👻🍦Dig into the Graveyard Sundae - the spookiest treat in town, created by Sweet Spot Alumni Riley Fahy! We've resurrected the ultimate flavor combination: rich Hershey's Midnight Caramel River ice cream lined with eerie green icing, piled high with fluffy whipped creme, and showered in festive Halloween sprinkles. To top it off, we've laid your cravings to rest with two Milano tombstone cookies. Hurry in - this hauntingly delicious creation will vanish into the night at the end of the month! 👻🍦

Putting the "sweet" in future sweat equity! 🍦💼 We had a blast partnering with White Oak Elementary School (last night) and Elementary School (two Fridays ago - we even had a "pirate" show up to scoop!) for our September Spirit Nights. We love supporting our local kiddos—and let's be honest, we're totally using this as an early recruitment strategy for future staff. They already have the ice cream eating part down perfectly! 😂🍨

Supporting our local schools and kiddos and creating Sweet memories along the way.

🏖️ Move over, Michelangelo, Blakely Wilson from Inwood, WV is taking over the beach art scene! 🎨

😂Honestly, the only thing we usually manage to make in the sand is a highly depressing hole. Meanwhile, Blakely is out here sketching a whole majestic dolphin jumping out of the water! 🐬💥

10/10 for creativity. 0/10 chance we could ever replicate this without it looking like a squiggly potato. 🥔🌊

Sweet Spot family, this one is special! 🥹

👇This past weekend, we got to celebrate the beautiful wedding of our ultimate Sweet Spot Alumna, Courtney, and her husband, Cameron! 🥂

✨Courtney holds the legendary title of our longest-ever employee, meaning she has single-handedly served more of you than anyone else! She is the definition of kind, smart, and hardworking. Getting to share in her big day was pure joy.

Bonus: The wedding turned into a mini Sweet Spot Reunion! We had nine former employees together in one place, representing nearly 50 summers of scoop-shop history. 🍦☀️We feel profoundly grateful and blessed to have these amazing people in our lives. Cheers to Courtney and Cameron! 🎉🥂

🍦 Future Ice Cream King in the making!

Every year, Tyler and his family make Sweet Spot a must-visit tradition—and this year, he came fully prepared to learn from the pros! He told us he wants to be an ice cream man when he grows up, and judging by that double thumbs-up, he’s already mastered the art of serving up smiles. Keep dreaming big, Tyler!
