Maple View Dairy is not that great, not dense or creamy enough, tastes more like what used to be called ice milk. Chick fil a, really? Henry's Gelato has too much of a mousse texture, and is super pricey. Haven't tried Sunni Skies, but if it's anything close to the places back home then I'll have to give it a try!

Maple View is GREAT! We have lived here for 4 months and I cannot even tell you how many times we have been there. We have even taken a tour of the farm. Their ice cream is made fresh from their own dairy cows. Delicious!
I really like Henry's Gelato, Maple View Farm and of course, the NCSU dairy ice cream at the state fair! Haven't tried Sunni Skies, I'll add it to my to do list!
I vaguely remember reading somewhere that NCSU is selling their ice cream somewhere other than the State Fair?
Fresh, on Glenwood Ave by Taverna Agora and Golden Corral, also sells Maple View Ice Cream. And a food science major from NC State also tells me the NC State Creamery is great as well!
I didn't realize NC State made ice cream! I'll have to try it and see if it even holds a candle to Penn State's creamery! I sure could go for a big scoop of Peachy Paterno right about now:-)
Hello. It's summer time and I'm pretty sure we all love ice cream! I have a hard time saying no to a bowl of ice cream or a waffle cone of soft serve with rainbow jimmys, but what I want is home made ice cream. No Goodberry or DQ or Cold Stone, I want mom & pop ice cream shop! I've been in NC for 2 years now and Kilwins & Sunset Slushy have been good...but I'm look for great!
Yet another vote for Sunni Skies! I'm actually looking forward to Father's Day this year, partly because I love my Dad, but also because I know he loves ice cream and is going to request a trip out there to celebrate. A win-win situation if there ever was one!!
