We ain't afraid of no ghosts👻🍦

Huge thanks to all the White Oak Elementary kiddos who haunted our shop last night for Spirit Night! From astronauts needing fuel to Slimer looking for a snack, you all killed it.

Also, shoutout to our staff for surviving the sugar rush and sending these pics!

Stay safe, don't eat all your candy at once, and Happy Halloween! 🎃🕸️

Talk about a tight-knit group! The Twin Rivers Quilters Guild stopped by for some ice cream and a photo op with our favorite dolphin. We’re pretty sure they approved of our layers—even if they are just hot fudge and sprinkles instead of fabric! 🍨✨

👻🍦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. 🥔🌊

🍦 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!
