    Pickle dilly with Italian ice, strawberry and mango mixed with pickles and chamoy.
    Tori L.

    First time coming and 10/10! Customer service was great! Lots of selection and love how they have pictures of each item. Will be coming back!

    Extra sweet Toppings
    Ethan Z.

    Local Bandera Gem!!! My family and I came here on a Tuesday night around 7:30 pm. We parked in their small parking which is shared with other businesses but there were plenty of spot open. Walking inside the music is loud but plays good hip-hop/pop gems, probably to satisfy its younger clientele. Ice Ice baby serves mainly savory/spicy/sweet Mexican-inspired treats using natural fruit, Lucas, Tajín, chamoy, and other gummy/spicy toppings to enhance any treat for a customers personal preference. Their wall behind the creation station features images and names of their products offered which makes it very helpful for any customers unfamiliar with these types of treats. The two young ladies working were both friendly, efficient, and great multi taskers. They explained options very well, and very considerate when helping my older family make their choices of sweets. We decided to try both sweet and savory treats to share amongst my family so we got to try as much as we could. The corn in a cup was by far my favorite choice as I ordered it spicy with Taki-dust and had lots of other chili pepper spice and good creamy mayo for a delicious taste and amazing texture. Yum!! The Italian ice was very smooth with great fruit flavor that was not an overpowering sweetness. The pineapple treat (piñanada) was also a very fresh/sweet/spicy choice with lots of sliced pineapple, good amounts of Lucas and chamoy drizzled across the top, we added some spicy fruit bands for more chewy texture. The price after tax and tip were not too bad, I think the presentation, serving amounts, and fresh ingredients were all very much worth the value. The service was very good, and the spot was well maintained. My family all loved the food and said they'd want to come back again. Great spot for a sweet/spicy fruit tooth!

    Ice Ice Baby has any type of treat sweet or sour or both combined if you'd like. We like to go for fruit cups mixed white chamoy and Lucas seasoning. We also like their hot snacks like corn in a cup, hot Cheetos with melted gooey cheese and their nachos. Service is excellent, all the employees are attentive, fast and friendly. Be prepared to wait in line and hopefully you can get a table to enjoy your snacks inside or we silly take them home since we're not too far. They have bench seats with picnic tables inside.

    Mangonada and brownie sundae

    We got the mangonada with the pickle wrapped in fruit loops and the brownie sundae. Both were extremely good and one thing we noticed was that there were no messes and the environment was extremely clean. Staff was attentive and the owner which seemed like she was training new staff members was extremely kind to them. Props to the owner and the trainees! Keep up the good work!

    Long line but it went by quick, asked for a "customized" Dilly Bear for my wife, she said it tasted so good, loved it. Super chill place, we will be back soon.

    Really my favorite snack spot! I'll never not leave a review because they deserve the recognition. Service is always great and affordable prices for my bfs milkshakes too!

    elote and fruit
    Zarina B.

    Good snack spot! Came during an off season so fruit wasn't that sweet, but that's not their fault. Mango ice didn't really taste like mango but still satisfying and refreshing.

    Sweet fresaDia- layers of coconut ice cream, homemade sweet cream, strawberry & Italian shaved ice.

    Tbh I don't know how more people don't know about ice ice baby and their snack stand... it's by far the best place to get Snacks (specifically Tex-Mex snacks) in San Antonio. No one puts together mangonadas, sandianadas, sweet Sandias, and fresas con crema like them. They take so much time and pride when working with your order. So picture perfect and presentable. They also put small half paper plates around the side of your desserts if they have chucks of fruits etc., that way everything stays intact. I hate when my Chamoy or Italian ice starts dripping down and causes a big mess (common problem with preparations of other snack stands) the plates ensures everything is sturdy and in place. The owner is SO awesome, she was patient and helped me weed out what I wanted when everything sounds good lol. Ice Ice Baby also has mini versions of any "sweet" or "nada" dessert which is highly uncommon and makes me visit their location over any other snack stands hand down. Normally I don't want anything big, just something small for my craving and the minis are perfect! The last time I went in they had on The Incredibles and I sat down to watch along with a few other guests (all adults actually lol). So yea, if you haven't visited them, please go and support their small business. They're the best!

