They even sold candy which I kept staring at while I waited in line. Also it is cash only so definitely keep that in mind if you're like me and never carry cash on hand. There were so many flavors to choose from and we were able to sample a few. The lady helping us was really nice and was able to recommend some fan favorites and limited seasonal flavors! I ended up going with one of the fan favorites, which was the cookie monster. I just love cookies and cream in general so this was a safe option for me. I loved the different cookie bits that they had in there! It was also really fun because of how blue it was and stained my entire mouth. Luckily I had nowhere important to be after so maybe keep that in mind as well... Overall a great experience and I get why people waited in line for it!

Recently I went to an Ice cream shop that sells their ice cream and they totally marked up the price. They wouldn't be able to pack ice cream to go. It was only limited pre-packed flavors. So I had to come back to the original store to get the flavors I wanted! Wow! They didn't disappoint! They let us sample as many ice cream flavors as we wanted! My mom was so happy to try many flavors, I was worried if they would get impatient. The young lady that helped us was super patient and nice!!! And later another young boy helped also was also super nice!! We to total got 5 pints to go, but I only took pictures of mine. The We got coffee and cookies, 2xcoconut pineapple, banana, and dark chocolate. I already have rocky road at home from the other marked up store. At Fosselman's, you can see they made sure it was fully packed that the lid almost couldn't cover it. Love this historic ice cream shop that still charge a reasonable price and having affordable ice cream!! The ambience is very cute with lots of candies for sale. We got some too! Very happy with our experience again! Love Fosselman's ice cream!!

Even though it was busy when we arrived, the line moved quickly and the staff kept everything running smoothly. The moment we walked in, the smell of fresh waffles and sweet ice cream filled the whole shop and instantly made us excited to order. Since we had all just eaten dinner, we figured we'd play it safe and order the small sizes... big mistake! Their "small" portions are HUGE and definitely big enough to share. We were honestly surprised when our desserts came out. Everything looked amazing and tasted even better -- fresh, warm, sweet, and perfectly satisfying without being overly heavy. The service was fast, the desserts were delicious, and the overall atmosphere made it such a fun family stop. We'll absolutely be coming back again, and next time we know to share!

Amazing taiyaki spot!…read more There's not too many in the SGV and they offer them at such an affordable price with tons of filling options. We also got a plain milk soft serve and it was probably one of the creamiest milks soft serve we've ever had. The self serve toppings bar is also a nice touch. The taiyaki came out pretty quick as well and they are located right next to golden deli, perfect to spot to grab some dessert after a warm bowl of pho.

This is in the same tiny plaza as Golden Deli and Bopomofo, so parking can be tough at peak dinner time. The good: the taiyaki texture was nice and crunchy. The ice cream was smooth and not icy. The price is good for amount you get. The bad: the store was extremely cramped and hot. It's a very tiny shop so easily felt packed inside. I was annoyed when they called my order but I was struggling to get through the shop to get my order. By that time the employee had walked away. I was annoyed because when she came back she completely ignored me and handed someone else their order and walked away. I don't understand why they keep the completed orders way behind the counter if they don't even verify the correct person is picking up... after being skipped over twice I finally cut in and interrupted the other employee for my order and she was like oh... sorry it's melted. Like yeah it's been sitting there and I didn't want to go into the employee area to get it! That was really irritating. The ube flavor was bland. It tasted like milk, I did not get any ube flavor. The custard in the taiyaki was just okay. The worst part was that the taiyaki had a really off putting taste on the outside... almost like the aftertaste of margarine or something, it bothered me. Overall the flavor and service was lacking and the experience inside was not good. I was not impressed by any aspect and would not recommend this place unless you were already dining in this plaza and wanted to just walk over.

I first discovered this place through a Yelp Elite event and just recently finally visited myself…read moreand I'm obsessed, especially on a hot day! Heads up though that their last day is April 16th and they're going to be moving to Alhambra but it won't open for a month or two as they still need to move in and set up. I've tried their premium coconut shake and that's soooo yummy and you can't go wrong with the most simple one! It's not too sweet either which is really great. I've also tried the mango coconut shake and that threw me off at first bc it only tasted like a mango shake bc that was concentrated all the way at the bottom. I didn't taste the coconut until later and then it got good. I've also tried their kaya toast with butter and that's pretty tasty as well. I got my mom the coconut calamansi and she loved it. It's usually pretty quiet and empty when I come during the day but on a Friday night, I did see more people hanging out there. I do love that there is seating for people to hang out. Staff are pretty quiet and keep to themselves as they have two digital order stations. So if you have questions, you have to kind of call them to the front and ask. Sad they'll be on a little hiatus as they transition from San Gabriel to Alhambra but 10/10 recommend this place especially as an alternative to boba haha

