I wish I was here long enough to try all the flavors! My only regret is that I didn't find this on the first day of our trip!Google review by Mia Hinckley, 5 stars: The best ice cream in Orange. Creamy, fresh and so tasty. I am not an ice cream fan but my husband is so we popped in for a treat. The staff was friendly and let us sample some flavors. Every flavor we sampled was delicious. If ice cream is not your thing, try one of their crafted Popsicles. They look like art. Fresh fruit inside of them. I cannot say enough good things about this place.
