Scoops Ice Cream & Candy

★★★★★ 4.7 (97) • $

"Came here after dinner and was surprised that this place was packed on a cold fall evening (low 30s outside). It took about 15 minutes before I could order. This shows how popular this place really is. I tried a few samples and I loved that they carry Chocolate Shoppe ice cream- which has always been very tasty. It was reminiscent of my favorite neighborhood ice cream shoppe I used to visit in Chicago. Scoops has a large variety of unique flavors including coffee, classics, and my favorite: peppermint! They also had a separate case of vegan ice cream which is a nice option for the dairy-free community. What I found fun is that Scoops carries different types of cones as well. They had the regular waffle cone (dipped) and sugar/cake cones, and speciality cones made of an actual cookie. Plenty of parking and a very cute deck. Just wish it was warmer so I could eat my Scoops outside!"

Madison Chocolate Company

"Discovered Madison Chocolate Company in my quest to find awesome cinnamon rolls in this area. What I love about this place, even though I'm not a morning person, is that they make limited quantities of things on the weekend. So you have to be there early bird to get the best things. Because one can't just come to a place like this and walk away with one thing, I've also had cookies! I'm not gluten-free, but I appreciate that the offerings are and you "can't tell" as a non GF eater.There's definitely time and attention being put into the chocolates and all the things MCC offers. I follow the Instagram. Do that if you want to be in the know!This location is totally adorable. And car parking challenged. I'm very excited that a second location is opening nearer to me with a parking lot. I'm going to be a weekend regular when the west side spot opens. There enough early on the weekend to get the special weekend only limited edition items."

"Cool store with a ton of candy, chocolate and other items for sale. Located in downtown Antioch which has a lot of other shopping options. When we stopped in during late March they were still a few weeks out from stocking the ice cream. We will stop in again this summer to try their ice cream."

Mellie's Chocolate & Company

"Awesome experience! Love their hand made chocolates and old school candy shop vibe. My wife and I had a big dinner beforehand and wanted to try out a new place locally so we settled on this. We weren't disappointed at all. Though they don't have the largest selection of ice cream flavors, everything there is awesome. You can't choose wrong."

"Some of the best hand made chocolate! Joel has received many a write up for his chocolates and his business. He makes his own candy as well and having wines and salsa and other items from local companies. You can sit and have lunch there as well although we stopped in just for one of his chocolate goodies. We walked out with some chocolate, wine, and salsa. It came recommended via word of mouth so do try to stop by for a visit if you're in the Theresa area."

Becky's Blissful Bakery

"Received a generous selection of Becky's caramels for the holidays and have to say they are outstanding! Smooth texture, great consistency, and really well balanced flavors. It's good to get a great tasting gift. It's even better to get a gift that you know is going to become a regular favorite. The beer and pretzel caramels are the bomb."
