American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.

Based on the reviews, we decided to visit Melt Away Ice Cream in Alpharetta after dinner at a Thai restaurant. Unfortunately, our experience didn’t live up to the hype. We sampled a couple of flavors, including Roasted Pistachio and a Miso-flavored ice cream. Both were surprisingly salty far beyond the subtle salty note that can sometimes enhance ice cream. The saltiness completely overpowered the flavors for us and made them difficult to enjoy. We didn’t try the cookies, so I can’t comment on those, but based on the ice cream alone, this wouldn’t be a place I’d recommend for dessert. I’m honestly surprised by all the five-star reviews. Everyone’s taste is different, of course, but for us, this experience was disappointing. I would rate it 2 out of 5 stars.

This is the best ice cream in metro Atlanta. They have unique flavors like miso brittle and traditional favorites like strawberry and cookies and cream loaded with real strawberries and cookies. The ice cream is not ultra sweet like Jenny’s but is a flavor of fireworks in your mouth. 10x better than Jenny’s unique flavors and 10x better than traditional flavors found at Brusters. Must have.

Through a recommendation from a friend, we visited Meltaway.. ice cream was absolutely divine!! They had me sampling almost all their flavors… my absolute favorite was the earl grey and apricots. They had a miso batter almond butter (if I am remembering the name correctly) that was unique and nothing like what I had imagined… that’s what I’ll be getting on our next visit. No artificial flavors or colors and truly creamy ice cream with amazing and unique flavors… I totally recommend anyone who’s got a β€œgreat palate”!! And then there were their cookies… also amazing!! Going back for the coconut caramel cookie🀩 In addition.. the owners were friendly and had tons of recommendations. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to let our pup try the vanilla ice cream (don’t worry.. it was only a tablespoon amount)!!!

The most delicious gelato my husband and I have ever had, and we’ve had gelato across Europe. The flavors change weekly and the offerings are both unique and delicious. The ingredients are high quality, the service is excellent, the premise is clean… what’s not to love? Would highly recommend a stop at Meltaway.

This is the best ice cream I’ve had in Alpharetta Johns Creek area. All homemade ice cream and soft delicious cookies made fresh on premises. Owners are wonderful people very dedicated to their craft. My family and neighborhood friends are very glad to have a such a nice place to relax and enjoy a great dessert right near our community.
