Here is the inside scoop on the ice cream shops in Round Rock, Texas. Enjoy!

Paleteria La Selva
Our latest obsession is homemade ice cream, and we found another spot in Round Rock that churns their ice cream in-house! This spot is tucked away, but when you find it, you step into a scrumptious safari with ice cream galore. And fear not dairy-free friends, they have options like sorbets for you to enjoy. Get ready to be transported to flavor paradise at Paleteria La Selva!
Amy’s Ice Cream
Today’s forecast is sunny, with a chance of sprinkles. Ice cream sprinkles, that is! Add a little pizzazz to your day with a stop at Amy’s Ice Cream. Amy’s was established in Austin, Texas, in 1984 and has expanded to Houston, San Antonio, and now Round Rock! We’re so excited to have Amy’s in our own backyard because the handcrafted Artisan ice cream is exquisite. They have 350+ flavors and world-famous Mexican Vanilla Ice Cream that you must try!
N2 Cream Co
N2 Creamery uses science to put a cool twist on their frozen delights! They infuse nitrogen into some of their creations, leaving wisps of nitrogen swirling around your treat. N2 is in the Premium outlets, so after you shop, visit this spot for a scoop. It will be the cherry on top of your day!
Cece’s Froyo
Before you split town, make sure to get a irresistable banana split from Cece”s Froyo. This family-owned frozen yogurt and ice cream shop serves up some frosty treats all year long. They have velvet- smooth froyo and heavenly Blue Bell Ice Cream to satisfy your craving!
Sweet Charlie’s
They roll with things at Sweet Charlies and have a novel way of preparing their ice cream! It starts from a liquid cream poured onto a cold surface and mixed with hand-selected ingredients. Once the consistency is just right, they roll it into a masterpiece with expert precision. You can even order your ice cream to be served in a Round Rock Donut. It’s a match made in dessert heaven! We’re drooling just thinking about it.
Cold Stone Creamery
Cold Stone has locations sprinkled across America, but we wanted to include it on our list because they make some heavenly concoctions, and their ice cream is pure bliss! We dream about the Apple Pie A LA Cold Stone and sweet waffle cones. They also have special collaborations like their glamourous Barbie edition ice cream with pink cotton candy ice cream, party sprinkles, pie crust, and whipped topping. Get ready to indulge in frozen ecstasy!
Creamistry
They are the scientist of sweetness at Creamistry! They put on their lab coats and flash-freeze individual ice creams at -321°F using liquid nitrogen! This unique freezing process ensures that the ice cream is ultra-luscious and decadent. They have a plethora of flavors, including vegan plant base options and fruit sorbets. We have our eye on the Cookie Monster and Nutella flavor for our next visit!
Andy’s Frozen Custard
We have a soft spot for the soft serve at Andy’s! They serve custard, which is ice cream with egg yolk mixed in, making it incredibly rich and creamy. At Andy’s, they take their sundae-making seriously and have perfected the ideal pecan-to-sauce ratio. If you’re feeling adventurous, try their concrete creations with seasonal flavors like Key Lime Pie. Yum!
B-Lux Grill & Bar
And last but certainly not least is this Texas-sized milkshake from B-Lux in Kalahari Resorts and Conventions! This milkshake sensation deserves an honorable mention because it is truly extravagant. They have over-the-top creations like the donut shake with a Round Rock Donut, chocolate sauce, Nutella, and sprinkles. They didn’t forget about the adults; they have hard shakes that taste amazing!