The mangoes they have here are amazing. Mango heaven. I be craving this place its crazy. There are so many things on the menu so theres always something new to try. If you like asian flavors this is the spot to go. Tofu dessert, grass jelly, lychee, mango, durian, taro, this is the asian dessert heaven. FOOD: Price: Pretty good ~$5-10 per dessert Mango Sweet Rolls - $7.25 (5/5) Yo this is so good. The lil jelly paper over the mango & whip cream taste so good in my mouth. It taste like what it looks like so yummy. Strawberry Waffle w/ Strawberry Ice Cream - $10.99 (3/5) There was a lot for how much it is. I like brick toast but its not the best ive tried at all. It was almost overly sweet with a lot of syrup. Couldnt finish!! It was pretty good but toast coulda been made better ok tbh i came here so many times i dont even remember what i got. But whenever I do, it is a surprise. Choose out of the many menu options to your hearts desire. Only comment ill say is that sometimes the combos may not be that sweet so read thru the ingredients to make sure it aligns with your taste buds. Half of the items are slush and half pudding. I love pudding VIBES: The seating inside is plenty, parking outside is plenty. I ONLY ever come here at night and yes it may be a lil sketchy but its not sketchy. It was a little hard to find this place but its chill. Staff was very nice although there may be a language barrier sometimes. Food came out really fast always. Great place come here al the tiem recommend :)

After getting some nearby spa services, I thought I would close out the evening with a sweet treat…read more They have a huge menu with large variety of sweet and savory options. They close at 12 am, and we walked in around 11:30 pm. We tried to order a few of their fried items and were told that the oil was shut down already. That was a major bummer. I ordered the Mango Snow Sweet Tofu Pudding. I'm not sure if there was any "snow" or not since I couldn't tell when I opened it up at our hotel. Maybe it melted already? It was disappointing nonetheless. The egg waffle took the longest to make and it came out only okay. It was bit too soft, and that could be because we took it to go and it was steaming up. The pomelo was sour in our other dessert, so that wasn't great. Service - When I walked in, there was a girl on the phone at the register. It was a personal call and she stayed on the phone the whole time we were ordering. She barely acknowledged us and it seemed like we were inconveniencing her. Food was a miss and service was a miss. Would I go back? No.

The Pandan Tres Leches is a must-try, and the ability to sample flavors before ordering makes the experience even better. -------- Full review: I absolutely love the ice cream here. You can either order from the kiosk or directly from the cashier, and I highly recommend doing the latter so you can sample some flavors before deciding. One thing that really stands out is their unique Asian-inspired flavors along with other globally influenced creations. It feels different from the typical ice cream shops out there. I always get the Pandan Tres Leches, which has coconut cake and condensed milk mixed in. The ice cream itself is not overly sweet and has a really pleasant flavor that balances everything well. There is limited seating available near the windows inside, and the space itself feels pretty similar to a typical ice cream shop. Overall, I highly recommend stopping by and trying some of their flavors. Even if you are unsure at first, it is a fun place to explore different combinations and try something outside of the usual ice cream flavors.

Unique Asian-inspired flavors that really stand out…read more Tried the Ube Malted Crunch® and pandan tres leches from Wanderlust Creamery and both flavors were memorable. The Ube Malted Crunch® definitely lived up to the hype. It was creamy, rich, and had that slightly nutty vanilla-like ube flavor with crunchy malted bits that added a really fun texture. You can see why it's their signature flavor. The pandan tres leches was also interesting and unique. It's light, creamy, and fragrant with a subtle pandan flavor that felt refreshing rather than overly sweet. It had a soft, milky dessert vibe that worked really well as ice cream. Service was friendly and patient while letting us sample flavors, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The vibe is modern, trendy, and fun, with lots of creative flavors inspired by different cultures and desserts around the world. Definitely feels like more than just a typical ice cream shop. Would absolutely come back to try more seasonal and specialty flavors next time.

We were clearly missing out; it's less than a 15-minute drive from our home. I love supporting local, family-owned businesses, especially when they offer great quality at such affordable prices. The "Nieves" are only $3, and you can choose any two flavors. That's a steal compared to the big chains, which charge around $7 for two scoops. The portions are generous, enough for sharing! They offer Chamoy or Tajin on top. My wife had chocolate, and my son got strawberry; they both loved how smooth the ice cream was. I was told their ice cream is either water or milk-based. I'd heard the Chamangos were a must-try, and that's an understatement. I asked the staff for recommendations, and she was incredibly sweet and helpful. I asked her to pick her top three flavors, and she chose lime, watermelon, and mango - they were excellent! I added Chamoy and a bit of Tajin. We're definitely coming back; I will absolutely get Chamangos again!

The unfortunate part is that the ice cream really isn't that good, and the portions are small for what you pay.  What really turned me off, though, was the lack of common sense from the staff. If you've been here, you know they have a display case with slices of cake and pie. Normally you look through the case and point to the piece you want. That's exactly what I did. There were about ten pieces of cake in the case, and I picked one that had the perfect icing-to-cake ratio. The employee asked what I wanted, and when I pointed to the slice she told me, "You can only pick from these two," while holding up two other pieces. Apparently those were the older slices that they were trying to get rid of. They were clearly smaller and, judging by how they were being pushed, probably not the freshest either. Since I was basically being forced to buy something I didn't want, I said I didn't want anything. She just said "okay" and moved on to help the rest of my family. At that point I told my family we were leaving and heading to Bloomfield Creamery in Altadena instead. The employee had every opportunity to use a little common sense and simply give me the slice I asked for. I work hard for my money, and if I'm paying premium prices, I expect to choose what I'm buying. Instead, they lost Madre family of customers for good.
