Mattie Wilson: Macarons take the place of cupcakes or cookies in the ice cream sandwich at MILK. This typically delicate French treat is super-sized and ice cream replaces the conventional light meringue filling. Read more.
Isabel L: Blue velvet cake was so amazing! Make sure u try the red velvet cupcake. It has an interesting texture and flavor. Coffee toffee ice cream was creamy and delicious. Didn't like the chocolate madeline.
