Nothing is sweeter than enjoying a delicious treat with the kiddos! We've put together an awesome list of some local places where you can grab a cupcake, cookie, cone or even your favorite candy. No matter what you decide to try, we think you'll love 'em all! Not afraid of the cold? Check out some fave spots to chill and enjoy some gelato, fro-yo, shaved ice and more around Johnson County (and a few places beyond). Editor's Note: When in doubt, call ahead to ensure you're aware of any service changes.
