    Jenifer is so amazing and she has the most delicious frozen treats. I got the raspberry plum basil pop and the ice cream sandwiches are all gluten free, dairy free, and Organic. She also has beautiful jewelry and artisan gifts and one of a kind local items.

    Staff: The lady was so very nice. My favorite thing about my visit is the payment kiosk didn't have the VERY frustrating guilt tip question. The device merely asked for payment which made me so very happy. Quality/Quantity: They had a bunch of clothes, jewelry, and various ice cream options. The ice cream sandwiches were a high quality with organic ingredients which again made me so happy. These babies were huge and packed with delicious ice cream inside of a delicious cookie. Value: Not bad at all. Overall: I really enjoyed the spot. Great ambiance, plenty of parking, a few tables to sit at, and good service. Pro Tip: Easy to miss as it looks like a pop up store so you wouldn't even know they sold ice cream if no one told you.

    Clockwise from the top: vanilla chai, lavender lemonade, sea salt caramel ice cream sandwich, root beer popsicle, and raspberry plum basil.

    Very cute little kiosk that sells unique goods and yummy popsicles! We really loved the unique flavours and the owner was so nice. We tried root beer, lavender lemonade, vanilla chai and raspberry plum basil for the popsicle flavours. I appreciated that they had both dairy and non-dairy options and there were plenty of varieties of both. Our favourite was the root beer which had great flavour and a nice creamy center- like a root beer float on a stick! We had them on a sunny SoCal January day and will be back again!

    Strawberry shortcake ice cream sandwich (gluten free, vegan)

    If you're looking for a sweet treat that checks off all the boxes (delicious, vegan, gluten-free, artisanal), then look no further, HiveXO is the place. This quaint little shop looks like it could be found on a cobblestone corner in a European village - rather than off a busy street in OC. Let's get down to brass tacks : I was lead here by my sweet tooth and I was overjoyed to discover that they have all kinds of treats for those with dietary restrictions. I got the "special" shortbread cookies ice cream sandwich (with coconut milk ice cream). And it WAS special ! Enormous in size, a true marvel of design, topped with frozen strawberries; it was so delicious. I *might* already have plans to return tomorrow...

    Best vegan and GF ice cream sandwiches!!!

    The best gluten free/dairy free ice cream treats! The ice cream sandwiches are still Very rich for me so I usually split with someone! Took my Dad here and he loved it!

    This is a cute hidden gem full of delicious treats! My sister told me about this spot while visiting California, she said it had the most delicious vegan ice cream sandwiches that are homemade. We stopped by and I knew I was in for a treat! The ice cream is delicious, they have many flavors to choose from. The cookies are soft and have the perfect amount of salt. They sell handmade items and the owners are very friendly. If I lived near by I would frequent this spot!

My husband got the waffle cone and the ice cream serving seems a lot bigger in it. They also have desserts like cookies and brownies to choose from. Workers are kind and helpful. They usually have a long line, but it goes quickly!

    ORANGE COUNTY CREAMERY @ SAN CLEMENTE…read more This spot is located in downtown San Clemente. My boyfriend and I were just walking by after parking on the street nearby. Most of the street parking is free, some spots are two hours while others are only 20 minutes, so definitely pay attention to the signs. Parking can be a little difficult, but once you see someone leave, you can usually grab a spot pretty quickly. We honestly didn't have too much trouble finding parking, it just depends on timing and luck. There aren't really seats inside, but they do have one big table outside. Overall, downtown San Clemente is super walkable, and there are plenty of benches nearby where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream while walking around. My boyfriend and I tried a bunch of their flavors, and my personal favorite was the mint chocolate chip. The chocolate flakes inside were so delicious and had the perfect texture. My boyfriend got the chocolate coffee flavor, which he really liked too. We each got one scoop, and it came out to around $4-5 each. Overall, everything was delicious. It feels like a small hidden gem, and I would definitely come back. The ice cream was super good, and the service was great too.

Pros: This spot is simple, easy, and right in the middle of the main San Clemente strip, so it's convenient if you're already walking around the area. It's more of a quick stop than a sit-down dessert place, which fits the location well. The ice cream was really good and tasted fresh. I got the coffee chocolate scoop and my girlfriend got the mint chocolate chip, and both were solid. They also offered samples, which made it easy to decide before ordering. The service was friendly and efficient, and everything moved quickly even when there were a few people in line. Cons: Parking is the main issue here. It's all street parking with a mix of short-term (15 minutes) and longer (2 hours) spots, so you have to be careful and quick. It can also take a bit of driving around the main road to find an open spot, especially during busy hours. Verdict: Good stop if you're in downtown San Clemente and want a quick ice cream option. Solid quality, fast service, and convenient location, but parking can be difficult.

It was a very satisfying chocolate cupcake with a raspberry cream on top covered in fine chocolate. I regretted that we discovered it the night just before we departed.

This time for my birthday, I thought we'd try a standard flavor cake since they should be making it on the regular. We got the lemon delight. It was super sweet. I couldn't eat any of the frosting and the frosting filling next to the lemon was very sweet. They also messed up my name. I remember my husband spelling out my name like the military nato style too but what was written on the order form was wrong. And then on the cake was wrong and didn't even match the order form. I know my name is difficult but I guess the decorator wasn't there so it was a difficult fix. They apologized and gave us candles. On a side note and not affecting this rating: We ate at the cafe side once and it was good. But we sat outside and had a bad experience unrelated to the cafe. Someone with their huge hairy dog was just outside the cafe and rubbing their long hair dog getting it into the air and the wind was blowing it all over our food and drinks and also in the nearby tables. Definitely killed the appetite. This is not affecting the rating. Rating is based solely on the cakes.
