Three local businesses are generating some exciting buzz.

A downtown favorite, YoYums is a great place to try eight interchanging flavors of frozen yogurt, 40 different toppings, tie-dye parties, and don’t forget about YoYums Reads days for children. Looking to try something new? Stop in and create your own frozen masterpiece with their special topping of the month!
“This business is so unique to me because it is truly all about the customer experience and what they enjoy. Frozen yogurt has a ‘you rule’ aspect where the customer gets to choose the exact serving size and flavor combinations. We have customers that get the same thing every time and others that never repeat a combination. Either way, I know I will get to see something new every day.”

Family-owned and operated, Barberic Creations offers high-quality, decorated sugar cookies and other small treats that can make your events a little extra special. With a wide variety of designs, these cookies are perfect for every occasion.
“We are a husband-and-wife duo that started making cookies in 2015 for one of our son’s birthdays and just never stopped! We’ve always enjoyed baking, and cookies just became another avenue to express our creativity. We love being able to offer high-quality, decorated cookies and treats in the place where we put down our roots and started our own family.”
