Houni's is built around Italian ice, the fruit-forward, water-based cousin of ice cream that stays lighter and brighter on a warm Upstate afternoon. That is the real draw here, and it is what sets the shop apart from a standard scoop counter.
The counter does not stop at Italian ice, though. It also runs to ice cream, dessert-shop treats, and confections, so a group that cannot settle on one craving can still walk out happy with something cold and sweet in hand.
