Do you prefer a creamy ice cream, decadent sundae, tangy sorbet or creative Popsicle?

Lucky for you, all of these can be found around Atlanta.

With 53 percent of the votes, it's fair to say that Butter & Cream Ice Cream in Decatur has Atlanta's favorite frozen treats and ice cream in town. As a small batch ice cream purveyor, they feature homemade ice cream, sorbet and sweet treats all made from scratch with the freshest of ingredients. Is your mouth watering yet? It should be.

In a strong second place is Jeni's Splendid Ice Creamwhich took Atlanta by the taste buds and never looked back. Jeni's is just as much about flavor as community and cultivating happiness among staff and customers. You can enjoy your flavorful ice cream knowing that it was made with 100 percent love.
