Sweet Temptations

Great ice cream, have spent probably thousands of dollars here over the years, and am the FIRST to recommended their ice cream cakes to anyone who will listen to me go on about them, but will avoid this location from now on. The lady refused to give us two flavors with a single, and went on about how she was going to "talk to her staff" when I mentioned I'd ordered that way before. She said a "single" means only ONE flavor, and TWO flavors has always been a double. At other locations you can get half and half, I don't see why it's such a big deal. There's no need to give your staff a talking to. It's not like we are asking for double the amount of ice cream by doing a single with 2 flavors. Their staff is so nice and hard working, now I'm just hoping she's not yelling at them about this, as ice cream is not that serious. Do order an ice cream cake for your next birthday or event, you won't regret it.

Edit: I think it may be a "small" at the other locations" and not a "single" like I had thought was at all locations. My bad on that. I do still think it's stupid you can't do half/half on a single but can on a single unless I'm completely missing something

Sweet Temptations is a definitely stop on the map when visiting Grand Haven! It's open year-round (unlike the other family-run locations), which means you never have to stifle your homemade fudge, ice cream, or popcorn craving! Yay :) They also do a fantastic job putting together baskets, and make the best gifts for family, friends, colleagues, really anyone! Be sure to check them out here, or in the summer any of their other locations for a tasty treat!

I love Sweet Temptations! I am allergic to both cows milk (the protein) and soy and they have a nondairy option that I can eat! Harbor Island fudge nondairy is my fav & they also usually have some of their flavors in pints to take home too. Most other places only offer sorbet or soy based nondairy options and it's so nice to have something that is more like icecream! I drive 30 mins just to get their nondairy icecream. They don't offer it in the winter though so eat up in the summer or order a giant tub ahead of time to take home for the winter. They also own the one downtown GH (not sure if they have nondairy icecream, it's been a while since I've been to this one), The front porch in Spring lake & scoops (best sorbet I've ever had here too). I know the front porch also has their nondairy icecream too.

I used to live across from this place and I loved it! They make their own ice cream in so many wonderful flavors. One of my favorites was malt. I'd always buy a quart or two of different flavors. I wish they sold this grocery stores.

The candy shop are has a large selection of many types of candies and old school candy we all used to love when we were kids and when our parents were kids.

The chocolate covered anything from this place makes great gifts. Nuts, pretzels, popcorn, Oreos....strawberries. Every town needs a place like this.

They have a drive through too!

I purchased both fudge and ice cream from Sweet Temptations. The ice cream was good. Unfortunately, the fudge was subpar for the following reasons. I purchased the chocolate fudge with walnuts. I thought the sample tasted okay, but when I returned home to Detroit and are more after dinner I realized that the flavor was off because the walnuts were stale. The stale walnuts ruined the flavor of the chocolate fudge, which was smooth and creamy. I also sampled the Snickers flavored fudge, which tasted great but was too gritty with sugar crystals so I opted not purchase any of that flavor. It's a shame that their product quality suffers from stale walnuts, which could have been easily avoided by tasting the components before making the final product. This reflects poorly upon the owner. On a positive note, the place was clean, the employees were polite, and I would return again for ice cream. If I purchase fudge from them in the future I will be more critical in my taste testing, especially if products like nuts are incorporated into the fudge. I hope the owner reads this review and takes corrective action.

Yum! Great creamy ice cream and super friendly employees! Brownie Batter is my favorite
