Fantastic service and great local desserts. Small little seating area and limited options but worth the stop to try. Vegan options available. This was our second time coming and we got the brown butter chocolate chip cookie and peanut butter brownie. Last time we tried the regular brownie, which was good but very sweet/rich, and coconut ice cream that was good but nothing special. This time, the cookie was pretty average and the brownie was the same as before, very rich and dense/moist. We enjoyed them but weren’t blown away. 10.70 for all that plus a 1 s’more taffy thing. The cookie was pretty average and the brownies

Wonderful place. The employees were helpful in answering our questions and giving suggestions and the place had a classy Art Deco inspired look. It's not a cheap place to get dessert, but they have specialty items like dairy-free coconut ice cream (it was soooo good! We bought a carton to bring home) as well as vegan and gluten-free desserts. A definite must try in my opinion.

This evening was me and my loves first time coming into the Desert Collective! If I could give 10 stars I would! Customer Service: We were immediately greeted warmly by Taya! (Sorry if I’m spelling your name wrong ) Not only was she super easy to talk to, she explained everything super well and was genuinely one of the nicest individuals I’ve come across in the service industry! She not only was drop dead GORGEOUS! She was super sweet and made me feel right at home! Food: I have a dairy allergy and finding something this close to ice-cream!?? It is DIVINE! Just go in and grab yourself some! Vegan or not! This desert is special! Light! Creamy! Not too sweet! A very light flavor of coconut! * I’m not even a fan of coconut flavor but this was still good! ) It reminded me of a frozen custard, Rich and delicious! I got the Coconut Cream Original. Ambiance: Walking in the place is clean, darker hues and a lovely Nordic/ modern/ cozy establishment. The music was actually so nice! A softer lighter jazz (I’m sensitive to most music clashing in the background of places, especially at restaurants) The Desert Collective was one of my favorite places to visit to date! Thank you Taya! Aka Goddess! Aka Princess You made our first experience delightful! Looking forward to our next visit! Try something new and grab a Coconut Cream! You will not be disappointed!

Amazing gourmet desserts! Most of the desserts are dairy free and/or gluten free, but you'd never know it. They are absolutely decadent! My sister was almost in tears as she saw how many dairy free options she had, when she usually only finds one option or none at all. We tried the Chocolate Overload Cake, Lava Cake, and the Shaved Coconut Ice Cream. We split the ice cream and had our cakes a la mode, which was delicious. The ice cream portions were huge, and the cakes were small (which was perfect because they are so rich!) We also loved how this place is a collective of small businesses able to come together and sell their high quality goods in one place.

What a beautiful shop! The interior alone is worth the trip—it’s clear a lot of thought went into the design and decorating. The atmosphere is both stylish and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy some sweets. I was very pleased with their cookie, it was rather delicious! I’m already looking forward to going back and sampling all the other amazing treats they have to offer. Major props to The Dessert Collective for creating such a great experience!

We heard about this place and since we were going to be driving past the area on our way through UT decided to plan to be there shortly after they opened at 1 pm. So glad we did!! What a great concept to have various local dessert makers offer their yummy creations all in one spot. It’s a nice big place with plenty of tables and a modern way of placing your order at a kiosk. We tried the original flavor of Eleanor’s coconut cream (being dairy intolerant this was so great to have high quality options) as well as a piece of berry pie from Grapefruit & Thyme. They were both scrumptious! We’ll done and can’t wait until our next time through the area.

Oh WOW!!!! You have to try the super fresh, dairy, free, gluten-free, coconut, cream, ribbon, shaved ice cream. They mix up and freeze a brick of coconut cream, base ice cream, and then send it through the shaved ice machine, such that it comes out in ribbons. It’s best if you can give it a couple minutes to soften so that you aren’t tasting anything but soft creaminess. Right now the seasonal flavors have raspberry mixed in And blueberry mixed in as two separate seasonal flavors. The raspberry Berry knocked our socks off. We liked the blueberry also. Such an interesting concept for a restaurant. These are all local artists that bring in their desserts for sale. The coconut shaved cream does not feel like a bomb went off in your stomach when you’re finished eating. So fresh and so yummy. The better than sex cake looked amazing and Was also highly recommended by the staff. The beautiful human at the cash register was so helpful and full of good information and recommendations. Love the atmosphere. Highly recommend! I’m definitely going back for more raspberry shaved coconut cream.
