We stopped by Jake’s Ice Cream (which shares a great space with Yay Beignet) and it was the perfect break for a sweet treat.
The highlights were definitely the Chocolate Slap Yo Mama, Better Pecan, and the Caramel Praline. All three were incredibly creamy, fresh, and flavorful. I especially appreciated the "Better Pecan" twist on the classic!
One thing to note: the portion sizes are very generous. We ordered a three-scoop portion and it was plenty to share, as was the single scoop of Red Velvet.
The only downside was the Red Velvet Cake ice cream flavor. Unfortunately, it was pretty heavily iced over and seemed to have some freezer burn, so the texture was quite icy and we didn't enjoy that one.
As for the space, there are 3-4 tables inside, along with a few small round tables and picnic benches out front. It makes for a nice little spot to sit and enjoy your scoops.
Overall, it’s a solid 4-star spot for fresh, unique flavors and great value. I'd definitely come back for the Chocolate Slap Yo Mama!
