1 Sprinkles

This newly opened ice cream parlor offers 12 flavors made fresh on the premises, a smorgasbord of toppings (chocolates, sprinkles or fruit) and staff that mixes your choice of sweet flavors, teppanyaki-style.

2 The Country’s Best Yogurt

If you love ice cream, but hate the calories, head over to TCBY for a dish of their sugar-free, non-fat, yet 100 percent delicious frozen yogurt.

3 Gustomenta

With over 30 hand-crafted, mouthwatering flavors made exclusively from imported ingredients, this authentic Italian gelato joint is the perfect place to enjoy a sweet treat in stylish environs.

4 Häagen-Dazs

Classic, dependable, delicious but not for those who are faint of heart or palette. It’s what you need if the lighter Chinese ice creams just don’t do it for you.

5 Bellagio

The order of the day here is bingsha, the Taiwanese dessert made from ice, condensed milk, fruits and pretty much any other sweet topping you can think of. The delectable deluge is the perfect thing to cool you off on a hot day.
