As someone who is lactose intolerant but loves ice cream, I was so excited to hear about Fragaria. This newly opened ice cream shop specializes in plant-based, non-dairy ice cream, mixed with real fruit. Their base ice cream is made from cocoa butter, oat milk and coconut, and comes in vanilla, chocolate or coconut. To that, you can add real fruit such as strawberries, cherries, raspberries, blueberries or bananas, and then add toppings. The toppings are fun such as pistachios, dye-free sprinkles or honeycomb toffee, that is known as hokie pokie in New Zealand. Then, you can get your ice cream in a cup or a waffle cone. The first time I went, I got vanilla base with cherries, topped with hokie pokie and melted chocolate. To make the mixed fruit ice cream, the servers put scoops of the base in their special cone like blenders, then add fruit and turn on the machines. This creates a soft serve that is then swirled into your cup or cone. The honeycomb toffee was sweet but not too sweet and crunched easily in my mouth. The melted chocolate hardened when it hits the cold ice cream and creates a nice webbed shell. I will say with so many toppings, I wasn't able to taste much of the actual ice cream. And, the bottom seemed like it didn't mix well so was just vanilla. The next time I went, I got the berries (strawberries and raspberries) with vanilla base in a cup with just melted chocolate. I felt I was able to taste the sweetness of the strawberry with the tartness of the raspberry better this way. Also, I appreciated that the server decided to run my ice cream through the cone blender again as she noticed that some of the fruit didn't mix in all the way. I'm just ecstatic that there is finally an ice cream place for me and I don't have to take any lactose medicine to eat it. read more

Fragaria is a really interesting concept combining non-dairy ice cream and fruit with a unique process. The whole experience felt exciting and it's cool to see some innovation on ice cream. We did visit during the soft open, so potentially they were still working out kinks, but our ice cream was not properly mixed with half of it being super sour/fruity and half having no fruit at all. They also only have the ability to make two ice creams at a time, with each taking some time to press through the machine. Makes the line go very slow during a peak time, as they're simply limited to how many they can make. The space itself is very nice and updated, with a decent amount of seating. Parking lot is not busy in the evening as it's the only business open later. Overall, I love seeing new and unique concepts coming to Orlando, but for a $9 ice cream I probably won't be frequenting here. read more

I've enjoyed Fragaria's food truck and now I'm happy to have the opportunity to visit the new storefront! The location is nicely decorated and the server was very courteous. The ice cream was tasty without being overly sweet. I'm definitely looking forward to future visits! read more

New Zealand Ice cream has alwyas been one of my top tier soft serve spots because of how it's prepared. They are so difficult to find around Orlando , but really glad I got to stop by and try some of their delicious signatures and fruit infused ice cream ! Definitely recommend the signatures they have or even the basic vanilla and chocolate . Wait time varies , but took about 15 mins due to a small crowd. read more

Really great ice cream. I got a seasonal cone offering & didn't change anything. Vibrant artwork & delicious. I think it could be better if served bigger. Service was good, prompt. The only way service could be better though is if I had been asked if I wanted the New Zealand-style plant-based ice cream base as low sugar or no added sugar. I forgot they offered an option concerning the base. I gobbled it up. Guava sauce was outstanding. I usually eat guava Cuban style and not Polynesian or South Seas. Interesting paring the guava flavor with almonds, blueberry & dragon fruit flavor. read more

If you are looking for something different to beat the Florida heat than this is the ice cream for you. The soft serve is actually blended with fruits or other toppings of your choice. The machines that do the mixing are fun to watch and you can see all the action from behind the counter. I loved the seasonal flavors that they offer. I went for the traditional pistachio chocolate in a waffle cone and a spicy mango in a cup to see the difference. Very tasty ice cream but a bit high on the price point for the size you get. You're paying for that fun little show. They also use KOS coffee which is a fantastic brand and that was absolutely delicious with the ice cream. A perfect match. The interior has plenty of seating so you can enjoy the atmosphere. Everyone was very friendly and helpful in choosing a flavor that was unique and popular. read more

