Sweet Caroline's

Okay so I've been visiting the Jalapenos location a few doors down from Sweet Caroline's since the 90s and have often wondered about this place. This past fall after dinner with my parents, in my third trimester of pregnancy, I found myself craving some ice cream so we thought we'd give this place a try. Oh my god, how I have been missing out. The first thing you should note is that they sell many homemade chocolates, which I think must be what they are known for, as it definitely is more of a candy/ chocolate shop than an ice cream parlor. All of the chocolates looked wonderful, but I was craving ice cream, and it was a warm October night so that's what I zeroed in on. What really excited me is that they carry Silas and Maddy's ice cream. Like, what? I have never seen Sylas and Maddy's outside of their two local locations and frankly they are the best in town IMO. Essentially, Sweet Caroline's is a hidden gem and one that I'll be visiting again.

I love coming to Sweet Caroline's for a chocolate fix! I always get the milk chocolate salted caramels. They are so good! They always have plenty of fudge options and have some really interesting flavors. Most recently we tried the cookies and cream and enjoyed it. The ice cream here is great as well. There is not a ton of seating but I have never seen it get too busy. The staff here is always quick and kind. I will definitely continue to return!

This area of Overland Park is old enough to feel small town, but is so close to Town Center and Scheel's. We came for Jalapenos, but didn't want to miss out on trying this cute little ice cream shop. The interior has the old school sweets shop feel, and has very little seating towards the back. The ice cream is homemade ,and features hometown favorites named after local teams. I opted for the cherry limeade and a scoop of cake batter as well on a cake cone. I also got a caramel apple as well on my second visit. Cherry limeade: so, so good. Somehow creamy, but tart as well.Cake Batter: reminds you of Coldstone's version, but without the chewy texture. The caramel apple:This won't be repeated, I wasn't impressed.This will be a regular stop for us, love it!

Delicious ice cream and a nice variety of flavors. The only thing I would ask is smaller baby cones. I have a small stomach and I can't eat much. The variety of candy and sweets was delightful. Definitely a place to satisfy that sweet tooth.The gentleman that waited on us was so nice and very patient as we all decided what flavors we wanted. When we come back to visit our friends, we will definitely ask to come back here!

First time here. Had the cake batter 2 scoops with chocolate/ peanut butter waffle cone- AMAZING!!! Cake batter was spot on!!! Also did their buy 4 pieces of fudge get 2 free. The fudge was amazing and beyond fresh!!! This is quite the store for kids to shop candies, or goodies--Sweet tooth delight!!They have quite the arrangement of choices and desserts. I WILL BE BACK!!!

Such a cool local store! Sweet Caroline's is like an old-fashioned soda shop with homemade ice cream, candy by the pound, retro treats, and a very tempting display case filled with lots of decadent items. The day we were in, we were the only customers and Caroline's son was working. He was so friendly and funny and told us all about their products. Their chocolate is made in their on-site kitchen. Very impressive. We got several pieces of chocolate to go, and he told us how to transport it home so it'd stay the right temperature, and how to care for it when we got home. You don't get this level of customer service often, so it was so nice to experience. We got fudge, 4 caramels, 2 chocolate covered Oreos, 2 cherry cordials, and 4 chocolate covered orange slices. It totaled just under $20, which I think is a very good deal for handcrafted candies. Our treats were amaaaaazing- especially the chocolate covered orange slices. They're a favorite of my mom's, but are getting difficult to find, or when I do they're made with imitation orange and are disappointing in flavor. The ones sold here are the real deal- SO GOOD! Most of their candy is available in milk & dark chocolate. They also have lots in white chocolate, and even a few sugar-free. They have a huge selection of caramel apples too- they're beautifully decorated. I'm telling everyone I know about this place. It's worth the trek from KC. Go check it out!

Cute little sweets shop. They've got ice cream, candy, fudge, candy apples -- you name it. If you love Sylas and Maddy's ice cream, they sell it here!! I don't have to drive to Olathe to get ice cream anymore! If you got a sweet tooth, you just have to check it out.

This is such an adorable quaint place. There is no seating inside however there is seating outside. This is definitely a chocolate lovers place they have anything you could possibly think of covered in chocolate and they do it beautifully. They have a case of different types of fudge, A case of all kinds of different dipped apples, A case of different types of chocolate covered items and a case of Sylas and Maddys ice cream. They also have a wall of candy by the pound and nostalgic candy's. So many different gift ideas for the chocolate lover you know. The service is beyond outstanding they offer fudge samples as well as ice cream samples. They offer different types of waffle cones and although they do not make the waffle cones in house they do dip them in house. This is truly a hidden gem.

I love this place. Fun candy in bulk. The kids love mix & matching their favorites and trying new things. The chocolate & fudge selection is exquisite and there's nothing better than Sylas & Maddy's ice cream. This is a regular stop for us when we are on our way to Grandma's house.

All the trappings of an old fashioned candy store with an added icecream bonus!This is not a pretentious fancy store. Instead it's a quaint little shop nestled down between a karate school and a Mexican restaurant. It's so small it's almost squeezed into the strip mall. There is outside seating, which makes for a nice summer ice cream shop experience. Once inside the walking isle around the counter is not very wide. You are greatest with shelves of hand made fudge and other treats with a small shelf of seasonal items to the right. Around the left is a long wall of bins of candy that you can fill bags with and an ice cream counter across from the wall. There isn't a lot of room to move, so browsing people can make it a little congested. Further back there is some indoor seating. The quality of the ice cream is superb. The selections range from vanilla to peanut butter freak. They also offer a wide selection of dipped cones. Except for the lack of space, the selection reminds me of a Baskin Robbins.There is no mixing of candy into the ice cream like a Cold Stone, but you can buy your candy in bags and eat it with your icecream, if you need that.The staff was friendly and helpful. We got a free taste of fudge before making our selections, and ended up buying slightly more than planned. Great place :-)
