Wow!! The Dessert Heaven, a mind blowing outlet which offers a range of phenomenal ice creams. Their food too is great. The juhu outlet is exceptional. Service is decent. Try their unicorn ice cream. Also try Midas touch, but it’s costly though. But you should visit this place once.

"Fascinating ice-creams and desserts"
Some dessert chains are just so good at creativity and marketing; Huber and Holly is one of them. They have 4 outlets in Mumbai and a few more in other states. We went to the Juhu one to check out the ambience and because it was close to Juhu beach. The location is apt for such outlets which can give them a lot of visibility and footfalls. This outlet is very hygienic, and the lights are bright which is in support of the feel of the place. Such atmosphere can attract kids and youth a lot which are potential customers.
Drinks/Beverages
Huber and holly is known for a few items and one of them is their tornado shakes. They have 7 varieties in them. We selected the one with a lot of berries and it is called BERRY GO'ROUND. This is a shake which is slightly purple in appearance and topped with beautifully decorated whip cream and sweet toppings. I could see some berries skin in the shake but no actual berries so either the shake was well blended or they used extracts or syrups. The shake is a little less sweet in taste, hence I feel they don't use sweeteners which is good. I would love to taste a few others.
Food
We wanted to have the footlong fries which is another speciality here, but it was not available at the day, so we chose the CHEESY JALAPENO. It is crispy triangle tortilla chips topped with cheesy sauce and cut chopped onion, tomato and Jalapenos. It is served in a small sized pizza pan. It was good in taste, nothing extra ordinary about them but can't complain considering the price.
Desserts
They have a few varieties in the ice-cream pastries section which is my favorite section at this outlet. We tried three of them, but I am going to talk about just two. The first one is TRUFFLE-OH! It is a almost oval shaped ice-cream pastry with a shiny black-goldenish texture topped with chocolate dressing and edible H&H chocolate coin. In addition to this already beautiful looking dessert, a few truffle-like toppings are placed surrounding the dessert at the bottom- these tasted a lot like hazelnut. All this is a served on a black rectangle coaster. An elegant, delicious and visually appealing dessert.
Second best is the LITTLE BIRTHDAY CAKE. This is a milk-based ice-cream dessert hence white in appearance mixed with colorful sprinkles, square in shape, topped with a ping cream flower and red H&H edible coin. This beautiful portion is enhanced by the long milky flakes like support. In the deeper sections of this dessert you have small portions of strawberry and butter scotch. This can readily be a little birthday cake for anyone. I enjoyed the creamy taste.
Another item ordered was Strawberry bombshell. They are known for one of costliest ice cream in Mumbai which is a cone with 17 ingredients covered with 24 karat gold skin. It is worth 1000 bucks and it is called Mighty midas but it is worth and also it's younger cousin called Unicone which is worth 500 bucks is also a dream of a dessert. Worth trying these which I will at my next Huber and Holly visit. They have some real drool worthy and eye catchy items. A must try if you are anywhere around.

2. Strawberry Valentine
3. Thin Crust BBQ Paneer Pizza
4. Rich Chocolate Shake
5. Raspberry Icecream Cheesecake
The Pizza was as good as and other Pizza served from a reputed high end QSR joint. The icecream creations were lovely from the mix to the presentation and also the texture of the ice creams was more like fine yogurt based icecreams. They also serve tubs and you could also have this delivered home via Zomato delivery. My new destination for dessert cravings…!!
