A little from THIS… to THAT. 🥹🍦❤️

Funny how some things change… and some things stay exactly the same.

From a little boy with custard all over his face… to that same boy now standing behind the counter, serving up your favorite scoops of delicious ice cream in Grand Marais! ❤️

Throw in a guinea pig named Superior, a pretty sweet scooping team, some big dreams, and a WHOLE lot of hard work… and, here we are! 🐹🍦

What started as a love for ice cream (custard too! 🤭) and bringing people together has become something pretty special here in our little Lake Superior town.

And while the days can be crazy, the to-do lists never seem to end, and we’re still figuring things out as we go…

Sometimes, on a random fall Saturday morning, it’s worth looking back at where you started, how far you’ve come, and all the possibilities still ahead. 🥹🍂

Because at the end of the day, it’s never been just ice cream. It’s about the people, the memories, and the little moments in between. ❤️

We can’t wait for another beautiful fall weekend in Grand Marais and all the sweet memories still to be made with YOU!

Happy fall Saturday from your favorite Scoop Troop! 🍨🍂❤️

No big announcement today… (although, we DO have some sweet surprises coming soon! 👀🤭)

For today, it’s just a muffin & some subs looking entirely too good not to make the camera roll. 😂🍂

Fresh bakery goodies for the sweet tooth. 🧁

Fresh-made Grab & Go subs for the “I actually need lunch” crowd. 🥪

And with this beautiful October weather hanging on… scooping season just keeps getting a little sweeter. ☀️🍂

So today, grab the sub.
Grab the muffin.
And definitely grab the scoop.

Life is all about balance, right? 😎😂

Open today - 8AM - 8PM !

It’s National Cinnamon Roll Day… 🤎

And around here, we take that responsibility pretty seriously. ❤️

Butter. Cinnamon. Fresh dough. Lots of frosting.

Made fresh, made with love, and absolutely worth celebrating. 😍

Happy National Cinnamon Roll Day from Superior Scoops!

Come grab one while they last. 🤎🍂

🍂 It’s Saturday morning at Superior Scoops… and apparently we’ve decided you should start thinking about dessert before breakfast is even over. 🤭🍨

The bakery case is filling up with fresh-made goodness… 🤎

Scoops of creamy goodness will kick-off soon …

And our Ice Cream Nachos are still here proving that sometimes sharing is (technically) optional. 🫠😂

Whether you’re out enjoying a beautiful October day in Grand Marais, chasing fall colors 🍂, or just looking for something delicious—

Come hungry. ❤️

🍂 HELLO, OCTOBER! 🍂

With a new month comes a little change to our hours! (No need to panic, though… it's ever so slight!! 😉🍁)

October 1–16:

🍦 Monday — CLOSED
🍂 Tuesday–Sunday — 8 AM–8 PM

We’re still here SIX days a week, serving up fresh bakery goodies, grab-and-go breakfasts and subs, fall drinks, and, of course, plenty of creamy scoops! 🥐🥪☕️🍨

Our hours will change again after October 16 as we settle a little further into our fall/winter season here in the U.P., so stay tuned for that update. ❤️

Until then… enjoy October in Grand Marais with us! 🍁🌊…

It's truly the most ‘Superior’ time... 🔥

Words from our favorite Superior Scoops baker ❤️👇

About 11 years ago, I worked for the Stonehouse Bakery and Cafe, eventually renamed The Breakwall Bakery and Cafe. I'd never been in a big kitchen before. I only baked at home. But I knew if I didn't try, I would kick myself for the rest of my life. I got hired. I was the only baker 6 days a week. With a few people jumping in once in awhile.

We started with pre-made items that I baked and what I considered a very boring cinnamon roll.
I didn't sign up for that. I wanted to bake from scratch, and I had a great cinnamon roll recipe!
We got a new manager, I told him I have a great cinnamon roll recipe. I made a batch. He got rid of the other ones😂

Eventually, I baked everything( except croissants and puff pastry) from scratch. Breads, hamburger buns, hot dog buns, pies, cakes, cookies, sticky buns etc, and of course cinnamon rolls.

That season from May through October, I baked about 300 sticky buns and 5,500 cinnamon rolls(my recipe, not the boring one)
No joke. I still have my numbers. I laminated them.😂

Almost SIX THOUSAND buns. By my self. ALL by myself! With MY recipe!

And then I got "sick". I ended up with a pituitary tumor that dropped my weight to 115 #. I looked dead. I couldn't keep up with the pace even if I wanted to.

I went back to Bayshore. Started feeling better. Baked for the farmers market, and have done baking on the side ever since.

This spring I was determined to find a spot of my own. A real kitchen, a real Bakery all my own. I looked around, ran numbers and sat on that thought and dreamed.
A short while later, within a month I'd say, Jenny Irvine approached me. We talked and came up with a plan.

Almost 6,000 cinnamon rolls in 2015 has been the driving force behind my dream of owning a bakery and now HERE I AM!

People comment I look happier. I am. A LOT. I'm doing what actually makes me happy.
The worst part of this job is dishes😂 I hate washing dishes. 🤪
Anyway, there's my story.
Thanks for reading and supporting me! I appreciate it!
💕
Megan

PS. We plan on being open year round. Shortened hours when it's slow. Closed when it's dead. Although, I will still take orders any time, even if we aren't technically open. A baker's gotta bake!
