Labubu Ice Cream
Shannon D.

The absolute cutest ice cream cones we've ever seen!!! There's so many options we couldn't just get one! We ordered a Labubu and My Melody both with strawberry ice cream. We later went back and ordered Hello Kitty and a Squid Games Dalgona Cookie. Everything is almost too cute to eat! The lady working was super sweet. We're already talking about we want to get next time!

Kirby Ice Cream (Strawberry)
Jeanette K.

A cute little place inside the food court of East ridge. They had a lot of options to choose from. You order from a little screen (I'm unsure if you can order traditionally from the staff) and they call out your number. The ice cream was delicious and presentation is so cute. The only thing is to pay attention to what your kids order if they place their own orders on the screen- another parent almost took my ice cream because the workers weren't the loudest in calling out my number other than that, still would recommend buying from here if you can afford to pay for the visuals (it was about $6 with tax for the one speciality ice cream) :)

Some Characters on the Menu

Cute design of the shop with self service menu. Character ice cream was reasonably priced (6.84 with tax). You can choose the ice cream flavor for character, and the decorations are cute and made of chocolate. Quick service. Would recommend if you want a cute ice cream cone

Ube ice cream with a taiyaki
Tiffany L.

A cute little sweet treat that's right in between the food court and movie theater in Eastridge. MoMaCaDo is a cozy stand where you can get ice cream, taiyaki, drinks and other snacks! The staff was pretty quiet but had made our order very well- it was pretty cute and tasty! OKAY THE FOOD: * Animal shaped ice cream: My boyfriend had gotten vanilla ice cream in the shape of a penguin, and it came out SO dang cute. * Ube ice cream with taiyaki: They make taiyaki per order- the combination of a hot crispy taiyaki and a perfectly chilled ice cream was SO GOOD. I had to sit down and enjoy it- I'd definitely come back.

There are more choices of characters than what's on this photo

Have been wanting to come here for so long!! Always thought it was a standalone store, but come to find out it's in the food court on the 2nd floor of Eastridge Mall! Their stand was cute, and there were so many choices of the character ice cream. There are bobas and other things on the menu, but we went straight for the My Melody and unicorn ice cream for me. What surprised me was that it was so inexpensive- please see photos of the menu.

Absolutely enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I came here with family with the goal of getting cute looking ice cream and taking photos of them. If the ice cream was good, well that's just an added bonus. I got the Kirby shaped ice cream. Although I could've gotten any flavor I wanted, I went with Kirby's default pink which was strawberry. I didn't want to get too cute with Kirby's color and design. And it was absolutely delicious, some of the better strawberry ice cream I've had recently. I would come back here just to take more pictures of other characters and then eat them. My aunts also got taiyaki with their ice cream. But the flavor they got was ube. Look, I know ube is the popular thing these days for some reason but the ube ice cream here tastes absolutely NOTHING like ube. Maybe taro, but not ube. They didn't even give it the over exaggerated purple color to try to fool you. Anyway, it wasn't good. But the taiyaki was good! It was actually hot and freshly made, unlike at other places. So that's good. Everything was great except the ube ice cream.

Too cute!! Plus affordable. I would have thought dessert like this would have costed an arm and leg but I say it was very reasonable. They had a lot of customers when I walked up but no wait was really had. There is a kiosk computer to order on. There are a lot more selections but the ice cream characters are pretty much a must. The ice cream options for the characters are vanilla, chocolate, ube, and strawberry. The decorations that make up the characters is a white chocolate candy. The wait wasn't long and they are located at the food court of the mall across from the movie theaters upstairs. I wish we had a location similar to this in the San Joaquin and Alameda area. We took a staycation to explore since we haven't been to San Jose in years. I will be sharing, showing, and telling all my family and friends I would rate with more stars if I could!! Everything was presentable. They even had extra sprinkles at the pick up area if yourselves wanted to add more cuteness

Kirby Shaped Ube Ice Cream
Yeebing T.

Thought it'd be good to get some ice cream while waiting for my friend in Eastridge Mall, and was immediately drawn to the cutesy ambiance of MoMaCaDo. The choices of flavors are a little limited, but considering their specialty seemed to be in cute character-shaped ice cream I didn't mind it too much. I decided to get the Kirby one in ube form, and the service was much quicker than I expected. The ube isn't as sweet as other places, but it was still good. The price was also around $5, which wasn't too bad and probably around the same price as most of the other ice cream places that I've encountered. Overall, it was a delicious treat! I wouldn't mind trying out one of the other specialty ice creams if I happen to end up in the Eastridge food court again.