Dairy Free DELICIOUSNESS delivered! The flavors are so creamy and yummy and the toppings are insane! What a great find for ice cream lovers who can't do dairy! I had the Chocolate Covered Strawberry and my friend had a mix of chocolate, cherry and crunchy toffee. So cold and refreshing and my stomach is super happy with the plant based frozen treat! They even have Oreo toppings that are gluten free! Soft serve ice cream in so many different flavors! The folks behind the counter were just as sweet as this dessert, too! Plenty of seating and apparently the concept is from New Zealand! I will be back, a lot!!! read more

Welcome to Maitland! "Better than soft serve" per my son. We will definitely be back. The ice cream was so smooth, buttery and delicious! The flavor was spot on! As a family we ordered the strawberry kiddy cup, a regular chocolate covered strawberry cup, a regular Berry Pistachio Crunch and a regular Triple Choco Banana. I would get each one again but the raspberry ice cream was the best and I would get that just on its own. I hope to try the waffle cone next time, but they were out as this is their soft opening, and we were there towards closing. Wishing them much success. The owners are so kind and clearly passionate and excited. read more

Our family came on a Friday night. My Son Harry says get the triple chocolate banana ftw!!!

3.5 stars - I saw the signs of the soft opening but was never really in a good way to turn into the mini mall area until today. Went in, was greeted and took a look at the offerings. I decided to go with a cup of vanilla with blueberries swirl ($7.46) with not additional add ons since I wanted to taste it. The ice cream was intensely blue which was cute, small bits of blueberry skin came through and there were one or two bits of sugar which was frozen too. Flavorwise, it was a nice treat with a smooth creaminess to the plant based ice cream. The area had six tables inside and three benches outside, it was a cozy little shop. I do wish one of the three workers would come out to clean the tables. I had to sit amongst someone's crumbles of oreos and some dried up ice cream on the table. read more

Everything from the service to vibe was brilliant. The only thing better was the dessert. It was absolutely amazing! I can't wait to go back. I even bought a pint to bring home. read more

We actually happened to be in the area (sort of), and the kids wanted ice cream. We're vegan, and I remember seeing this place posted by someone I follow on Facebook and I pulled it up. We got here around 12:20 and were upset they don't open till 1pm on Saturday so we drove around for a bit and waited. A few mins before 1, there were a few other people who walked up and it was busy just like that! They make each one individually and it melts pretty quickly so don't worry about waiting for anyone else! I love the choices they had so I got one of those, but you can also build your own. We got 3 cones and 1 cup, and it came out to $40. A little pricy but it was worth it. Now, to open one of these down in WPB, I'd be there regularly!! read more

I went the ice cream shop on Saturday afternoon. It was not too busy. I found a couch seat very easily. The interior is warm and inviting with a fireplace and plenty of seating space. I ordered a dragon fruit ice cream with waffle cone. The young lady assisted my order was very nice and helpful. I would love to come back for a sweet treat. read more

Ran across this food truck tonite at Lake Eola's Merry Market, and decided that it was the universe telling me that it was time to taste "New Zealand Ice Cream". The nice gentleman said that the berry combo was the most popular flavor, so why not. Now, I was leaning towards cherry, and maybe should have gone with that, because blackberries and raspberries aren't really my fave. The fun thing about low expectations is how easy it is to beat them, and I liked this way more than I expected. What I liked most was actually a teeny bit of the plain non-dairy ice cream base that was hiding under all the berry infused parts. I would definitely eat the "plain" - there are hints of the ingredient flavors that put it a solid step above plain old vanilla. Looking forward to trying more next time I see this truck out and about! read more

Fragaria - Mixed berry New Zealand ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Maitland, Florida

Fragaria was such a neat spot. The ice cream was novel as it was New Zealand-style with fresh fruit mixed in. It was aesthetically pleasing and yummy. The place had a cute color scheme and vibe as well. I liked the one with the honeycomb the best. The seasonal one with strawberry banana blend was good and came in 2nd. The berry with the pistachio was ok but lacked a bit of sweetness for me. I definitely want to come back and try their other flavors. I went on a Saturday and parking was easy to find which was nice. read more

So excited to have this new, unique, bespoke concept in Maitland! I don't think I've ever tried an ice cream quite like this - it is all plant-based/vegan and so creamy and full of flavor! Their menu has some creative combination suggestions, or you can create your own. Real fruit is blended smooth into a vanilla or chocolate base, then topped with a variety of exciting toppings like roasted pistachios, Tajín and Chamoy, or honeycomb toffee! There is a good amount of seating inside, and the decor is fun and tropical! read more

