"At both the Little Havana and Pinecrest locations, seasonal mango ice cream and sorbet are highlighted as top-tier summer offerings." - Allison Ramirez
"Growing up in Miami means crumbling Maria cookies over peaks of ice cream and mixing in cubes of guava paste when it softens. Maybe an abuelo slips cafecito into their grandkid’s bowls while no one’s looking. You can find professional versions of all these creations at Azucar, a classic Miami ice cream shop on Calle Ocho. They’ve got an Abuela Maria flavor that mixes guava, cream cheese, and Maria cookies into vanilla ice cream. But there’s more than just the nostalgic stuff. There’s a plátano maduro flavor, banana and red hots, sweet potato and ancho chile, and a classic mantecado for traditionalists. Its location in Little Havana makes it the perfect cultural ambassador for this only-in-Miami operation. photo credit: Emily Schindler" - Virginia Otazo
"Ice cream cakes are a lost art, but not at Azucar. This Calle Ocho scoop shop turned one of its most popular flavors into an impressive frozen cake. The Abuela Maria ice cream cake has ice cream packed with guava, cream cheese, and maria cookies. It’s cute and tasty. But if you're closer to a Salt & Straw, we also strongly endorse their ice cream cake too. It’s just called “the cake,” and it’s a rectangular slab of blackberry jam ice cream and birthday cake." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"At Azucar Ice Cream Company, guests will find ice cream flavors such as flan, passion fruit, and mamey — a serious ode to the Miami neighborhood it is located in. Stop in here for a treat to enjoy while strolling along Calle Ocho and taking in the sights and sounds of Little Havana." - Amber Love Bond
"A true Miami ice cream shop. It serves many inventive flavors inspired by the city and its Cuban heritage, like its Abuela Maria ice cream, made with crushed-up Maria cookies, and its cafe con leche flavor, with Cuban coffee and Oreos — along with many, many others." - Olee Fowler
