Yelp should probably combine this listing with Corolla Cupcakes since they're in the same space, but whatever. I could do it, but I'm too lazy. Sweet Cups is the froyo portion of the store, and it was deeeee-licious. It's the kind you self-serve out of a machine and pay by the ounce, so you definitely get more than you thought you were filling. The salted caramel and mint cookie were both really good. They also have a topping station that's also self-serve (they're so sneaky), with whole pieces of candy for some of them! They also have healthier toppings like fruit. There are a couple of tables inside, and they have a really nice bathroom. read more

We went with 4 kids and they were excited to get ice cream, homemade at that, only to be disappointed in the service and ice cream selection. We walked in and were not greeted at all nor were the employees friendly, more annoyed to serve. The kids ordered ice cream and as expected, sprinkles only to have one of the employees bring out the sprinkles and pour them on the ice cream over the ice cream bins getting about 5 sprinkles on the cone. The ice cream did not taste home made. The layout was odd as well with toy claw machines on the opposite wall of the ice cream and limited seating inside. Will definitely not be back. read more

Ice cream had weird texture and taste, worker was rude when she made and mistake and she was asked to fix it.

First of all they got PISSED, when we asked for chocolate jimmys on our ice creams. We are from MA and didn't know if they got offended, but we used this word commonly in our town. They started giving us side eyes and started whispering after every order only from us. They refused to let us say our cultures words and they can deal with our words and not be pissed every time we go. WE WILL NOT SEE YOU AGAIN. Also it was pretty slow and the service and vibes sucked. See why people say south service is slow. read more

I thought it was weird to get a cupcake at the beach, but hey, I'll try anything! Please learn from me. This place is not worth your money! The cupcake was dry, and the frosting was whipped cream (not buttercream). Some people might like that, but I thought it was strange. The ice cream was gritty, icy, and artificial-tasting. The sign touts "Homemade Ice Cream" but I just don't believe it. Sorry Sweet Cups! read more

A basic shop with cupcakes, homemade ice cream and a yogurt/soft serve bar with toppings you can add t personalize it. Is large and cool inside with several tables as well as outdoor seating on the deck. The young gal working inside was very pleasant and friendly and offered my mom samples of their homemade ice cream. It's served like gelato by the size of little gelato cups and she got a chocolate peanut butter flavor that she absolutely loved. Raves about it. We looked in a few of the other ice cream shops in the center but this one had the best flavors and fresh handmade ice cream. The cupcakes were large and looked delicious with about 7 flavors. We didn't purchase any of the cupcakes though. I recommend on a hot day. read more

drove 1hr away for them to be CLOSED! website and google said open until 6:30pm.. it was, 4pm at arrival.

So delicious! The cupcakes weren't too sweet and were very moist and fluffy. The ice cream was so smooth and creamy. I would totally recommend it! read more

Vanilla Chocolate and strawberry frozen yogurt heaven! Quick clean friendly. Get a cup cake, dipped ice cream, or self serve frozen yogurt .65 cents an ounce for self serve fo yo. Beach town life yes read more

The frozen yogurt from Sweet Cups was just okay. Definitely not worth the amount of money you will spend for the yogurt and toppings. Most of their flavors were out of service leaving chocolate and vanilla and a few other random flavors. Their ice cream looked a little better than the frozen yogurt, but still expensive. The ambiance of the restaurant was a little off, we went around 9 pm, and they barely had any lights on inside the store at all, which just struck me as very odd. read more

Ice cream was delicious as well as the peanut butter cupcake. Prices are a little steep but their treats are so good.

Sweet Cups and Corolla Cup Cakes are together in the same building. You can get ice cream, frozen yogurt, or cupcakes. There are 8 different flavors of frozen yogurt, approx 12 different flavors of ice cream, and cupcake choices. Prices are on the high end but to be expected considering location. My biggest complaint was customer service! The two ladies working behind the counter were not inviting or helpful. If you ask for sample cup to try frozen yogurt they almost seem put out. We did not dare to ask for any ice cream samples. Upon the kids choosing their ice cream, we stood waiting for 5 minutes. I had to ask did you scoop the ice cream yet. Guess it was sitting behind the counter. I had to ask can I pay? Upon trying to paying the two ladies were talking to each other, seemed as if they were taking about us because we asked for our ice cream. I was never offered or given a receipt. Aside from customer service store front and interior is very clean. Seating is available inside and out. Trash can are located inside- no trash cans outside on the patio. read more

Cupcakes and scooped ice cream were bland...almost flavorless. The froyo was better, mainly because of the topping variety. Premium prices should bring more flavor. Won't come back. read more

Watched the staff allow someone who wasn't working to taste all the ice cream with the same spoon. I'm no food expert but I think this would violate food safety rules. read more

Have tried to visit last 2 days but they have been closed. According to their website, they should be open everyday from memorial to labor day. Bummer. read more

Frozen yogurt was ok. Seemed like the machines were not set cold enough. Kind of pricey. Credit cards only which was an inconvenience to us.

