Treat Dreams Spotlight: Ferndale, Michigan

Ferndale is a city that appreciates creativity, and Treat Dreams fits right in. This artisan ice cream shop has been turning out handcrafted small-batch flavors that push past the ordinary ever since it opened, and it has developed a loyal following across Southeast Michigan for doing exactly that.

Located at 522 W Nine Mile Rd in Ferndale, Treat Dreams produces ice cream made from scratch with quality ingredients. The flavor menu rotates seasonally and features combinations that reward curiosity: brown butter bourbon pecan, Mexican hot chocolate, blueberry lavender, mango habanero, and dozens of others that give regulars a reason to keep coming back to see what is new.

Vegan and dairy-free options are always available, made with the same care and creativity as the dairy-based flavors. Nobody gets left out of the fun. Sundaes, shakes, floats, and seasonal specialties round out the menu.

The shop has a warm, neighborhood feel that makes it the kind of place people return to on purpose, not just when they happen to be passing by. Ice cream this good tends to do that.

Treat Dreams also has a location in Grosse Pointe. Visit at treatdreams.com.
