| - My wife (then fiancee) and I first found Sweet Republic through Phoenix Magazine... I took the day off for my birthday and we decided to hit up a buncha places on their best-of list... How little did we know what we were in store for.
First off, everything here is made here, no funny business. From the cookies to the candy parts of the ice cream, the girls behind Sweet Republic WORK HARD to produce the best tasting ice cream I've ever had, not just in the valley but in my lifetime, and Bon Appetit magazine agrees! And speaking of the valley, they also keep everything local, so the ice cream not only tastes good, it feels good too.
On to the ice cream: it's so, SO good. It's creamy, it's flavorful, it's delicious. They are always coming up with different flavors for both the ice creams and sorbets, and it seems like every time I visit there is something new to try out. There are some childhood favorites like rocky road, but there are fantastic originals like the salted butter caramel, the Mayan chocolate, the I love bacon (sssh... It's a secret. but candied bacon? in my ice cream? it's more likely than you think) and the PURPLE RAIN! There are also ice cream sandwiches, amazing shakes, terrific ice cream pies, and floats... the list goes on.
There is real passion at play here, you can sense it... Do yourself a favor and try it out for yourself!