Perfect place for a sweet treat. Delicious gelato, fresh cupcakes, and all the frozen yogurt flavors and toppings you could ever want! read more

We had the froyo one afternoon and was not impressed. The flavor was so so and it was very pricey. The shop is clean and the decor was nice but we left thinking that we probably could have found a better place in Corolla. read more

From an Ice cream professional - dips were too small, inferior flavorings and over priced. I'm not an expert but that's what the one I'm with told me. I had the chocolate peanut and it was just ok. The pro has the strawberry and did not like it. read more

So, we went to this place because everywhere around closed at 9pm and Sweet cups website says they close at 9:30. We rushed our family dinner to get our family ice cream and got there at 9:15. The sign also says that they closed at 9:30. The doors were locked but there were two workers in there so we thought we'd go up to the door at least thinking they were just getting ready to shut down but when we knocked on the door the workers just stared at us nastily and started laughing amongst themselves. Look I work in the food industry, I understand wanting to go home, but it's not like we got there two minutes before close, and they could have at least opened the door and told us they were closing early. So rude and completely uncalled for. read more

We had the tiramisu and snickers home made ice cream in waffle cones. Both were excellent!!

Horrible all around. Went there 9/9/12, was, according to the owner "Heather" the second customer of the day, this being the off season and all. First 2 yogurts were all liquid, so we stupidly dumped them and moved on; we should have taken it as a sign to leave. My wife, son, and I then made up our sundaes, each using their Vanilla, paid, went outside, and took a bite: spoiled. At this point, I was getting pissed after paying more than $18 for spoiled yogurt. Went in and told Heather we're getting new ones using some of the remaining 5 flavors. "Thin mint" was so spoiled my wife nearly vomited. We demanded our money back, and this "Heather" (looked far to young to really be the owner, but whatever) said WE were being rude, and refused to return our money. We have tons of these weight-your-frozen-yogurt joints near us. All they have to do is: clean the machinery, supply fresh milk, and add in a powder mix. How hard is this? Luckily we used a credit card and were able to deny the charges. Even if the yogurt isn't spoiled during the summers, I hope this customer service story alone is enough to steer you away. read more

Nice little shop. They have cupcakes, gelato, and frozen yogurt. We tried the yogurt tonight. The flavors were ok, not outstanding, but not bad either. The gelato looked amazing and I would probably try that instead. Prices weren't bad and service was very good. read more

Love the strawberry gelato. It's really good and it taste so fresh. I recommend this place to everybody.

Gelato was icy, tried several flavors. Wouldn't go out of your way to come here, but it's convenient if you're already here. Service was very friendly. read more

Sweet Cups & Corolla Cupcakes - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Corolla, North Carolina

On vacation and wanted some ice cream. Went in and the lady working was horrible to us, never even cracked a smile or said hello. I asked for a cone to buy for froyo and she said "no, we don't do that." I said well I would like to buy froyo in a cup and then a cone separately and she said "nope." Literally "nope". Ok, well we won't be back- horrible customer service. read more

Cute shop conveniently located right across from the whale head club and the currituck lighthouse. Amazing fro-yo with an awesome selection of toppings, we love coming here to really treat ourselves. Just remember, calories don't count on vacation! read more

Got some ice cream and cupcakes. Ice cream was from the machine and could add whatever toppings I wanted. Cupcakes were pretty good but expensive. I don't know if they warrant the high cost but good if you want something sweet. read more

This place is fantastic!!! We stumbled upon this little frozen yogurt shop during a bike ride and had to go in for a taste. Not only were we greeted with the friendliest of people, but we were surprised by the selection of great flavored frozen yogurts and toppings. I wish we could take this place back home with us. It was that good. We will certainly be there everyday for the rest of our vacation! If you're in the area, you have to stop in for a taste!!! read more

We arrived three minutes before closing, but they still welcomed our family of six. Hats off to the staff for that! Gelato is delicious: lots of flavors to choose from. Kids had fun with the toppings on their frozen yogurt. Cake batter-flavor was a big hit. Very clean, bright space in a quaint area of shops. They also sell beautiful cupcakes, although we didn't try those. read more

Thought maybe this would be like Sweet Frog but was disappointed with the type of frozen yogurt being used. The taste of the yogurt was so-so and the consistency showed it was poor quality froyo with lots of air. A previous business at the same location really researched their frozen yogurt and had something much more tasty. Especially considering you're paying a 25% premium over a non-beach price I would not recommend this place. read more

Wow, just read the poor review below and have to say, we had a completely different experience. We found Sweet Cups to be clean, the yogurt to be delicious, the toppings fresh and plentiful, and the service very friendly! read more

Took the family the first day of our Memorial Day vacation. Great yogurt shop...I detracted a star only because my kids drove me crazy wanting to go EVERY day. It's not Sweet Cups' fault, but hey, I had to take the incessant whining out on somebody! read more

Absolutely awesome. Definitely recommend going. My cousin and I had some great times there and the flavored were delicious. We became friends with the owner and hope she remembers us because we plan to stop in when we stay in corolla light next year! read more

We stopped in here after a bike ride with the kids and wanted to try out the froyo. I believe this is the only one in the Corolla area, but we were staying right around the corner from this shopping area so I wanted to check it out anyways. They had a good selection of frozen yogurts to choose from as well as the toppings. Everyone loved the frozen yogurt. The prices are also very reasonable. If you're looking to have some frozen yogurt and are in this area, definitely check it out! read more

Awesome shop! So clean and fresh. My family loves it here. We even had it for dinner one night. There are so many great yogurt flavors. Different ones too. Not the same old ho-hum ones you find in other shops. Love that you can mix them and make your own. Tons of toppings to choose from. Super friendly service. This place put smiles on my family's faces all vacation long. I think we've found a new beach tradition. read more

Amazing gelato! Service was wonderful and the shop was very clean. I recommend this place to anyone visiting Corolla!

we enjoyed the shop, employees, and of course, the yogurt...so glad we found them in the outer banks
