Sweet Republic - UPDATE

I found out about Sweet Republic solely via Twitter. After seeing their tweets about ice cream flavors such as Sweet Corn and Jalapeno Avocado, I decided that I had to give it a shot. How can one not be curious about corn ice cream?!

I finally got the chance yesterday and was not disappointed. I enjoyed samples of several flavors including Lavendar (very refreshing), Salted Butter Caramel Swirl (YUM - and their most popular flavor), Peaberry Espresso, and Sweet Corn. They rotate their flavors about every two weeks and use strictly fresh local ingredients. Other seasonal flavors they did not have but I can't wait to try are Chocolate Guinness, Eggnog, and Pumpkin Spice.

Since I couldn't decide on just 1 flavor, I ended up getting a scoop of Sweet Corn and a scoop of Salted Butter Caramel. I topped it off with Salted Butter Caramel sauce, whipped cream, and a homemade marshmallow that they toasted to perfection. MMMmmmmmmmm!

I highly recommend this place - only suggest that you tell me when you go so I can go with you! They are located on the northwest corner of 92nd Street and Shea in Scottsdale.
UPDATE: Tara and I went again less than a week after trip 1. Once again, they did not disappoint. Tara got Mint Chocolate and Rocky Road and I got Bananas Foster and Salted Butter Caramel. We were both in heaven!!! Thanks Tara for calling me just like I asked :) Sooooo glad you made the trip!!
