I was in the area with my brother and my niece. While my brother had to do something nearby, I saw…read morepeople on the street holding shaved ice. Looking at how delicious they were, I asked where they got this from. They pointed me to the corner and I went in with my niece. The space is rather small, but you don't really need to sit in the store to enjoy the amazing food. They have curated list of items or you can build your own. My niece wanted specific colors, so we opted for build your own style. We got mango ice cream at the bottom with strawberry and cotton candy syrup, topped with mochi and condensed milk. The shaved ice itself was finely grounded and easy to scoop. I didn't have any chunks of ice that made eating this unbearable. The syrups were delicious and sweet and worked well together. The condensed milk tied it all together and the mochi added a nice texture touch. The mango ice cream was also delicious. Overall, a very reasonably priced dessert. I look forward to coming back again.

The line never really died down and they kept putting out quality product. I highly recommend these folks for events if you want something unique.

They are one of the few shops left that make authentic Japanese mochi and manju…read more Their mochi is so soft and it will stay fresh for about 2 days at room temperature. I usually put it in the fridge if it'll be any longer, but the texture starts to get harder if it's over 2 days. My favorite flavor is the pink mochi with white lima bean paste. I wish they would make some mochi with fresh fruit that's the only recommendation I have! If you go during the obon festival, they also have delicious Hawaiian style shaved ice. My favorite flavor is milk and i like getting it with the vanilla ice cream and azuki beans. $6 + $1 per topping, cash only. I placed a pre-order for my mochi before the weekend by emailing shueidomanju@gmail.com, usually this is best if you want to make sure they don't sell out of the flavors you want. Service: I went during obon weekend so there was a long line. Last year they let people who pre-ordered skip the line and go straight up to pay and collect their order. Not this year, they made everyone stand in the same line and it took about 30 minutes. I don't think it's usually that busy, but this was a festival weekend. Ambiance: order at the counter and take it to go.

Our daughter was craving for Hawaiian shave ice after lunch one Saturday, and she found this place,…read morewhich was right across the street from the Branham Lane Sprouts, after a quick search online. Despite the unassuming storefront, the store had a chill Hawaiian vibe inside. We chatted with the lovely lady at the register. She emigrated from the Philippines and went to high school on Oahu. They made their own ice block for shave ice using the "pure water" they're selling. It's such a peace of mind knowing the source of the ice being used. There're so many flavors to choose from for the shave ice. It took our daughter a while to decide on a small one with blue raspberry, Japanese grape, and tigers blood. My husband and I shared a Halo Halo. There're a couple of tables with chairs/benches inside. With all the Hawaiian merchandise around us and the cool breeze from their fans, it felt like we're actually enjoying our treats in Hawaii. The nice lady told us "Halo Halo" meant "Mix Mix" literally, and that we're supposed to stir the dessert so that we could taste a bit of everything in a single bite. She's not wrong. It actually tasted better after mixing, and we got a nice surprise with each bite, be it the red beans, jelly beans, fruits or pudding. I also loved the overall ube flavor. Our daughter enjoyed her shave ice, especially the Japanese grape flavor. She was hoping for a finer shave texture, though. We're impressed by the constant stream of customers coming in to order their sweet treats or to fill their water bottles while we're there. It's always a sign of good quality with so many regulars!

Soyful Desserts looked promising, but unfortunately the experience fell flat. The prices were…read morealready on the high side, and to make matters worse, I was overcharged. When you're paying premium prices, you expect quality to match, but the desserts were underwhelming and not worth the cost. The pandan waffle was especially disappointing--it was undercooked, doughy, and lacked the texture you'd expect from a fresh waffle. Between the overcharging, poor quality, and underwhelming desserts, this place was a miss for me. There are plenty of better dessert spots in San Jose that offer better value and better flavors. I wouldn't recommend it.

They not only sell paletas but ice cream, mini pancakes, churros. Not feeling sweet they also have savory options like tamales. I tried 3 paletas: strawberry and cream, coconut and mamey. Overall the paletas were pretty soft, especially for the many and coconut one. The strawberry and cream was a bit harder since it had frozen strawberries in it. All the flavors were good but favorite was the coconut one.

I only tried a single pecan popsicle from this place, so I guess my review will be slightly…read morelimited. I came here on a cold day at the urging of a certain popsicle fanatic. The store is located in a strip mall near lots of taquerias, which to be honest I was more in the mood for (but sadly didn't get to go to). There's a lot of parking but the neighborhood certainly isn't upscale. Inside the store is like an explosion of colorful AI-generated fruits and desserts. It's bright, colorful, not quite eye searing but definitely eye-popping. I don't think I know any other stores that look like this. It's also extremely clean, almost sterile. I was here around 11 AM on a Sunday so maybe I was the first customer, I don't know. But it looked like it had just opened for business even though that's obviously not the case. They have a large selection of desserts here, not just popsicles, but we were here for popsicles so that's what we got. My dining companion got a strawberry milk popsicle and I got the aforementioned pecan popsicle. Judging by the speed at which the strawberry popsicle was consumed, it must have been good. My popsicle was not too sweet but did have a nice pecan-y flavor as well as many chunks of pecan halves. The texture was good, very smooth without any ice crystals. And it was served at the right temperature, not so cold it was impossible to eat, but not so warm it fell off the stick. The single person working here was very nice and quickly served us and gave us our popsicles. They nicely don't even ask for a tip, because the popsicles are already made and in plastic so it's not like you're getting any additional attention or work when eating them. I would say the popsicles are on the biggie side, like the equivalent of 1-2 scoops of ice cream. One is definitely enough, eating 2 would make you look a little gluttonous. I'll definitely return to try more flavors.
