    3 Spots to Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth

    Whether you’re craving the rich flavors of handmade fudge or needing the perfect scoop of your favorite delicious ice cream, Lancaster has a great variety of fantastic foodie finds you don’t want to miss.

     

    Here are three spots to satisfy your sweet tooth this summer and give your taste buds a tart and tangy dessert celebration.

    LANCASTER CUPCAKE

     

    The cupcakes here are just as beautiful as they are delicious. From themed cupcakes to make your party pop to new flavors almost every week, this is one cupcake spot you can’t miss. Some of our favorite summer flavors include Lemon Blueberry, Sangria, Pineapple Paradise, Peanut Butter Fluff, and Mocha. And you have to try the Cupcake Split–a cupcake sliced in half with soft-serve ice cream in the middle. Our mouths are already watering.

    SPLITS & GIGGLES CAFE

     

    There is just something extra special about a delicious scoop (or two, or three, or four) of ice cream on a hot summer day. Splits & Giggles has you covered. With all your favorite flavors plus some unique tastes, you’ll be sure to find one you love here. Also, you have to check out the Banana Split and Milkshakes too. Or if you want to stock up at home for those sweet cravings feel free to purchase a quart or two! And with a full sandwich, soup, and salad menu, this can be your one-stop foodie shop next visit.

    SWEET LEGACY GOURMET

     

    If you’re craving something sweet, look no further than this sugary destination. With a store in Lititz and a stand at Central Market in Lancaster, Sweet Legacy Gourmet is serving-up some wonderfully-sweet concoctions. We’re loving the classic cookies, handcrafted fudge, and creamy caramel. And we can’t get enough of the addictive caramel popcorn that is bursting with sweet, buttery flavor and a hint of salt. But don’t take it from us–indulge in this legacy and we promise you’ll return again and again.
