Grand Lakes is a beautiful town in the Rocky Mountain National Park. Many of the places close down during the winter. When spring rolls around, the town starts opening up to cabin rentals, tours, and of course ice cream shops. When I visited Ceaira’s Sweet Shop was open once again for business.
The shop originally opened in 1953. Over the years it has had many different owners but it has endured time and continues to offer guests homemade ice creams.
They offer a ton of unique flavors.
It is a small place, that has walk up windows for ordering. The staff is nice and friendly.
I ordered the Butter Pecan ice cream. My grandfather loved butter pecan and I remember eating it with him in the summer. So, I thought this flavor would bring back some wonderful memories. And it certainly did. The ice cream was extremely creamy. There were nice large pecans in each spoonful of ice cream. It was very satisfying.
The sweet shop had a constant line. Visitors ordered all kinds of treats. They even offered homemade ice cream sandwiches. If you are looking for some great ice cream, check out Ceaira’s Sweet Shop at www.sweetgrandlake.com
Enjoy!
