If you’re looking for a sweet treat in the Fountain Park area, head to Heavenly Desserts. Here you’ll find all the signature touches that regulars know and love: the plush, comfy sofas, floral arrangements and utterly decadent desserts. There’s a huge range of choice, including crepes, waffles, cakes, brownies and sundaes. It’s a great spot for a quick bite, a long catch-up over coffee or a birthday celebration. A second menu filled with gluten-free and vegan options ensures no one has to miss out on the fun. Unlike many other branches, this site has double-height floor-to-ceiling windows and outdoor seating, perfect for soaking up the somewhat infrequent Scottish sun.
While the dessert selection is truly impressive, the drinks options aren’t to be sniffed at. Staples like coffee and tea are on the menu, along with soft drinks and juice, but where’s the fun in that? Instead, try one of Heavenly Desserts’ indulgent milkshakes, with flavours including chai, mint chocolate chip, Lotus Biscoff and cookie blast. Elsewhere you’ll find tropical smoothies, mocktails such as virgin mojitos and iced coffees too. The hot chocolates are also suped-up, with flavours like orange or praline.
Start off with a chocolate shot or selection of mochi before moving on to the main event. There are plenty of more familiar options like tiramisu, profiteroles, tarte au citron and cheesecake, as well as some more adventurous creations. These include the likes of Nutella waffles, Lotus Biscoff crepes and even chocolate chip cookie dough. You can also build your own by choosing a base, sauce, topping and ice cream flavour. Add up to four scoops to your crazy creation - we won’t judge! If you’re into your melted chocolate, go for the fondue. It’s perfect for sharing between two or four, with plenty of nice things to dip in the molten deliciousness.
