Vampire Penguin
1220 Ben Sawyer Boulevard Ste U, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464
If you are looking for ice cream in Mount Pleasant or just have a sweet tooth, Vampire Penguin might be the place to visit. Vampire Penguin offers a cool twist on dessert with its signature shaved snow creations. Shaved snow is different from traditional shaved ice because it is not made by pouring flavored syrup over plain ice. Instead, the flavor is already frozen into the snow before it is shaved, giving each bite a soft, fluffy texture that feels closer to ice cream but lighter and more refreshing.
Located in the Sea Island Shopping Center, Vampire Penguin is a fun stop for families, dessert lovers and visitors looking for something cold, creamy and colorful after the beach, dinner or a day exploring. Choose from creative menu favorites or build their own shaved snow dessert with different flavors, toppings and drizzles.
