Something sweet!

In August, an “over-the-top” sweet shop will be opening its doors in downtown Berkley. Bombshell Treat Bar, the popular ice cream pop-up, will be opening its first brick and mortar storefront at 2688 Coolidge Highway. Bombshell is founded and operated by Birmingham natives Jill and Matt Kasle. Pastry Chef Tori Parnell (previously of Parc) is helming the culinary operations. Customers can expect to find Bombshell’s signature chocolate dipped ice cream bars, as well as specialty ice cream cakes and pints, floats, treats, candies and more. Bombshell came to the scene in 2020, just months after the start of the pandemic, with a focus on contactless delivery. Bombshell has made appearances throughout Metro Detroit, serving treats at the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, Ford Piquette Avenue Plant, University of Michigan Football Stadium and Neiman Marcus, to name just a few. “Bombshell Treat Bar was born out of a desire to put more joy into the world. Getting started during the pandemic was a real challenge, but we’re proud that we were able to push through and continue to grow. Berkley is going to be very special, and we can’t wait to open our doors,” said owner Jill Kasle. 2688 Coolidge Highway, Berkley bombshelltreatbar.com
