Sundaes and Cones – Sweets – East Village – NYC Restaurant Reviews

I like ice cream more than any other dessert. I rarely order it in restaurants, because it’s usually not being made in-house, but I lovelovelove to visit ice cream parlors. I wanted to try Sundaes and Cones, I’ll admit, because I read a review that described their scoops as “too big“, and I thought that was idiotic.

I tried the corn and the chocolate-peanut butter flavor and would happily go back for both. I thought the corn could use some of the berry swirl you usually see at other gourmet parlors to sweeten it up a bit more, but someone who likes less-sweet desserts would love this one. And, well, the picture pretty much tells you how chocolatey that chocolate scoop is. Not an ice cream for those afraid of flavor. Not one for those afraid of gluttony, either.

Corn? Is that a thing, like how lavender and olive oil and basil and stuff make for good gelato? Because, CORN? I mean, I do like candy corn though.

So Jeni’s is totally unoriginal in its berry-swirled corn? That’s disappointing.

Jeni’s is actually the first place I ever saw corn ice cream, so I’m going to go ahead and say it was their invention just because I like to give Ohio a little credit.
