The Ice Dreammm Shop is a small, family-owned, magical little ice cream joint with two locations in the Lutz and Wesley Chapel areas. They’ve won multiple awards—including making a list for best ice cream in Tampa Bay and in the country—so you know their ice cream is peak quality. I’ve been here quite a few times because they have multiple vegan options, and as someone with a mild dairy allergy, I really appreciate it! It’s difficult to find ice cream places near me that serve dairy free ice cream, much less a variety of flavors. On this visit, I decided to go all out (per usual with desserts).
My favorite ice cream flavor at the Ice Dreammm Shop is their Vegan Double Chocolate Coconut, which is made with a coconut base, rich cocoa, and thick chocolate pieces. But I didn’t just want ice cream this time. Not only do they serve delicious ice cream, but the Ice Dreammm Shop always has a variety of baked treats available that you can make a sundae with. They always have brownies, chocolate chip and sugar cookies available, but they also serve differing specialty sweets, too. This time, I was intrigued by a Coconut Chocolate Chip Blondie on display. I snatched the last one and made it a sundae with a scoop of Vegan Double Chocolate Coconut and hot fudge on top.
This combination was ridiculously rich and sugary—so much that I had to stop before I could finish. I rarely regret a dessert though, and I didn’t regret this one at all! The Double Chocolate Coconut ice cream was cold, creamy, and smooth. I happened to get a large scoop the size of a baseball, which I was happy about. The chocolate flavor tasted extremely rich, just as I’d remembered! And the hot fudge on top was syrupy, making it honey-sweet. The blondie beneath was humongous! I couldn’t believe how big it was. Its texture was very thick and a bit difficult to cut into, but once in my mouth it was pleasantly chewy and filled with crunchy chocolate chips. It also had coconut flakes throughout that made the coconut flavor throughout this whole dessert strong. The flavors and textures all combined so well together!
I can’t wait to come back!
