It just expanded its menu of sweet treats., as well as new desserts such as ice cream sandwiches made with cream buns, similar to brioche. Stax will soon add waffle and cupcake ice cream sandwiches to the menu. Stax desserts are made with the finest ingredients and all cookies and cream buns are baked fresh in-house daily.
Stax offers a dozen flavors of cookies daily, including snickerdoodle, red velvet with white chocolate chips, black and white, and white chocolate macadamia.

Any of the ice cream sandwiches can be rolled in a variety of toppings, such as sprinkles, candy pieces, nuts or cookie crumbles, for an extra charge.
