If you’re looking for a good way to spend a warm June Saturday, these are the most Instagrammable desserts in Collin County. Because if summer isn’t a good excuse to go wild on sugar, I don’t know what is.
Sweet Daze
Sweet Daze is one of the best reasons to drive to Richardson, if only for the “designer donuts.” If that isn’t your thing, there’s also ice cream, lemonade, coffee and tea. But who can turn down a unicorn donut?

Nerdvana Spirits

Sprinkles
Cheat a little at Sprinkles. While their ice cream is amazing, their cupcakes are a little unreal–and adorable too.

10 ⁰F ROLLING ICE CREAM
Rolled ice cream is a delicious frozen treat inspired by the street food scene of Thailand. The technique causes the ice cream to produce smaller ice molecules, resulting in a smoother and richer finish.
