it was so much better than the first go around, but very filling. read more

Came in on a slow Sunday for something to satisfy my sweet tooth I had all weekend. There isn't any options in the Cordova area to fill that desire so I drove to Bartlett to see what was good with Q Sweets. It was nice and bright making it easy to spot from the street. I got a speciality funnel cake and a white chocolate caramel apple (for later). It's hard to mess up funnel cake (but some places manage to do the impossible) but there's was good! Not too hard, not too soft. There were a few candy options sold by the pound. Not the most extensive selection but enough. The staff was nice. Next time I'll try the ice cream. read more

Not good. Ordered from DoorDash. Food smelled like grease although nothing I ordered was cooked. My cheesecake was freezer burned and store bought. My ice cream even tasted like old grease. Will never order again. read more

Me and my husband has always enjoyed to find small hidden gems in the mid-delta region. And what makes it much better is that it's black owned. When you first walk I you are greeted by a showcase of chocolate covered apples. As you walk around the counter, you can see more chocolate covered treats. Then you're greeted with smiles from the employees ready and eagerly waiting to serve you. Then your eye catches all these wonderful colors of Italian ice. So many options! It so hard to choose just one flavor, so I suggest to get an Italian ice with multiple flavors. Then you see this huge fryer that is there to perfectly cook your funnel cake and deep fried Oreos. Oh, did I forget to mention, HOMEMADE ICE CREAM. They say their most popular is the banana pudding. I bet you it is. You can add multiple toppings and you can even buy in bulk candy. It pretty much have something for everyone's craving for something sweet. I highly recommend this place and just set back and enjoy you free WiFi and sweets. read more

We had Quintessential Sweets Shaved Ice delivered to my mom for her 63rd Birthday. Chris and team were incredible and made the process very easy. We got funnel cake with caramel, chocolate covered oreos, a turtle shot, and chocolate covered strawberries. They even wrote Happy Birthday Mom on all of the packaging. Quintessential Sweets was great start to finish and we will be ordering from them sometime soon. read more

Amazing desserts! Helpful staff. Their banana pudding ice cream tastes like real banana pudding!!

OMG. Bring your wet tooth, will need it. Decedents indulged and taken to the extreme.

This place was okay. I was craving something sweet so we drove about 15 minutes to come here since I had it bookmarked. They have an interesting way to keep the ice which was pretty cool. I ended up getting the orange creamsicle flavor with soft serve. The flavor was okay, it was pretty muted but also tasted very artificial. The soft serve was pretty good though. Overall, I think it was just okay. read more

They have the best sweets and desserts. I don't have to wait until the fair gets here to enjoy a funnel cake. Their fried Oreos are delicious. Everyone is so nice and helpful. read more

I wish I would've taken a picture of the funnel cake that I bought! I couldn't wait to dig in! It was made as I ordered it and had plenty of powdered sugar (enough for 2 funnel cakes to be honest). We got it to go. Great place for a sweet tooth. read more

So I've been a loooong Jerry's fan since the beginning of time, so when I heard there was another snow cone/ice cream place in town, I had to check it out. Don't get me wrong, Jerry's will always have my heart, but I'm starting to think that it needs to move over a bit bc this place is amazing! The owner (I'm assuming he's the owner) was so kind and practically made us sample everything before placing our order to make sure we would love what we get! I got the strawberry and wedding cake mix and it was so amazing! It isn't as sweet as Jerry's either, so perfect for those who love ice cream but don't feel like eating straight up sugar. read more

On a recent beautiful Sunday afternoon, I was in the mood to try a 'special' frozen treat after walking in the park with hubby & puppy. I actually wanted to try Jerry 's for the 1st time, but hubby wasn't interested in driving from where we were. (Maybe next time!) I was very glad we tried Quintessential Treats! I ordered the caramel apple sno ice & added ice cream. It was very sweet for my taste, but hubby enjoyed it. (The small was plenty for us to share.) The people behind me were super impressed when they saw what I had..."Wow! What's that?" Service was friendly and professional. I'll be back! read more

Quintessential Sweets - Sorry for the bad photography; moving vehicle. Caramel apple sno ice with ice cream - Desserts Near Me - Bartlett, Tennessee

I heard that Bartlett now has a dessert stand too! Just came to this place today right after I got off work at noon. Perfect place to stop by if you're craving something sweet and to cool you off. I was a bit overwhelmed by the size of the flavored snow ice they gave me when I ordered a large with ice cream added, but managed to finish it all and was very satisfied. If snow ice isn't something you're craving for at the moment, then you can choose from other various dessert items on the menu where you can customize to add different toppings. Even though I haven't tried the other items yet, I highly recommend ordering their snow ice with ice cream! read more
