They're food was fantastic! So sweet and they're kind enough for samples! So amazing!
I really like their ice cream. I visited this place twice but my second time experience was really good. I got raspberry cheesecake with raffle cone for me..
I really wanted to like this place. The vibe is cute, the location is great, and I had high hopes walking in. Unfortunately, my experience today left a bad taste in my mouth — and it wasn’t from the coffee.
I ordered a cold brew latte and was immediately hit with how overly sweet it was. Sweet Cream, I get it — but this was more sugar than brew. Trying to salvage the drink, I politely asked if they could cut it with a little bit of the plain cold brew black iced coffee they had on hand. The staff member agreed initially, but then told me I’d have to pay for an entire second coffee just to make the adjustment. Seriously?
When I asked if I could simply switch to the regular iced coffee — a cheaper menu item — I was told no, with zero attempt to accommodate or meet me halfway. I wasn’t asking for anything free — just a reasonable solution for a drink I had already paid for that wasn’t what I expected. I left the latte and the iced cold brew that she wasted behind.
Customer service matters, and how a business handles small moments like these says a lot. Two stars for the ice cream and cute vibes.
Would like more sugar free or half-sugar options
A+Ice Cream and Sorbet!! I had the lime, mango, strawberry sorbet it was awesome!
We found this ice cream place when we were in town for a conference and liked it so much that we returned several days in a row! The ice cream was so creamy and delicious, the staff was friendly and the place was clean! There was a line but it moved quickly! It is downtown so parking was tricky, but the ice cream is worth the parking issues!
Good ice cream! Fresh made cones are delicious! Downtown pricing with ice cream and cone separate. $7 Large scoops!
Coconut with almond is tasty 😍
Love the ice cream, best I’ve ever had. And I have had ice cream in many places. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. My favorite flavor is Chai Spice, but all other flavors are pretty tasty! 😋 😍
Got the snicker doodle milkshake and loved it!

After a late lunch on a Thursday afternoon in January, we took a stroll down Main St. and came across Sweet Cream Co.
A lovely little sweets shop… as we opened the door the smell of the fresh baked homemade Brookies carried us right in. I did plan to grab one to go but got distracted trying to decide on what flavored scoops I wanted.
Alice, the young lady who served us was just as sweet as the treats, and she was extremely patience as I worked thru my indecisiveness in real time. I sampled the Bourbon Dark Cherry and Banana Pudding, both were really good and made my decision making even harder.
I ultimately decided on sorbet since we just had lunch and went with the Raspberry Sparkletini and Lemon. They were lite and refreshing and didn’t leave me feeling heavy or stuffed. The tart of the lemon with flakes of lemon zest helped to balance the sweetness of the raspberry sparkletini. While both ice cream samplings were delicious the sorbet was the right choice.
A stroll and 2 scoops for $6.75, was the perfect way to cap the afternoon. However, I will be back for both the brookies and banana pudding ice cream.
Just A Note:
They make waffle cones from scratch.

I have no idea how I missed this quaint ice cream shop! It's been opened for 13 years. The flavors are not only unique but made in their shop. I had the poached pear which I will definitely plan to come by for more! I highly recommend.

The poached pear Riesling sorbet was absolutely to die for! My daughter loved the Madagascar vanilla and honestly for such good dessert, $9.75 was not a bad price.

Best ice cream I've eaten in the USA! The original tastes change regularly, a good reason to return.

I was in Columbia, SC, this past weekend for the grand opening of YourWay Self Storage and decided to explore some local spots I can’t find in Florida. Being an ice cream lover, I was excited to discover Sweet Cream on Main Street—it’s such a cute little spot!
I decided to try something new and ordered the “Not Too Salty Pretzels” flavor. It was okay, but next time I’ll stick to my usual favorites. The experience and the shop’s charm still made it worth the visit, and I’d definitely come back to try more!
