Fantasticks Rio - Gaithersburg

I've been going to the other place since then. I was worried it wouldn't live up to the hype, but my friends and I all agreed it was worth it. I think gelato is probably a better option for a simple treat, but the custom-made popsicles are definitely a unique experience for a special occasion! They are incredibly sweet and taste great! I was really hoping the rose-flavored one would be available, but I guess they're all out. I took off a star because they are quite pricey. Otherwise, I would visit more often if it was more affordable! Instead, it'll be more of a rare treat for a special occasion!

I visited Fantasticks and ordered the Parfait-Popsicle, adding white chocolate and strawberry drizzle, along with three different toppings. The popsicle was delicious and refreshing, especially on such a hot day! There's often a line at the gelato shop, but you can skip the wait and order a popsicle instead. It was a wonderful experience to enjoy a picnic on a beautiful sunny day!

This is a fantastic spot for dessert with a wide variety of options to choose from. I've tried it before and loved it. They offer both milk-based and non-dairy gelato, along with plenty of topping choices. Please note that they don't serve ice cream. You must try the tiramisu, available in a cup or as a pop—it's delicious! The interior seating is cozy, and the entrance is located on the north side. It's also wheelchair accessible. I will definitely return and recommend this place to others!

I have a rose bud to try the place. about five dollars for a sugar stick. eh, could have been cheaper. I am usually a sucker for floral taste desserts. I really liked this taste. from any reason it smells like I had eaten borox? reminded me of homemade ant trap that I could not finish. idk, if this is a one-time event, but it was really not good. the rose taste was not present. it was only sugar cream with the aftertaste of Borax-idk. Maybe they've messed up this stack. I love floral aromas and read good reviews about the rose taste, but that was it. the consistency of the popsicle was good tho and the texture is beautiful and creamy. I am also glad that they are running with small container trays. Perhaps their other aromes will be better. the friend has the Tiramisu-Gelato. it was alr melting and had a slightly too sweet aftertaste for me. melted super fast. all in all it wasn't the best experience. I could try another taste next time, give them another chance. a rehearsal of mango purple was pretty good.

I've been hearing a lot about Fantasticks recently and I finally had a chance to check it out. I definitely get the hype. There are two sections: the first has plenty of unique gelato flavors to get a scoop or two, then there's the DIY ice cream bar section. The gentleman behind the counter let me know that I can try any of the gelato flavors and I tried the brownie caramel brittle. It was so good. I decided to get a scoop to go. But...I couldn't leave without making an ice cream bar right? I decided to make my own. It was sooooo good. The shop itself is very bright and has a very cute decor and a small section for seating. I went when there was a heatwave outside so it may have been better to eat inside the shop. I'm already planning a trip back to take my daughter. I know she will enjoy it as much as I did.
