- Lamonte Gelato - 1010 N. 12th Ave., Suite 133, Pensacola, FL 32501
For authentic Italian gelato, head to Lamonte Gelato, where the owners create the sweet after being inspired by their travels to Italy.

You'll be able to taste the freshness in all their flavors, which are made onsite. Cool off with Passionfruit & Mango Sorbet, Belgian Chocolate, or Olive Oil & Fig, which is made with Black Mission figs and cold-pressed Spanish extra-virgin olive oil.
- Vampire Penguin - Cordova Mall, 5100 N. 9th Ave., Pensacola, FL 32503
If your idea of shaved snow is shaved ice with some flavored syrup poured on top, your mind—and taste buds—will be blown by the offerings at Vampire Penguin. The treat shop uses finely shaved, flavored ice to create huge, tasty gourmet snow treats loaded with toppings. Flavors are fun and creative and include options such as the Yabba Dabba Doo (made with vanilla snow, Fruity Pebbles, sweet cream, strawberry sauce, whipped cream, and kiwi boba) and Mexican Candy (with mango snow, fresh watermelon, chamoy sauce, Tajin, caramel sauce, and mango boba).

Whatever your preference—fresh fruit, nuts, chocolates, gummies, and more—Wild Honey has you covered!
