Start with one of our signature sundaes or build a simple three part combination: a creamy ice cream base, one bold sauce, and one crunchy topping. We craft chunky, swirly ice cream and theatrical presentation so that a single scoop shows how texture, flavor and garnish work together.
Why start with a signature sundae
We recommend beginning your sundae exploration by choosing a signature option. A signature sundae shows how we balance chunky mix ins, swirls of sauce and finishing textures. It is the fastest way to taste our approach to texture and showmanship without needing to make every choice yourself.
If you prefer to customize, you can use that signature as a guideline. Think in layers: pick an ice cream base, add a pronounced sauce, and finish with a crunchy or chewy topping.
How to choose a base that defines the sundae
The ice cream base sets the sundae tone. Our flavors are super premium, chunky and swirly, inspired by American Revolution names and playful combinations. For a familiar start, choose a creamy vanilla or chocolate base. For a bolder first try, pick a limited run flavor with mix ins that show our flavor development work.
When you order, look for words that hint at texture and chunks. Those are what make the mouthfeel lively and memorable.
Pick one sauce and one texture for balance
A single pronounced sauce adds contrast and ties the layers together. We use thick sauces that hold their ribbon through chunky ice cream so each spoonful tastes layered. For contrast, add one crunchy element like toasted nuts or crisp cookie crumbles, or a chewy element like candied fruit.

Toppings and mix ins we suggest for first time visitors
- Chunky chocolate or cookie pieces for bold texture
- Thick caramel or hot fudge for warming sweetness
- Toasted nuts for a nutty crunch and aroma
- Fresh fruit or fruit compote to cut richness with acidity
- Whipped cream and a single decorative garnish for theatrical finish
Each choice changes how the sundae eats, so start with one dominant contrast and add a smaller secondary element.
What to expect in the shop and how we serve sundaes
We pair creative flavor work with playful, immersive service. Staff in period inspired costumes present sundaes with theatrical touches and tidy plating. Presentation matters to us, so our approach is covered in more detail on our Presentation and Plating page.
We are based in Draper Utah and welcome families, foodies and groups who want a festive dessert experience. If you are visiting from nearby neighborhoods, check our Draper location page to plan your trip.
