Wickenburg: Chaparral Homemade Ice Cream

Chaparral is a Wickenburg institution that dates back three decades. If you haven't been there recently, plan a visit. In August 2009, Tony and Pam Rovida took over a fading business and injected it with a fresh energy. The building was completely remodeled and the menu expanded. Everything is made from scratch, including the ice cream and the luxurious sauces that add extra zing to sundaes. Choose from 24 flavors at $3.50 for a single scoop or $4.50 for a double. Chocoholics will be wowed by the sassy richness of chocolate-brownie crunch. Close your eyes while downing the luscious lemon and you'll swear you're eating lemon cream pie. If you require more sustenance, there's a full menu of items, ranging from individual pizzas to hearty sandwiches. Just be sure to save room for dessert.