I'm not a huge ice cream fan, but I thought I would give this place a try. It is a really cool concept where they take a scoop of ice cream and fruit and then blend it together into a soft serve. Once it's a soft serve, you can have various toppings. Personally, it did nothing to increase my love for ice cream. The store was clean and the staff was friendly. I ordered a cup with chocolate ice cream and cherries with chocolate and honeycomb crunch toppings which came in at $9. If you like soft serve, but want more variety this might be the place for you. read more

Fragaria is absolute perfection! I truly cannot say enough about how fantastic this ice cream is. It is incredibly creamy, bright, and fresh. And all the ice cream is dairy free!! I ordered the Raspberry Hokey Pokey, and the raspberry balanced the honeycomb perfectly. As someone who can't eat dairy, finding satisfying ice cream is usually a struggle. Orlando has some really great spots, but in my opinion, Fragaria beats them all. The ice cream is just sweet enough, perfectly salted, and so creamy I was honestly blown away. The shop itself is absolutely adorable and a super comfortable place to chill for a while. Plus, the owners are so friendly and helpful! We loved it so much we had to buy a pint to take home before we left. I can't wait to go back and try more flavors. If you're looking for the best ice cream treat in town, this is it! read more

Pros: A nice food truck that was parked at the Florida Fringe Festival. Very nice of them to support such a great festival. Service was great, too. Very nice folks, and the making of the ice cream is a show in itself. The ice cream itself was very delicious. It was light and cold and refreshing. It had a slight berry flavor, but a natural one, not an artificial one. Cons: No cons. I wish I could have eaten many more of them. Tips: If you see this truck, eat there. It's good. Especially in this Florida heat. read more

Fragaria - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Maitland, Florida

I love this new little ice cream spot in Maitland! A big sell to me is that it's dairy free, but they also offer gluten free options as well! I got to build my own and I must say it was super fruity and creamy, but having the pistachios on top just completed the whole experience with that tad bit of salt. From beginning to end the whole experience was positive and the vibe in there just felt like you could be at ease. I have a feeling I'll be back again and again! read more

Fragaria - Chocolate Covered Strawberry and a Build Your own with vanilla, raspberry, and cherry topped with pistachios! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Maitland, Florida

I was so excited to try this place as I LOVE a plant based dessert. But I was sorely disappointed. I got the raspberry special and it was largely flavorless. The texture of it was good but lacking virtually any flavor. Not to mention it was over $10 for a single regular. The staff was friendly and the interior design was super cute. read more

3.5 Stars This food truck couldn't have appeared at a better time after a full day of shopping at an outdoor market in the Florida sun. Fragaria offers New Zealand-style ice cream which essentially means that they blend premium vanilla ice cream with berries or other fruits to make an airy, soft-serve treat. The machine they use to blend is pretty cool looking, but it's slow and takes time for every order to be made. We got the Mixed Berry soft serve and it was very refreshing and delicious. All their ice creams are plant-based, so I was pleasantly surprised how creamy everything was. Their flavors and offerings are pretty limited, but they have both traditional scooped ice cream and soft-serve! Prices are a bit high for ice cream, but they use premium ingredients and it felt generally healthy to eat. read more

Found Fragaria on the lawn of the Florida Fringe Festival this past year. It was super hot out there, so seeking out a cool, refreshing treat was bound to happen. We saw this place, had never heard of New Zealand ice cream, so of course we had to try this novel, new concept. I forget exactly what we ordered, I think it was just their signature offering, and man, it was so delicious. The berries were so wonderfully integrated into the ice cream, and it was natural, not berry extract with extra sugar, so it was subtle, not in your face. Just lovely. Adding in the texture of the waffle cone and the crushed pistachio, and this was the cool and refreshing treat we were looking for. 5/5. Would return. read more

I love that every thing on the menu is dairy free. I ordered the raspberry hokey pokey which is one of the signature swirls and the fruity honey comb and chocolate combination was a winner! Looking forward to trying out their affogato which will be available soon. read more

Way Overpriced. Had the berry chocolate pistachio and honestly, it was disgusting. Couldn't even finish it. Regular size was nine dollars and change. This is the reason I never pre-tip. You never know what you're gonna get. It was literally the worst soft serve I've ever had read more
