Wow! Wow flavor!!

The blueberry and passion fruit swirl is the best tasting ice cream I’ve ever had. I came to the Big Island expecting some world class experiences but did not expect to find the best ice cream. That was a treat on top of a treat. I will definitely be back

Pros: Unique flavors , Vegan , Friendly staff

Yummmm

This place is a treasure! I had the cheesecake sundae with pink aloha/blueberry ube swirl, ube cookie crumbles sprinkles. Large was just under $10. This was heavenly, decadent and a real party in my mouth. Please do yourself a favor and eat this, vegan or not, you will leave satisfied. I was sort of disappointed they were stocked out of chocolate l, vanilla and cones at the time I came in, around 1pm. However, whatever is available will be amazing I promise you!

Pros: Vegan

Cons: No chocolate, vanilla, or cones available

Best Ice Cream Ever!

This is the richest most flavorful ice cream I’ve ever had. The milk shakes are delicious; the sundaes scrumptious! The chocolate and Pink Aloha are to die for!

Pros: All vegan, Delicious, Nice portions

Yummy vegan ice cream to top off the meal from Journeys cafe next door

My daughter had the chocolate ice cream that was made from macadamias. It was so large, my husband and I had to massively help her finish it. It came in a waffle cone which my daughter appreciated since she doesn’t get to have it often (not often found in vegan version). She opted for peanut sprinkles and dark chocolate drizzle. An epic dessert!

A must.

The house-made soft serve is out of this world.

Many options to choose from, but they are often out of some flavors.

You can get a cup, cone, or Hurricane (a blended drink).

Small is around $4.50 and regular $6.50

Pros: Delicious

Cons: Out of some flavors

Creamy & delicious

A spoon later, I was absolutely astonished that the soft serve was vegan! It was so creamy and tasted lovely. We got the blueberry ube hurricane with papaya, and I loved that it was not cloyingly sweet.
They have some great toppings as well. I got the coconut caramel on mine, and it was divine!

I gave them 4 stars only because they ran out of vanilla and chocolate. If there are only 4 flavors in the menu, running out of 2 is a no-no in my opinion!

Pros: Bright and lovely ambience, Outdoor seating, Right next to a vegan restaurant

AMAZING!!

We had two types of soft serves in cones. 1) chocolate, brownie chunks, & coconut caramel drizzle. 2) Vanilla, cookie dough chunks, & coconut caramel drizzle. Two more days here means two more visits here. This place is not to be missed, no matter what.

Blizzard!

Vanilla blizzard uplifted my spirits. The Macnut milk base for their ice cream , the passion fruit drizzle on whipped cream...very satisfying.
Their soft serve is good but not as satisfying as compared to a blizzard.

Pros: Delicious, Macnut milk

Cons: Expensive, Basic flavors, chocolate and vanilla.

Whipped cream & caramel, omg

Loved the option for a child’s sized sundae as I just wanted a taste. The macadamia-based soft serve was flavorful & creamy, and the whipped cream was super fluffy and rich; the coconut milk caramel was everyone’s favorite.
