The Mad Dipper - Handcrafted Artisan Ice Cream! in North Carolina

"OH MY GOSH YES!!!! I hesitantly ordered the pumpkin spice ice cream because, let's be honest, pumpkin spice ice cream always tastes synthetic and mildly gross. I took one bite of the pumpkin spice ice cream here and was low key freakin out because this is the pumpkin spice ice cream you dream about but had given up beliving existed. It was so so fresh and they were heavy handed on the spice which I lovedddd. The spices tasted fresh as well. Everything about it was perfection. I also ordered the chocolate raspberry truffle. Absolutely delicious. I highly recommend paring the pumpkin with the chocolate raspberry as they were amazing together! I need to also emphasis the texture of this ice cream. They have perfected it. It is this thick and creamy texture which most brands do not even come close to. Ice cream is usually a thinner consistency which is absolutely not as enjoyable to eat. This had more of a gelato consistency to it which was heavenly. Run, don't walk to this place. You will not be disappointed! Note to the owners: Can you PLEASE open up a location in the Raleigh area? We just don't have any places as good as this. I need this pumpkin ice cream every day"

"Wonderful ice cream with interesting flavors. The Belgian Dark Chocolate was rich and not overly sweet. The raspberry sauce is very tasty."

"Always a delight!! We enjoy this a few times a year!! Their flavors are WONDERFUL!!! It was the Belgium Dark Chocolate and Cup O'Joe for us this time!!! Perfect!!!"

"While on vacay, we went to both Ultimate locations. They don’t have an overwhelming amount of flavours, but we tried almost all of them and they were delicious. My favourite was the strawberry. Both locations have a small amount of outdoor seating."

"Very friendly staff (even recommended a nice Thai restaurant)…delicious ice cream!! Next time we’re in Asheville we will definitely visit again."

"My husband always wants ice cream so I was looking for a spot we hadn't tried in Asheville yet and stumbled upon this one. We shared a Banana Sundae with: - Brown Sugar Bacon Maple Ice Cream - Peach Ice Cream - Ultimate Chai Ice Cream - Raspberry Sauce - Marshmallow Fluff - Wet Walnuts - Whipped Cream & Cherry I love their unique selection of flavors. I'm not a huge fan of traditional ice cream flavors, so I enjoyed theirs. They rotate flavors and I really wanted to try their goat cheese one, but they didn't have it when we went. They do not skimp on the toppings on the sundae. I loved this. It really added to the ice cream. It's a bonus that they're open on Mondays because most dessert places in Asheville seem to be closed on Mondays. I'd definitely come back to try more flavors!"

"Absolutely had a wonderful experience here while visiting the area! I love me a strawberry shake and this place had one of the best. What's better is that they will make a shake from any flavor they have. Fresh in store made waffle cones, yum. The staff was very friendly and eager to help us figure out what flavor we wanted with samples. Would recommend and will return when in the area again."

"They'll make a shake out of any flavor. Add malt if you like. This might be obvious, but I would recommend one without nuts. They'll do waffle cones, regular cones, sundaes, you name it. All of it is delicious and priced well. There is some seating inside and a lovely outdoor area with a cool vibe. The people who serve ice cream here are really friendly and nonpretentious, and that's the cherry on top!"
