Sweet Summertime: Ice Cream in Gainesville, FL, and More!

If you’re anything like us, you’re on a constant quest for the best ice cream in Gainesville, FL. Fortunately, at Celebration Pointe, we don’t have to travel very far to conduct our highly scientific ice cream quality experiments. 

This summer is sweltering, so beat the heat with a sweet treat from one (or all!) of Celebration Pointe’s delicious dessert spots or restaurants. With the current deals and specials from Kilwins and Decadent, it almost doesn’t make sense not to taste these treats.

Visit Kilwin’s on Any Summer Day, But Especially on Waffle Cone Wednesdays

Satisfy your sweet tooth with traditional down-home confections fresh from the kitchen at Kilwins. They have desserts for everyone, from fudge (free samples!) and toffee to caramel apples and brittle. And their combination of premium ingredients and original recipes is truly unbeatable. Plus, when you take into account their friendly customer service and nostalgic atmosphere, this vintage confectionery offers one of Gainesville’s sweetest experiences.

And we haven’t even told you about Waffle Cone Wednesdays. Every hump day at Kilwins, you can buy one single scoop waffle cone and get a second one FREE. And there’s a bonus offer! If you share a photo with your ice cream on Facebook or Instagram and tag Celebration Pointe, you’ll be entered to win a $50 gift card to Palmetto Moon

Take Advantage of Sweet Deals at Decadent

Celebration Pointe has two heavy hitters when it comes to dessert. Your next post-dinner (or anytime!) outing needs to include a stop at Decadent, everyone’s favorite dessert and coffee bar. They feature high-quality, homemade treats, such as a signature brownie skillet and “drinking chocolate.” Speaking of drinking, they offer craft beer and dessert wine so you can pick the perfect pairing for each of their homemade treats.

For the purposes of our hopefully never-ending hunt for the best ice cream in Gainesville, FL, we have to throw Decadent’s gelato into the mix. There’s no room for technicalities in our city-wide search for the sweetest treat. The more the merrier!

But the real stars of the show at Decadent are the daily $5 dessert options. Every day of the week, you can choose from $5 cookie cups, 2-for-$5 cake pops or a $5 jumbo cookie sandwich. Don’t miss these deals! 

Celebrate with Sweets at Celebration Pointe

When summer temperatures peak, so does our desire for ice cream and other sweet treats. We’re pretty confident that the best ice cream in Gainesville, FL, is located somewhere in Celebration Pointe. Now we just need your help deciding who should wear the crown. 

Not craving ice cream? As you can see, there’s no shortage of other dessert types and sweet deals on our property, so stop by and celebrate with us this summer
