The ice cream was delicious and so were the toppings however it felt a bit much to pay almost $14 for two scoops of ice cream with one topping each. To break it down, I paid $6.70 for one scoop of ice cream with one topping. However, I don't really mind and the flavor of the ice cream definitely did not disappoint I will 100% be back for more!

Looking for some of the best homemade ice cream in Connecticut? The Big Dipper Ice Cream is a must…read morego for any ice cream lover. I've had their Graham Jam ice cream at the Micro Creamy of CT and is where I first learned about them. The Big Dipper's shop in Prospect was a 20 minute drive for us. The shop was very cute, classic ice cream shop vibes with a lot of indoor seating. There were freezers with ice cream pies, cakes, sandwiches, and pints or quarts of ice cream. They had a lot of hand scooped ice cream flavors from classic to original flavors. There were a few soft serve flavors available too. Since they make their own ice cream there were flavors that were unique to them. I got a scoop of Purple Cloud--a purple cotton candy base ice cream with a marshmallow swirl and Lemon Pie--lemon base ice cream with pie crust pieces. These flavors packed a punch and the Purple Cloud was fun for all ages. I don't remember the last time I had eaten cotton candy flavored ice cream, but the marshmallow swirl was a great touch to a nostalgic flavor. I got my ice cream in a waffle cone which was very delicious and had little bits of caramelization. My mom wanted a special soft serve flavor that the Big Dipper had advertised for the weekend. They called it Butterbeer, a twist of sweet cream and butterscotch. The girl helping us had no idea what we were talking about, but finally confirmed that they had the special soft serve flavors. We think my mom's cone was only the butterscotch flavor, but the soft serve was so soft it started melting immediately. No picture because it didn't look to pretty. Fortunately, the flavor was good and that's what really matters. I'd say stick to the hard ice cream flavors at Big Dipper. I look forward to visiting them again to see what they'll craft up because I'm always looking for flavors you can't get anywhere else.

Let's face it though, most of us don't want te be inside while we're enjoying our ice cream. We want to be outdoors enjoying the warmer weather. This Carvel has ALWAYS been an immaculately clean store each and every time I've been here. The staff are always very patient and kind when I've been trying to decide on which flavor to get. Their ice cream seems to be creamier here than a couple other Carvel stores i stop at. The parking is easy with plenty of spots. They have specialty soft serve flavors all the time. One of my favorite of all time was their vanilla bourbon which was incredible. They haven't had it for the past couple of years but I wish they'd revisit bringing that flavor back. And who doesn't love FUDGY THE WHALE. Many peoples all time favorite. Fudgy the Whale for any occasion. Keep up the fantastic work you always deliver on.

And with the nice weather, they also opened up a little outside seating area, which is partially covered and partially open to the fresh air. And for anyone who hasn't been here, they also sell all kinds of food next door. Today, I'm reviewing the ice cream next time I will try some of the food. Ice cream=5 stars!

Let me just say. The place is nice and open and clean. It's not too big inside so it's nice if you just wanna sit down on a lazy afternoon. If it's nice outside, they have plenty of tables to sit out and the scenery is very nice. I ordered the turkey and bacon wrap with fries and then I ordered a children's chicken strips it didn't take long to make, and I felt like I didn't wait long at all The presentation was very nice and let me just say it was delicious! I ordered two turkey wraps and to be honest I could have just split it with my daughter. But no argument here,,, i will dive into the other half later. Fries were mildly flavored (not spicy) and nice and crispy. It also came with pickles. The children's chicken strips came with three nice pieces of chicken and a bunch of fries and they added barbecue sauce on the side for a nice touch. Everything was hot and perfect when I brought it home, it was still nice and warm and the french fries were not soggy. They were still nice and crispy. The girl that helped me was very sweet and patient as i was choosing off the menu. And the owner chatted with me before I left. What a great place, dont drive by! Stop in for even a shake or ice-cream. I will be back to try a burger or steak and cheese grinder. Prices are very reasonable as well.
