There have been a few newcomers to the treat scene in Richmond in the last month or so. We've rounded up four new dessert places worth checking out in Richmond.
Jack Frost Desserts
No matter the time of year, when it comes to sweet treats, "snow" is always a good thing. Jack Frost's motto is "we make snow fall." That's because they specialize in colourful and creative bowls of shaved ice, including a few you can get with "dipping dots" ice cream pellets, too. Also on the menu are cakes and cheesecake, and beautiful macarons.

Milkcow
Milkcow is all about natural milk soft serve, and at this Korean dessert cafe it comes swirled to perfect peaks in cups you can top with anything from honey drizzle to macarons to cookie crumbles to a giant tuft of sugary cotton candy.
