What People Are Saying
from Google"I was passing through Wausau and had time to kill so I walked around downtown. Found my way in here and the atmosphere was very welcoming and fun. The person behind the counter was very helpful and fun to talk to. If you're getting ice cream, try their flavor called "This Just Got Serious". It's great!"
"This is the best local sweets shop in the area. If you want treats from local artisans, be it candy, soda, or ice cream, this is the place to go. The Italian Sodas and Root beer Floats are amazing too. There is simply not a product they don't do right. And the service is exceptional and the atmosphere beautiful and pristine. I love this place!"
"Excellent chocolate shop ice cream! Generous scoops and no ice crystals - nice and smooth ice cream"
"Delicious ice cream, friendly service, and an inviting atmosphere. Serves Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream (from Madison, WI). Highly recommend!"
"Friendly staff selling great ice cream & chocolates. There really isn't much more I can say. The chocolate truffles are a bit on the pricey side but they are divine when you want to treat yourself. Would love if I could watch them being made."
