I was bummed when I came back to the "mainland" and haven't found any shaved ice that was close to what I had in Hawaii until now!! The owners are from Hawaii so they know how to make it right. The syrup, toppings and fruits are fresh and so yum! They even had homemade mochi. It was chewy and soft like how I like it. I tried the Coconut Dream without the coconut flakes and it was so yummy! Very refreshing. Follow them on IG to keep up where they'll be next!

And in some cases, folks would eat in their vehicle. That was the case when I went here for the 1st time. Fast forward to now, I happened to run into The SnoBall Shop when I picked up food from a food truck nearby. Let's see how everything went. After leaving a food truck right across the street, I headed here to order a snoball which I haven't had over a year. Just like the 1st time, you head to the front to place your order. Beforehand, I took a look at all the flavors available and chose white chocolate. I also chose marshmallow fluff for the topping. Overall, the snoball was good. The white chocolate flavor was present throughout and having the marshmallow fluff as a topping and in the middle helped with each serving. The snoball did melt due to the weather outside, but it was totally fine. Once again, the SnoBall Shop came through for yours truly. I'll definitely stop by the next time I'm in the area. Till next time :)

I opted for the kiddie size snowball which was a good portion. It includes 2 flavors, but I chose add-ons - whip cream and tajin and added vanilla ice cream at additional cost. I'm glad he informed me that due to the kiddie size, adding ice cream would increase the height and most likely have the snoball spill over. He offered to place the ice cream on the side to avoid spillage which I greatly appreciated. They have a large variety of flavors and the reason for the 3.5 stars was due to the taste. I had the passion fruit and tiger's blood. I think the tiger's blood is a sugar free flavor with splenda, so that may have been the reason why I wasn't loving it. I did finish the entire thing though. Haha.. I've just had better tasting at other local businesses. It's located in Primrose shopping center near the Holy Spirit Catholic Church. There's plenty of parking available and they have 3 vibrantly colored tables for seating. I'm sure their presence brings a lively, fun vibe to the shopping center that's in dire need of an update.

Unless you are lactose intolerant, get it stuffed (with two layers of vanilla custard), and honestly it's probably worth the discomfort to get it stuffed even if you are lactose intolerant!

Highly, highly recommended!

Let's see how the afternoon turned out. After having lunch elsewhere, we drove here for some much needed snoballs. Outside, it was pretty warm so we stayed in the car. Since our last visit, they updated the location. There are more benches and have umbrellas to cover them in case of shade and rain. Also, you order in the front and pick up on the side when it's ready. For my order, I selected the Coconut flavor in the kiddie's size. The flavor was just exactly a Coconut flavor and delivered. As usual, the ice tended to melt a little quick just as I mixed the ice around, but no change to the taste at all. Sophia enjoyed her selection too (forgot what she chose). Thank you again Pelican's for having the both of us satisfied. We'll definitely be back. Till next time :)

There are 100+ flavors to choose from & the sizes are so big! There's flavor in every bite, and the syrup is evenly distributed throughout the entirety of the cup. The staff is always friendly, and generous with their flavoring. This is a great place to stop by on a warm/hot day with seating outside. The only downside of this place is the parking. I wish that the parking lot was bigger or designed better, it does make it a bit limited for customers coming in and out. It's especially tricky for bigger vehicles maneuvering through.
