This Shop Has The Best Ice Cream In GA: List

DECATUR, GA — As summer starts to sizzle in Georgia, what better way to beat the hot temperatures and cool down than with a cold scoop of delicious ice cream?

There's no shortage of spots from which ice cream lovers can choose. But where should you go if you're looking for the absolute best ice cream the state offers?

A new list compiled by Reader's Digest believes those looking for the perfect scoop should head to Butter and Cream in Decatur.

"This Decatur shop seeks to give a modern twist to classic ice cream mainstays. Butter and Cream bakes their add-ins, along with making their small-batch ice cream, right on-site. The charming shop also apparently smells like cookies when you open the door, due to the cookie ice-cream sandwiches made there. Run, don’t walk," Reader's Digest said.

Located at 416 Church St., Butter and Cream has an additional store in Norcross and is planning to open a location in Duluth.

The Decatur eatery serves up flavors of brown sugar, honey, strawberry, vanilla, coffee, chocolate, butter pecan, mint chocolate chip and milk and cream cheese in their ice creams.

Seasonal flavors include island rum coconut, Mimi's chocolate cake, blueberry cheesecake, rocky road, chocolate in my peanut, butterscotch blondie and horchata.

Chocolate chip cookies and "pup cups" are also offered at the shop.

Butter and Cream dishes out diverse toppings such as boubon spiced peanuts, toffee cone bits, handcrafted peanut butter cups, vegan chocolate chip cookie pieces and gummy worms.

Hours of operation: noon-10 p.m. Sunday-Thursday and noon-11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
