The only thing better than a cold scoop of ice cream on a hot day is a cold scoop of ice cream sandwiched between two delicious cookies. Thankfully, local cookie company Biscettes now offers ice cream sandwiches in flavours like chocolate chipper, cookies and cream, tropical mango or Neapolitan.

Greedy Donut may be known for its doughnuts, but at its new downtown pop-up, it’s also offering a special cool treat. Along with fluffy, filled doughnuts, this pop-up location offers milk or pistachio soft serve creations, plus you can add a mango, matcha, strawberry, chocolate or caramel drizzle. It’s the perfect way to cool down on a midday break or on your way home from the office.
