ATLANTA, GA — Ice cream is just a good idea any time, but summer's warmth makes it a perfect treat on a muggy, scorching day. If you are craving a rich, cool, creamy ice cream cone, the food website The Daily Meal has just released its picks of the Best Ice Cream Stand in Every State.

The best place for ice cream in the Peach State is Morelli's Gourmet Ice Cream, 749 Moreland Ave. SE, in Atlanta.

Here's how The Daily Meal folks describe the range of yummy ice cream purveyors nationwide: "There is no wrong season to eat ice cream, but it really hits the spot in summer. Everything's better with ice cream, especially if you add sprinkles, whipped cream and a cherry on top. ... Whether you’re in Texas or Maine, Alaska or Wisconsin, we have found ice creamstands, shops, creameries, dairy farms and more that are scooping up the creamiest, tastiest homemade ice cream — no matter the weather."

Morelli's Gourmet Ice Cream says on its website, "Super duper, ultra premium, densely textured, homemade ice cream is what Morelli's makes. We create unique and exotic flavors, blending gourmet ingredients, with fun and unlimited imagination. Just one bite and you'll taste the creamy difference that makes us Atlanta's FAVORITE ice cream."

Some of its most popular ice cream flavors are butter pecan, Krispy Kreamier, salted caramel, strawberry rosewater, dark chocolate chili, coconut jalapeno, PBJ sandwich, blueberry corncake, dulce de leche, and coffee fudge brownie.

Here's how the Daily Meal editors describe Morelli's Gourmet Ice Cream: "Salted caramel is one of best-sellers at Morelli’s in Atlanta, but this Georgia shop also offers off-the-beaten-path flavors like jalapeño coconut and ginger lavender. Check out their Krispy Kreamier flavor — it’s made with real pieces of Krispy Kreme doughnuts."
