Beyond Sweet builds Instagrammable monster milkshakes

While a normal milkshake might be topped with a modest dollop of whipped cream and perhaps a daintily placed cherry, Beyond Shakes from Beyond Sweet in The Loop are Instagrammable monsters topped with baked goods that loom precariously over their cups and ooze enticingly down the sides. Perhaps the most impressive is the Chocoholic.

“This is for someone who really likes to indulge in chocolate,” said owner Dallas Holland with admirable understatement. “We decided to put in everything a person who loves chocolate might crave.”

And she means everything. This Frankenstein’s milkshake begins with a 16-ounce cup dipped in chocolate and coated with sprinkles. Then it’s filled with vanilla ice cream and fudge and topped with all manner of sweetness. The result – a confection of monumental proportions that’ll please even the most rapacious cocoa fanatic.
