We&#8217;ve been craving a triple-scoop waffle cone since day one and we finally made it over to the Farm for some proper over-indulgence.

Yes, it&#8217;s true. And yes, we will be back. (And yes, they taste just as good as the ones at Starbucks ;))<br \/>\nNext on the list, crepes. Sweet, divine, out-of-this-universe crepes. Tucked away on The Farm Road is a little crepe stand serving a perfect variety of sweet and savory options. We chose the Red White &amp; Blue, a.k.a strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream galore, with a little powdered sugar in the mix.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.fairplex.com\/blog\/fairblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/crepes.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7443\" title=\"crepes\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.fairplex.com\/blog\/fairblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/crepes-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"388\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nOn the way back to our office we HAD to sample some of these little guys:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.fairplex.com\/blog\/fairblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/sorbet.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-7446 alignright\" title=\"sorbet\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.fairplex.com\/blog\/fairblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/sorbet-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>Sorbet is probably the &#8220;healthiest&#8221; dessert we have to offer at the Fair (besides Terri&#8217;s Berries) and it&#8217;s the perfect refreshment for a warm Friday night. Flavors: coconut, mango, pineapple, strawberry, orange and lemon.<br \/>\nAfter loading up on ice cream and whipped cream, the tart lemon flavors were the perfect contrast for our palates.<br \/>\nWe haven&#8217;t event hit the carnival food yet, but we are determined to try the churro gelato and get our cotton candy fix first thing tomorrow (because those are totally acceptable breakfast foods, right?)<br \/>\nThat wraps up our Fair Food Friday for the week.<br \/>\nWhat are your favorite desserts at LACF?
