It may be a late summer addition but Sweet Caroline's Ice Cream & Treats will welcome you with open-armed hospitality, great service and chalk-boards full of 'Kool' sweet selections! These frosty delights and toppings can be dressed in scrumptious homemade waffle cones or slathered on top of Poffertjes, a traditional Dutch treat of mini, fluffy pancakes made with yeast and buckwheat flour. The name alone invokes visions of carnivals, festivities and palatal pleasure! This is a worthwhile trip, yielding a delightful beginning!

Great location and customer service…read more Scones: Decent. A little sweet (which I like), served with whipped cream and strawberry jam. Fruit: The fruit was the best part of all our meals here. It was so fresh and sweet, which I thought would be difficult to find outside of California! I also enjoyed it with cottage cheese, which is not so common at breakfast spots in California unfortunately. Tea: The tea is enjoyable but pretty average when compared to bougier tea spots like The Bruce in Stratford. It's not clear how long I should let it steep for for optimal flavor. I preferred the Winter Dream green tea, which was warm and cozy, slightly sweet. I also preferred the McCrae over the Boathouse blend. The Boathouse blend was a little basic for me, and the McCrae had a slight sweetness that I enjoyed. High Tea: Average - a good price and pleasant experience, especially if the weather is nice enough to eat outside (and catch a bald eagle flying by!). My favorite dessert was the carrot cake cupcake. Ice Cream: Yes, ice cream and tea is definitely a good idea! The banana cream pie tastes like your classic Runts banana flavor (the original banana that got wiped out) and the black cherry has plenty of big cherry pieces. Great servings, and we loved that they served them in reusable bowls instead of disposable ones. Would definitely come again!

I am so happy that we did because the pistachio gelato I ordered and the cookies and creme my boyfriend had were amazing! The consistency was perfect; smooth and creamy! The flavor was spot on, tasted great and came with a complimentary waffle slice! There were two women working while I went in and they were very pleasant, helped us out and let us try as many flavors of gelato that we wanted. The shop itself is small and quaint, with lots of sweet options. What caught my eye were the salt water taffy in many odd flavors such as maple bacon. Unfortunately I didn't grab any, I am still regretting that but there is always next time because I will be back!

The milkshake itself was a tad on the sweeter side, but still a refreshing drink on a hot summer day :)

There are a lot of wonderful shops, and it's very walkable. We stopped in this story, which is nominally an olive oil and herbs shop, but because it was summertime and it is hot, I suspect they decided to diversify, and they also have some ice cream. It was good, but not jump-out-of-your-skin wonderful. The counter was a little disorganized for checking out, but it seems like it would be a better place to visit for olive oil purposes.

I was here on a walking culinary tour…read more The tour met at our first stop where we were introduced to Harisson, our fabulous tour guide. The Village Olive Grove is a gourmet extra virgin olive oil and vinegar shop that imports from all over the world. There we learned how to tell if extra virgin olive oil is authentic and how it's made. We also learned how to taste vinegar without the acidic flavour getting in the way. Just when you think you're a foodie, you learn something new! Love it! Last, but not least, we sampled Mapleton's Organic Ice Cream. It was flavoured with dandelion. It had a mild mocha flavour. Pretty good! We all looked worried when he said it was made with dandelion, but were all impressed. The owner is very knowledgeable and will allow you to sample any oil or vinegar in the store. The prices are higher than grocery stores, but you're here for the quality and you will definitely get it!

The soft serve ice cream is very good as well, though the chocolate dip does overpower it a bit. I feel like next time I'll just get a regular plain cone, mainly because the dip is very thick and after a while it becomes a bit too sweet. I definitely want to try the milkshakes they had advertised next time.
