What’s not to love? Giant scoops of ice cream sandwiched between two fresh baked cookies! Great customer service as well. Adults and kids are now fully stuffed after a fun day at the beach.
Went to get custom ice cream sandwiches on a visit to Austin. It was absolutely magical. They had GF cookies and vegan ice cream. GF cookies could have been a better texture but everything tasted great.
EK was super kind and friendly!! Icecream and cookies were equally delicious!!
