    Amazing ice cream in Anchorage. We stopped on our way from a cruise. Kids tried POG, Chocolate flavors. They liked them. We tried wildwood and blueberry flavors. All excellent. Highly recommend.

    Campfire Smores flavor

    As whelmed as I was by my Campfire Smores flavored Ice cream from the Box Container stall outside 49th state brewing, mywife loved her vegan flavor. I did too. So much, we went back the next night to their more downtown location, where she got the same thing and I got the rhubarb crumble before walking back to our AirBNB. Both were amazing. Highly recommend if you're in anchorage

    Baked Alaska ice cream cone - it's a must

    This is a walk-up corner of heaven. Baked Alaska ice cream cones are divine! The ice cream is quality, the cones are crispy, and who doesn't love toasted marshmallow cream? Since it's a walk-up, the vibe is very summer, friendly, and welcoming. Service is as fast as the line allows. Worth it!

    Arrived in the Land of the Midnight Sun right in time for the summer solstice where I am experiencing literally the longest day of the year. Sun rose at 4:21am and is suppose to set at 11:41pm in Anchorage. However, it doesn't truly get dark as twilight lingers for hours. What screams summer more than us screaming for ice cream for handcrafted Alaskan Wild Blueberry ice cream made from Wild AK blueberries after a walk on the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail.

    Yumm!!! They have some interesting flavors! I got to visit this place twice during my trip in Alaska and I like how the flavors also rotate. I tried the white raven which was similar to a cookies and cream and then I also tried the Sitka swirl which was really good with the caramel and sea salt! Make sure you try this spot if you're visiting Alaska!

    Baked Alaska with Blueberry and White Raven (Oreo)

    We visited Wild Scoops twice during our two days in Anchorage, so I guess that review speaks for itself. Our first visit was to the E Street walk-up. It looks like maybe it once was a walk-in, but this current setup works. The line was a few people deep but moved fast. I had a double scoop in a cup - the Wild Blueberry and Campfire (think s'mores ingredients). The Blueberry was smooth and delicious, and the Campfire was full of nibs and chunks. Also delicious and I'd have a hard time saying which I liked better. A double scoop is $8. Add $3.25 more and upgrade to "Baked Alaska-style," which is your scoops in a waffle cone with a toasted marshmallow topping. My daughter would like you to know that you won't regret it.

    Heard about this place online & reviews were amazing so we decided to check it out & it was delicious!! Different homemade flavors & options like the baked Alaska (fired Marshmallow cream on top). A must try!

    A must try in Anchorage! I tried a flavor which was about wild berries or something, and another really nice one. Service is very friendly here!

    Long line but quick service! The marshmallow topping was so delicious and the ice cream was creamy.

    Very delicious and fun way to eat ice cream. The cashier was very nice and patient as I asked many questions! I tried the rhubarb baked Alaska. So yummy! To eliminate confusion, choose the ice cream flavor you want, the size of scoop and how many scoops, when you say baked Alaska that means the waffle cone with marshmallow fluff. I may have visited twice in one day

    Got to experience this absolutely amazing ice cream shop on vacation. They have some of the most amazing selections of homemade ice creams and then to add the Alaskan bake on top!? (Marshmallow creme fluff that is toasted). The place is had a line outside the door, for good reason. Inside was adorable and quaint, with plenty of room to maneuver about. Staff were busy and on it, but also patient with customers. I personally love the Sitka Swirl and Fireweed ice cream flavors. The Sitka has a delicious salted caramel flavor, while the Fireweed was very floral and sweet. I recommend 15/10

    Todays menu!

    Local ice cream? Yes, please. Add in local flavors like Fireweed? Oh, we're in! We enjoyed our one stop at Wild Scoops during our few nights in Anchorage. My wife and I shared a small with Fireweed and Rhubarb Crumble. We hadn't seen these flavors anywhere else in the world at an ice cream shop so it was a delight to experience them. The fireweed was a unique Alaska-only flavor and the rhubarb crumble (our favorite of the two) was an indulgent treat! There are a number of other treats to try besides their daily flavors in cups or cones including sampler flights, "frozen nachos", and a Baked Alaska! Every time we walked by there was a line of varying lengths but it went fairly quickly so don't get turned off by that. It's a window front establishment so the line and service is on the street. They're open every day 12 noon to 10pm.

    Some of the best ice cream i've ever had, and there wasn't that big of a line, the Ambiance was very calm and rustic.

    I would give the Fireweed ice cream in a waffle cone 10 stars if possible! Do not miss this spot if you are in Anchorage!

    Softer - Chocolate with a Nutella taiyaki

    Softer

    4.4(15 reviews)

    I went a few months ago and they still were making a hole in the middle of the ice cream which…read morestill completely upset me lol BUT I WENT TONIGHT BEFORE THEY CLOSED!!!! LADIES AND GENTLEMAN!!! no hole in the middle of the ice cream!! Just PURE ICE CREAM THROUGHOUT THE CUP!!!! I can't express how happy I was so scoop into it and see there was no hole!!! Loved it!!!!! And the ladies tonight, they were wonderful!! (Sorry! No photo...I devoured it so fast!!!)

    Taiyaki is a delicious Japanese street food. A fish shaped pastry stuffed with filling like read…read morebean paste & custard. In the warmer months the taiyaki are also stuffed with soft serve ice cream. This street food has become popular in the USA with dedicated taiyaki ice cream spots popping up, and we finally have a shop in Alaska that serves this delectable treat. Softer opened at the end of December in the Diamond center food court. I went to check them out in February, and the taiyaki were fresh, crispy, and had a decent amount of filling. Now the taiyaki wasn't the same consistency as the ones I had in Japan, but it's not really fair to compare things in Alaska to their country of origin. The texture wasn't 100% correct, but it was pretty nicely crispy, and not overly chewy. I had heard from a few other people that when they went the texture wasn't correct & too chewy so consistency may be a bit of an issue, but they are a new business to that can be rectified. The soft serve ice cream was also very good. I ordered 2 "upside down" Taiyaki ice creams which comes with choice of 2 toppings. You can just order a Taiyaki filled with ice cream which doesn't come on a cup, or the Taiyaki pastry on its own without ice cream. If you're not feeling the Taiyaki you can also just get the soft serve ice cream, a milkshake, or a snow bowl (this looks like a variation of bingsu). I ordered chocolate soft serve with a Nutella filled Taiyaki topped with sprinkles, and a matcha/chocolate swirl soft serve with an ube filled Taiyaki topped with Oreo & graham cracker crumbs. The portion size on the soft serve was good for the price ($7). The chocolate ice cream was standard chocolate soft serve, but I really liked the Nutella taiyaki. The matcha ice cream actually had a strong, and not overly artificial matcha tea flavor. Next time I won't get it swirled with chocolate as the chocolate overpowered the matcha. I don't know if I'd get the ube filled taiyaki again. The ube filling was pretty artificial so it's not my preference. The toppings were also fairly sparse, but that doesn't really matter to me. Overall it's a great treat. Service was quick when we went. There was no line, and you just order at a kiosk & the person makes what you order. It's located right in the mall food court by the ice rink so if you're looking for ambiance it's not really going to be this place. I definitely will be back to get some Taiyaki ice cream again, and maybe try their snow bowls. Excited to have something different in Anchorage! This place is definitely a good spot next time you want some soft serve ice cream.
