I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
Outlandish, outrageous, over-the-top…these words exemplify the sweet treats found at one exceptional dessert shop in Arizona. With two locations, one inside Jake’s Unlimited in Mesa and a new place in Chandler, Jake’s Sweet Shoppe is the place to go for some of the most indulgent desserts in the state. So, bring your sweet tooth to this dessert shop — you’re gonna need it!
If you visit a Jake's Sweet Shoppe location, you're in for a treat -- literally! This is one place that creates some of the most indulgent desserts you could ever imagine.
There are two Jake's Sweet Shoppe locations. One is inside Jake's Unlimited, an entertainment venue located at 1830 E Baseline Rd. in Mesa, AZ. There's also a newer location at 58 W Buffalo St. in Chandler, AZ.
One of the most unique desserts here at Jake's Sweet Shoppe has to be the Unicorn Cotton Candy Tacos.
With a cotton candy "taco shell" filled with cotton candy ice cream and topped with whipped cream, Fruity Pebbles, M&Ms, a chocolate drizzle, and cherries, this is more than enough to share...or not. It's your choice!
There are also shakes including a Featured Shake of the Month. These shakes are more than just ice cream...just look at the desserts on top of this dessert!
This large-scale chocolate chip cookie is warmed and topped with vanilla ice cream, chocolate and caramel drizzles, whipped cream, sprinkles, and a maraschino cherry.
You also can't go wrong with a Big Brownie. Like the Colossal Cookie, this brownie treat comes in two sizes and has the same toppings. Either one is a delicious treat!
If you like to photograph your food (confession time -- I do!), these desserts are so pretty and absolutely worth posting on your social media accounts!
(Pictured here are the Oreo Dream Shake, the Vanilla-be-Mine Shake, and the Cookie D'oh! Shake.)
