For those with dietary restrictions- Bad-I’ll start here since it’s why I wanted to post. Ordered vegan fudge. Asked if there were any nuts bc my toddler daughter has milk, egg and various nut allergies. Should’ve noticed a slight hesitation on the workers part but he said ‘no, you’re good.’ Tried it a couple days later, and she had a big anaphylactic reaction 😲. I called manager who looked up ingredients and found it had cashew butter in it. Luckily, I gave her a small piece and had medicine ready to give her to blunt the reaction some bc she had one other nut accident in the past which was a disaster. Ultimately, I hold myself responsible as a parent for my child, and I took 10 percent more lax approach than I could have. I def asked about the ingredients but this time I didn’t have him go in the back to look at ingredient list and was a little too casual with like a 19y/o working. also there was another vegan fudge option with peanuts, so I just assumed after the workers response they recognize ppl want it with nuts and an option without which of course was a wrong assumption. Obviously upset with the worker, but I think the manager appeared upset and said he would tell the worker and staff about being careful but of course can’t confirm that after I had called. But posting so other dietary needy people are aware.
Good-before getting the vegan chocolate with nuts in it, we had tried the vegan ice creams, a few flavors. They really were bomb tbh. Awesome options and every flavor had every ingredient listed. So high recommend for the ice creams. I later pieced together the ice creams were from an outside company that probably is used to dietary related questions so has a little card with all ingredients. Whatever company they get the ice cream from, they do a great job. Probably again a reason I didn’t hound the worker about the vegan fudge ingredients more. But the vegan ice cream company products are more clearly identified whereas the products made in house are not.
Anyway, of course some good some bad. If you know to ask more diligently about ingredients it really was a delicious place. Not trying to overly harp on the problem here but think it’s important searching for allergy related questions.

All vegan ice cream and fudge. Yummy flavors, but the price is way too high for the portions. Toppings are an extra $1-$1.50, but they barely give you any. It's not worth making the trip just for this place, but if you're already in the neighborhood it's a good stop.

I had taken my daughter there to try and make an awesome memory with her and the curly haired man came out of the back with the most smug look and had the audacity to tell my daughter and I that "the chocolate's are kinda expensive...." I was taken aback by his comment that we just left. All I was trying to do is put some joy in her life and he took that moment away. Please have compassion and understanding towards potential customers especially if there is a CHILD PRESENT!

Candy was mid, and a nice variety, but cashier was extremely rude and overcharged 2 bags of candy for 50 bucks. She was also disrespectful and pissy to children. So my recommendation to you is to get some friendlier employees who fit the setting of a candy shop and not that of a Hot Topic.

Cute little candy store. Not as much selection as I would have wanted, but it was still a fun, quirky little stop.

Everyone was very friendly, and they let our children try the ice cream since it is vegan. Our son loved the chocolate, but our daughter wasn't a fan. But that was okay because they had so many candy choices, so she was fine. By the time I was ready to take a photo, our son had already devoured his cone.

This is the best ice cream I’ve ever had ever, we ordered the snickerdoodle and oatmeal and I couldn’t get enough of it. The service was excellent very friendly and sweet staff which is also hard to find too. I can’t wait to go back!

I imagine the staff might have been exhausted from the eclipse-viewing tourist crowds, but I can merely report my experience. The store did have lots of unusual candy brands, but nothing in particular appealed to me so I decided to have some of their vegan ice cream, especially because I appreciate their decision to serve *only* a vegan ice cream brand. After I ordered the cone, asking for about half the usual amount of ice cream because I wanted to eat less sugar, the server (I'm serious) refused to give me the *smaller* amount of ice cream that I requested on my cone. (No, I had not accepted the cone and then changed my mind - I do understand that nuance of sanitation - I hadn't touched the cone, I asked twice and I did not ask to be charged less.) This unpleasant interaction marred what would have been a fun visit to the Yummi Joy store. Oh but the ice cream was very good, so I do recommend that you try it!

Erica is the most kind person in Austin! They helped my daughter and I get out of our weird funk by just taking a few extra seconds to actually connect with us! I really I appreciate my experience and Erica deserves a big raise!!
The ice cream here is absolutely amazing. I’m not vegan but I would come here every week if I was local. The lemon Meyer was incredible.

I always get coffee here before work because they don't charge more for dairy free milk! It's really nice to not feel extorted for being lactose intolerant, plus their espresso bar is already great regardless!

We were just looking for some ice cream coming into downtown for some site seeing. Didn't know it was vegan but a pleasant surprise. The coconut milk gives the ice cream an interesting twist and flavor. Enjoyed it thoroughly.
