Helados Bon, C por A
This ice cream is the best (in our opinion). Made with the fruits of the island the flavors have just the right sweetness and creaminess. On a hot day it is sooo refreshing.

The ice cream made in Dominican Republic can't be beat! You can get such fresh tropical fruit flavors that somehow have a complete different flavor that what you might be accustomed to enjoying. Get this luscious confection on a cone or in a cup with a little plastic spoon. Tastes so good, so refreshing after baking in the hot Caribbean sun.
*Make sure you try the Habijuelas con Dulce Ice cream sold only around Easter time. It is wonderful.

The sweet candies are called Dulces. Many have the texture of fudge and can be flavored with fruits such as pineapple/ piña, mango, coconut/coco and guava among the many. There is a very tasty peanut type brittle here. These candies can be purchased almost anyplace including the Colmados and Supermarkets. The candy stores are the best places to buy the dulces. This way you know they are made fresh.
