This place...let me tell you. I kept joking around all vacation about "Alice Scoopers" because I thought the name was funny. It was on my list of places to try, which is why I kept saying it. My boyfriend got so upset we finally had to go to get me to shut up about it.
Even if you have to drive out of the way, you should still find the time to visit this place. The wide variety of flavors and the "adult" ice cream made me tempted to try more than one. But I had a feeling Sea and Sand was "the one."
I don't know if I can fully relate to you how life changing the Sea and Sand flavor is. I fully believe it is the best ice cream I have ever had in my life. Just the base ice cream was so full of flavor and nuanced that the additions just compounded the complexity and richness. My boyfriend got the oreo themed ice cream and it was ok but I wish we had a shop in Minnesota that had an ice cream like Sea and Sand. Holy cow. I can't even. If you like butter pecan, or macadamia nut cookies, or even butter brickle, this ice cream is going to be right up your alley.
The portions were also great with 3 scoops in a free waffle cone (if desired) for $6. I would have gladly paid even more if they had included a few more chunks of macadamia nut cookie. It seemed a little light on it, but I was glad to taste just how good the base ice cream was.
Also in response to a previous review that someone left about the "new owner" only selling non-homemade ice cream? Whaaaat? I have no idea what they're talking about, because it's obviously home made. The fresh taste alone tells you so.
I truly hope Alice Scooper's is still in the Bradenton area when we decide to venture back to Florida in the...
Read moreWe absolutely love this place! We go treat ourselves almost weekly. So many delicious flavors, I can’t even pick one to be my favorite. Love them all. My husband loves the adult ice cream. The waffle cones are made in house along with all the ice cream. They even have other delicious treats, which I get from time to time. My fav is the rice krispy treats, so good! Don’t forget to ask for a punch card. Each time you go, you get a punch. After 10, you get to spin the bonus wheel and win yourself a prize. The owners and the staff are really nice. If you’re in the area make sure you stop in and give it a try. You...
Read moreWe already love going to Alice Scooper's, so when we saw that ice cream was being given away before the storm, we ran over to score some! The Pistachio and Brown Eyed Girl brought us immense joy while hunkering down during Ian. We've never had such large amounts of ice cream at our disposal. It couldn't have been an easy decision to give away all of your inventory, so we would like to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation. We will continue to choose Alice Scooper's for our ice cream indulgences, and recommend you to folks in the area any...