    Great customer service ! Service with a smile ! Nice, clean, cool dessert spot :)! Good prices and friendly faces ! Will definitely be coming back !

    Medium Sweet Fresanada
    Caitie A.

    Don't overlook this unassuming spot within a strip mall. Ice Ice Baby is a must stop for tasty, refreshing treats, during these hot San Antonio summers. I stopped in with a friend upon her recommendation. I normally order Mangonadas but today I was wanting to switch it up. I opted, instead, for a Sweet Fresanada. It is layers of strawberry ice (I wouldn't say ice cream because it's more like a fresh-fruit sherbet consistency) alternating with cream & whipped cream, topped with fresh strawberries. Delicious! I also selected a large cucumber lime Agua Fresca. I was surprised to see that they make them fresh upon order. It was SO good and definitely refreshing. They have many flavors or agua frescas, so they're sure to have something you might fancy. My friend was feeling something a little less sweet, so she opted for a Mangonada & added chopped dill pickles on-top. She called this concoction a Mangodilly. They have a Pickledilly on the menu but it involves pickle ice instead of scoops of mango ice. She said it was very good and that the slices of mango on top were very tender and sweet. They had a pretty good selection of different options and even have blue bell ice cream. There are definitely some other choices I would like to go back and try. There are also a few hot food options, such as, spicy Cheetos with nacho cheese & nachos, if you're not in an ice cream mode. The prices are fair & you can select from tiny to large, depending on how big of a portion you would like. Definitely worth a try. I will, for sure, be back!

    How do you know it's good ? If you remember it when you went to the restroom. That means it left a memory forever. Amazing spot

    Fresanada and mangonada
    Troy L.

    April 2020 Review We were able to get out of the house for a bit and were in the mood for a little Fiesta themed snack. We had heard good things about Ice Ice Baby and decided to give it a try. They did have a bit of a line when we arrived (mostly outside since only a few were allowed inside at a time) but it moved quickly. I ordered a fresanada with spicy straps and my wife got a mangonada with the spicy straps as well. Both of our choices were delicious! Perfect day for this treat! So glad that we were able to get out and support a local business!

    Hot Cheetos and pickles!
    Ari R.

    Go here! So many flavors, and inexpensive! It's a cute, clean, small shop with many options. I've been to places where they sell you a fancy $15 milkshake chock full of sugar and cavities that weren't as good as the sundaes at this location, which are almost half the price. Your fancy shake will look great on Insta, but I buy food for my face not for the Gram. A friend ordered the pickles and hot Cheetos for a super sour and spicy treat, I split a Sugar Monster with my boyfriend. It was three scoops of ice cream topped with strawberries, marshmallows, chocolate syrup, sandwich cookies, and a small powdered donut. It's served in a plastic cup and some paper plates inside the top to get more room. Not Instagram worthy, but so delicious. The big dessert was under $10. We both were full by the end. Highly recommended.

The smiling young woman working behind the ice cream counter offered to give tastes, but I had already figured out which flavors I wanted. I chose two scoops in a cup, one of Cappucino Chip and the other Turtle Cheesecake. They have several tables to sit at, some along a hallway and more in a back room. I took a seat and was in awe of the huge scoops given. The Cappuccino Chip had a mild flavor (I prefer it stronger) but a fair number of tiny chocolate chips. The Turtle Cheesecake had an excellent cheesecake flavor with swirls of caramel, praline pecans, and caramel-filled mini turtles. I'm usually not fond of nuts in my ice cream but I actually enjoyed the pralines. In my humble opinion, there were too few turtles. But I still loved it. If you're in the mood for a cold, creamy treat while visiting the Alamo, you'll find this to be the perfect place to visit.

It actually took my wife about ten minutes just to complete the payment for a couple of ice creams, which felt longer than the ice cream itself took to melt. What made it even more uncomfortable was watching how she interacted with other employees. It wasn't just unprofessional--it was the kind of scene you'd expect in a low-budget psychological thriller where you start wondering if someone should call for backup. So while the ice cream itself and the front-line staff were great, the overall experience was overshadowed by the atmosphere at the register. Small, crowded, and unkind is not a combination that brings us back. We'll pass next time.
