Strawberry cheesecake (to go)
Liz B.

A nice refreshing treat on a hot day! The shaved ice is made with a creamier base, and it reminded me of Taiwanese shaved ice that I've had in the past. The texture just melts in your mouth, and I prefer it over normal shaved ice, which tends to get a little icy and watered down. We tried the strawberry cheesecake, which was a little too sweet, but the strawberry added a nice tartness. Service was excellent, it wasn't crowded so our shaved ice came out quickly. We were also able to get ours to go, but I would suggest eating it within 5-10 minutes since it melts fast. It's located in the Historic Yucaipa neighborhood with lots of local shops nearby to walk around.

This is a nice place in downtown Yucaipa. They have very limited hours. They have plenty of nice refreshing options. They set up some tables outside to eat at.

This was my first time going here without having to share 99% of my dessert with my children. The tuxedo literally tasted like chocolate dipped strawberries. The ice is so soft and smooth. The flavor hits just right. Overall great staff and a great place to stop by for dessert, especially during hot summers.

I want to start off by saying, Yucaipa has some amazing spots! I was in the mood for some sort of dessert one day and this business popped up and immediately i thought it looked amazing. I decided to give it a try and let me tell you. BLOWN AWAY. The consistency is so light and creamy and its full of flavor! The girls working there are amazing and the service is always top notch. Its a small little spot and could be hard to miss, but im telling you, ya'll have to try it! I go maybe once a week now when im craving a nice cold treat.

This place is nice and the shaved ice cream are do delicious and I love I will come back next time

Cute shop next to the bookstore. Promising flavors and combinations. For $7 you get a tiny snow mound on a small paper plate. Service was prompt and quick. No indoor seating. We had to eat outside in the 90 degree heat. The chocolate flavor on this was as if someone diluted chocolate pudding mix with more water, froze it, and used it for shaved ice. It was not as strong on the chocolate flavor plus it had a strange almost gummy texture too. As a lover of Korean shaved snow, Hawaiian shaved ice, and Taiwanese shaved show, this style and flavor of snow just didn't appeal to me. Appreciate the artistry but I will probably visit a proper snow place next time.

Tasty and fun! First time at element and we enjoyed the flavors so much! I did see a lot of comments in the reviews regarding price but when I compare the $7 here to a likeit size (small) at coldstone it's less expensive and a lot more flavorful. Only downside is the parking/ no seating inside. Customer service is great, the person making our treats was very kind.

Presentation was AMAZING. It tasted delicious. I wasn't a huge fan of the texture. It kinda looks like kinetic sand on the inside. Employee was super sweet!

Cinnamon delight and strawberry cheesecake
Tiffany M.

My partner found this place on tik tok and it looked good so we decided to check it out. It did not disappoint! I tried the cinnamon delight and it was delicious! The staff was amazing, friendly and offered suggestions. We sat outside since it was a cozy night which was perfect. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a sweet treat.

You have to try this place!! Such a fun experience trying their flavored ice and my daughter said it best, "it's like eating yummy kinetic sand" but it really was a great treat and light and refreshing. We can't wait to go back to try more.

Strawberry cheesecake
Jasmin P.

Glad I stopped during the winter festival. The girl at the front desk was very lovely and helpful. I got the strawberry cheesecake which to me it tasted more like strawberry shortcake but either way it was delicious. Grabbed a seat outside and they brought it to us which was very sweet. I'll be coming again!

Chocolate Fudge Browie

This is the third time coming out here just for some shaved ice. Drove an hour to get here. We really enjoy them on a hot day, or any day to be honest. It wasn't busy when we got there but it did after we got our desserts. We will be coming back again.

See all

Liquid nitrogen theater meets serious small-batch craft…read more If you're strolling down Citrus Avenue in downtown Redlands after dinner, the billowing clouds of liquid nitrogen vapor rolling across the counter at À La Minute are almost as impossible to walk past as are the lines of patrons that extend well outside the store on a typical night. What sets this spot apart isn't just the sci-fi preparation (science and art together) --it's the noticeable difference in texture. Because the liquid nitrogen flash-freezes the cream almost instantly, the ice crystals never have a chance to grow. The result is an exceptionally dense, velvety-smooth scoop that standard churned ice cream simply can't match. The flavors reflect a real commitment to fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. Staples like Salted Caramel hit that perfect balance between savory and sweet without tasting artificial, while seasonal options like Strawberry Balsamic show off their creative side. The Avocado Honey flavor comes with a nice garnish of a waffle chip adorning the rim. However, my all-time favorite for over a decade of customer-hood has to be the caffeine boost from the espresso chip. Pacing & Tips: Because every single order is mixed and flash-frozen from scratch right before your eyes, lines can back up out the door on weekend evenings. It moves at a steady pace, and enjoying the process is half the fun. Grab a bench nearby along Citrus Ave to enjoy it before it melts! Pro tip: the Crepes of Wrath spot down the street has some great-tasting crepes that pair well with any chosen ice cream from A La Minute.

Was pretty busy on a Saturday night but the line moved pretty quick. There's maybe a couple seats…read moreinside the shop but it's pretty small so I would recommend walking around the area to eat or just finding a table to sit at. Not a huge menu but they had a good mix of both classic and unique flavors which I appreciated. I thought the mini size was a good amount of ice cream and I could've shared just that with another person since I wasn't in a huge ice cream mood. The ice cream here is def pretty thick and creamy which I liked Avocado: 4/5 this was very fresh and I liked the ice cream itself a lot. Didn't love the honey on too but that's just personal preference Salted caramel: 4/5 slightly too salty for me but my boyfriend thought it was perfect

Nice and clean both inside & out plus restrooms. I'm glad we didn't go to the other big yogurt place on Oak Glen/Live Oak, they have less than 4 stars and to be honest feels awkward going to that plaza, just does.
