Best Brighton Dessert Shops

Desserts come in all shapes and sizes but we’ve all got a favourite sweet spot (or sweet tooth) for a pudding, ice creams or just an indulgent cake. Why not cut out the menu middleman and go straight to the best part of any meal: the dessert. Brighton has the best dessert shops to tantalise every taste bud. We know there’s always room for something sweet to round off any meal.

Four ice cream cones, each with a variety of flavors and toppings, are held in a metal stand. The ice cream flavors include a mix of colors such as white, pink, green, and purple, with some melting and dripping over the sides of the cones.

31 Ship Street and 6 Pool Valley, Brighton

This independent, award winning ice cream queen has been resident in Brighton since gelatiere, Seb Cole, set up shop in 2010.  It is now named in the top 10 gelato shops in the UK.  By its very nature, Boho Gelato defines ice cream making an artform, producing gelato to the traditional southern Italian method whipping less air into the product which makes it low fat, low sugar but full of deliciousness!

Boho’s eminently Instagram worthy, huge range of ice creams and desserts includes vegan and dairy free varieties using only the best quality ingredients.  Milk and cream are sourced locally and delivered daily, while their pistachios hail from Sicily and the alphonso mango from India.

There are over 500 ever changing flavours of ice cream on offer, ranging from irresistible treacle tart to on trend avocado, chocolate and cinnamon. There's even a Guinness flavoured option!  To keep the flavours fresh, twice a year, the business collaborates with other local food and drink companies to create 24 exciting and unique, signature ice cream flavours.

Desserts also include take home ice cream tubs and bespoke ice cream cakes using three flavours of gelato, sandwiched with layers of sponge or biscuit - 48 hours advance notice is required for the bespoke cakes.

So grab a cone, a tub and a cake fork (and loosen those waistbands)  - dessert is the main event at Boho.
