My BIL and sister hyped this place up so much that you know I had to come try it out for myself. It's located in a small strip area but upon walking inside, the interior was so cute! It had great lighting for dining (not too bright or too dim) and I loved the tables with all the resin decorations in them. The customer service was friendly and sweet! We decided to order the Strawberry shaved ice in the bear shape!
To my understanding, it's a vanilla flavored shaved ice with a strawberry syrup that you can pour on top, chocolate coated "eyes", fresh strawberry ears, strawberry coated "blushed cheeks," and whipped cream as the bear's mouth. At first, you might think it would be super sweet, but it was probably one of the lightest desserts I've ever had. The presentation was beary adorable!
The shaved ice melts in your mouth and has the aroma and taste of vanilla. It was very smooth on the palette and I loved the cooling aftertaste. The strawberry syrup was the star for sure! It was fruity, a little tart, fresh, and paired well with the vanilla shaved ice. The syrup itself didn't taste heavy or overly sweet. It was the perfect amount of sweetness. I loved the addition of the fresh strawberries and chocolate bits as it provided a textural contrast to the soft shaved ice. The whipped cream was so airy and light and mixed with the shaved ice, provided this milky, delicate, and creamy taste. The three of us shared the dessert and it was more than enough amongst us.
I will say that it can be a little messy to eat as once you start digging your spoons, the whipped cream and shaved ice starts falling off. The syrup also starts sliding down. I didn't mind it at all, but it's just a heads up for those who don't like fallen food around their area. They do present the dessert on a tray though, so it does help.
It was about $15 but worth the price as it fed the three of us and we didn't feel bloated afterwards either. Definitely a recommended place if you're craving something light, flavorful, and icy. They also have other items on their menu like fruit sandos (fruit and whipped cream filling on milk bread). I plan to come back here when I'm in the area again to try their other flavors. I saw flavors like matcha, mango, and Halloween specials (we went during spooky season).
