If I could give Nicky's ten stars I would. SIMPLY THE BEST ICE CREAM AND DONUTS I have ever had. The ice cream is amazing. Creamy with delicious flavours . . . and all natural. They also have sorbets. We have tried the strawberry, the avocado (!!!!), and the lime and cherry ice cream. All were extraordinary. Can't wait to try more flavours.
The donuts are to die for. I rarely allow myself donuts or ice cream, but I have been to Nicky's twice in the last week!!! As with the ice cream, the donuts are handmade with some very different choices. Imagine . . . a Peanut Butter and Jam donut . . . delicious. The lime cruller was unbelievable. The apple fritter was also fabulous.
They change the ice cream and donuts, so there is always something new to try. Collingwood is very fortunate to have this quality of ice cream and donuts. In addition to all that, the owners are incredibly kind and nice. So, make sure you try Nicky's . . . you won't be...
Read moreSuch a cute little shop. We came here today to try their donuts. We got an ensaymada and a strawberry crumble. I wasn’t sure about the ensaymada because there is cheddar cheese on top, but I was pleasantly surprised. It doesn’t really taste like cheese. The donut was so fluffy and the buttercream was so smooth and creamy. The strawberry crumble donut was nice and fruity.
We ended up coming back a couple hours later to try their ice cream. So glad we did! We got the peanut butter fudge ripple brownie and the coffee stracciatella flavours. The peanut butter one was very strong and had almost a peanut butter texture, but it was really good (as long as you like peanut butter). I preferred the coffee one. The texture was different- almost more like a sorbet texture, but the flavour was amazing.
Staff were really friendly (I think one of them was Nicky himself), which added to the experience.
Do yourself a favour and give...
Read moreStopped in for a quick treat while visiting Blue Mountain. This shop is tucked away on a side street which is nice because Hurontario can be a bit hectic and hard to find parking. The gentleman who served me was warm & friendly. He shared his recommendations for ice cream and let me try a couple of flavours before I decided to go with sweet corn & blueberry (so unique!). Bonus point for not charging extra for waffle cones from plain. I was a little disappointed at the lack of donut options at 1:30pm but it shows they’re popular so good for them! We really enjoyed the yeasty donut (matcha banana) - nice texture and bold flavouring, however the honey miso butter was a bit of a miss. The glaze made the outside crunchy and inside was dry, also couldn’t pick up miso flavour, in fact my just eating it I wouldn’t be able to guess what it’s supposed to be. I’ll pre-order next time to make sure I get the...
