Oh Sweets!

I have a problem.

I am literally addicted to sugar. I love cake, cookies, cupcakes, cheesecake, snack cakes, ice cream. Literally everything.

So I really wanted to take the time to share with you all the spots in Charlotte, NC that satisfies my sweet tooth. 

Now, I like to consider myself a sweets connoisseur. I will try all types of desserts. Hot. Cold. Chocolate. Vanilla. Butter Pecan. You name it, I'm likely to try it.  Here is a list of some of my favorite spots. ( I have more, but I'll ease you into it.)

1. BW SWEETS (Black-owned)

2. Jazzy Cheesecakes (Black-owned)

3. Two Scoops Creamery

913 Central Ave, Charlotte, NC 28204

Now I'm a veteran in the Ice Cream game, so I can handle two scoops, but if you are timid, you can start off with just one scoop. But its called Two Scoops, so if you don't get two, then head back to a chain ice cream spot. Respectfully. 

My favorite flavors are, "Cookie Monster" , "Batter Up", and anything with cereal in it. 

4. Corners that sell Candy Apples

Now before you get defensive, don't. Now I can't give you a website or an address, but I was on Beatties Ford road. This was the best candy apple I've ever had. I ate the whole thing and I've never done that before. Better than anything you would get at the Fair, or make on your own. It was delicious.

5. Pop Bar (Black-owned)

www.pop-bar.com/charlotte

3123 N Davidson St #102b, Charlotte, NC 28205

Half dipped white chocolate and coconut shavings, half dip milk chocolate & caramel popcorn.

You're welcome.
