While The Spanish Bakery and Cafe has authentic homemade desserts and pastries to compliment your coffee.

The Hyppo Gourmet Ice Pops

An iconic shop on Charlotte Street, The Hyppo Gourmet Ice Pops is a local favorite for its hand made all-natural ice pops made from everything under the sun. These are truly different.

Whetstone Chocolate Tasting Tours

At Whetstone Chocolate Tasting Tours on King Street, you can taste freshly made chocolates and confections while you walk through the factory. Definitely a “must-do” for the chocoholic who appreciates the finest dark, milk and white chocolate confections around.

Peace Pie

While you’re shopping along Aviles Street, the oldest street in the U.S., be sure to stop in at the colorful Peace Pie for the ultimate artisan ice cream sandwich made with homemade ice cream and a layer of pie filling, brownies and caramel.

Creme de la Cocoa & Christy’s Dream Ice Cream

Further uptown, Creme de la Cocoa offers cakes, chocolates, dessert and ice cream. Try the French macarons--they’re as colorful and beautiful to look at as they are to eat. At kid-friendly Christy’s Dream Ice Cream in the Sawgrass Village Shopping Center at Ponte Vedra Beach the ice cream is made from scratch right on site.

Need to cool off at the beach? Head to Coneheads for a classic ice cream cone, or top off a day at the beach with a refreshing ice from Rita's Italian Ice, both at St. Augustine Beach. The kids won’t want to leave, but there’s way more sweet goodness to discover on Florida’s Historic Coast.
