Do you have a sweet tooth?

Yeah, me too.

Cookies, cake, chocolate, if it's got sugar and it's in front of me, I'm devouring it.

All in moderation though, right? Sure.

It truly is a huge weakness of mine that is made even more difficult especially when we are surrounded by so many amazing places to grab a scoop or two.

When it comes to ice cream, the Jersey Shore has a lot of competition.

Whether it's inland, or at the beach, there are plenty of perfect parlors that will serve you a sundae just the way you like it.

Who would be crazy enough to try to compete in this ice cream landscape? Three words.

Fudgie. The. Whale.
