Food lovers of the Midwest, have we got a restaurant for you! Tucked away in the beautiful Amish countryside of Shipshewana, Indiana, is the Blue Gate Restaurant, an enormous complex of shopping, dining, theatre, and more. It's so much more than just a restaurant, but the restaurant aspect of things is easily one of the best parts. Better still: Blue Gate might just have the biggest dessert selection in Indiana, with pies, cookies, strudels, and tons more. If you're the owner of a sweet tooth, you're going to want to come out to Shipshewana and experience this incredible powerhouse of deliciousness. Check it out - and be sure to unbutton the top button on your pants, considering you'll need the extra room.

Once you've been to Blue Gate Restaurant, we're pretty sure you may never want to leave.

Between the seemingly endless things to do here - shopping, entertainment, food - it might be hard to know where to begin.

Well, we're here for a specific reason today: Blue Gate Restaurant just so happens to have one of the best dessert selections in Indiana.

Yes, the lunch and dinner menu is to die for, but we personally may or may not be hopelessly obsessed with sweets.

No matter what you love to eat for dessert, as long as it's baked, you'll likely find it here.

We probably can't even list all the options, but here are a few:

Pies. Jellies. Cookies.

Sweet breads. Cinnamon buns that are bigger than your head. Cakes. Cake rolls. Donuts. Cashew crunch. Chocolates. Candies... seriously, the list continues.

We honestly think you could just skip the dinner (as hard as that is considering how delicious everything served here is) and go straight for dessert.

Even if you're not huge on having a sweet tooth, we think you'll find something to fall in love with at Blue Gate. Take your time eating, but not too long...

...there just might be a show to catch here later!
