On a scorching hot summer's day in Florida, nothing beats an ice cream cone, drizzled in melt-in-your mouth hot chocolate fudge, caramel, or for the kids at heart, and kids in general - sprinkles. And for those living in or vacationing in Treasure Island, Florida, it's no different. For that reason, we've scoured the southern-most Gulf Beaches of Pinellas to give you the inside 'scoop' on the area's top spots for ice cream!
Larry's
A longtime fixture on St. Pete Beach, Larry's offers the kind of old-fashioned ice cream parlor found in few places these days. Offering over 80 flavors, including frozen yogurt and 10 flavors of no-sugar added and low fat options, as well as 94% fat free gelato, Larry's offers something for everyone, including those watching their waistlines. Your best bet: the Belgian Waffle Sundae or a Peanut Butter Heaven Parfait.
Paradise Sweets
Located in Pass-a-Grille Beach, Paradise Sweets isn't just known for its frozen goodness, but also its coffee, with the rich, bold flavor of espresso creating a truly aromatic experience for patrons. Offering Working Cow ice cream, it's served ultra thick and creamy - just the way you like it. Offering 28 flavors of ice cream and a plethora of unique organic roasted coffees, Paradise Sweets isn't just an ice cream shop - it's your neighborhood coffee shop!
Super Scoops
Located on Gulf Boulevard in Treasure Island, this is the place to go to for either a chocolate milkshake or a super-sized banana split! Personally, I prefer the Brownie Sundae, topped with homemade hot fudge. Portions are huge, and it's a family-owned and operated business, so they are more than accommodating to patrons, offering some of the lowest prices on the beach. They also offer low-fat, low sugar options. Voted Best of the Beaches by Beach Life, and it's within walking distance of several Treasure Island Hotels.
Candy Kitchen
Located on the edge of Madeira Beach, not far from some of the quieter Treasure Island Condos is the legendary mom and pop shop Candy Kitchen. Candy Kitchen has been making homemade ice cream and fudge since 1950. My personal favorite is the Butter Pecan or the Space Ice Cream made with marshmallows! Dieting? Not to worry. The Maple Nut flavor is low in calories and is still very delicious. If you want some fudge, try the Homemade Maple Turtle or the Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge. Both are simply delicious! While parking is a bit of a pain, it's a short walk from Treasure Island Condo Hotels. Besides, whoever said taking a leisurely stroll on the beach was a bad thing?