Inside Eastridge Mall at the food court. Line was long but went quick! 2 Ladies who worked there were very kind and friendly, great customer service! It's inside the food court so it's pretty loud. Such a cute little kiosk that you have to take your kids or just a treat for yourself! Loved that they had the Dalgona or Ppopgi from the show Squid Game! $16.99 for 4 of them. So I bought 8 of them! Definitely will return and highly recommended! Yay!

Cute ice cream cones that were a hit with the kiddos (and me, too). A bit spendy for an everyday cone (close to $6 for a single scoop) but OK for a special treat. Love the decorating station if you want to add a bit more flair to your cone, but it was tricky picking up the sprinkles with tweezers. Guess that's an acquired skill It's a self-order arrangement (order through the kiosk). The staff was friendly at the handoff so you're not completely out of touch with humans. Will come back to try some of the drinks and other cute offerings.

Mel L.

Very easy process. You order from the kiosk and they'll call your number when ready. Everything looks adorable! I only tried the ice cream (vanilla with chocolate decorations). Nothing special, but really really cute.

Kirby looking extra fine

Calling all Kawaii Gals!! You know, the girls that be the biggest thooters for anything being sold, stamped with a hello kitty sticker on it... yeah those girls, you know who you are. Scrolling through Yelp religiously got me stumbling across this dessert stand MoMaCaDo. The name makes me feel as though I'm a kid trying to learn how to speak or animal sounds. ANYWAYS just look at the pictures as they have a small variety of different dessert, and what caught my attention was the ice creams. This stand is located in the EastRidge food court, keeping the vibes casual. After looking at the menu, i decided on getting the Pompompurin ice cream with chocolate ice cream. The cashier failed to notify me that my dog was going to be the same shade of the ice cream instead of them coving the color in a sort of colored chocolate which caught me off guard. My Pompompurin came to me looking.... Extra tan. After receiving my order my girlie changed her mind and decided not to get a dessert with me. The ice cream date was broken all because Pompompurin decided to go to Hawaii right before my visit. There was nothing special about the ice cream, it's just regular ice cream. So, if they didn't pride themselves upon the cute ice cream characters, you could and should pass. I am deeply sorry and might regret this decision in the future, but i gotta keep it 100 with the Thooters

A cute thing...as a food product??? Even better! Once I saw that Momocado had cute character ice creams (that I have NEVER seen elsewhere in California, unless you're counting the ones at Belly Good Crepe SF), I KNEW that I had to go. It was so cute, that I ended up going TWICE on the weeklong trip that I was on in NorCal and I know its going to be a must stop EVERY TIME I go to NorCal now! It's a kiosk located at the Eastridge Mall food court and you can't miss it with how cute it is! Cute dog and cat decorations all around. If you're not in the mood for their animal/character ice cream, they also have taiyaki, soft serve ice cream, and boba drinks here too! Ordering is simply done through their touch screen tablet. For the animal ice creams you can choose the character/animal decoration and the flavor of the ice cream. Just know that the flavor won't necessarily match your character's canon color if you're okay with, let's say, a vanilla PomPomPurin or something. I got the: 1) Lolita Kuromi ice cream: -I got this in ube flavor to match her purple color. 2) Chef Kirby ice cream: -I got this in strawberry flavor to match his pink color. All the decorations on your ice cream are made from white chocolate and are cute and detailed too. Doesn't look bootlegged at all and if you told me you got this off the street in an Asian country and not in a random mall in San Jose, I would believe you 100%. The ice cream isn't too sweet nor is it too icy and they fill all the way to the bottom of the cone. You also have the option to use their sprinkles decoration self-serve bar after you get your order and add extra pearls, gems, stars, etc. to make your ice cream even cuter! Even the wrapping on the ice cream cone and the little cover to make sure it doesn't melt everywhere are cute too! They do not skimp out on the cuteness and that's already a 5 stars from me. I can't wait to see if they add more flavors in the future since I think they only have ube/taro, strawberry, vanilla, and lemon and to see if they are going to add more characters too! When I visited they no longer had Lina Bell and Stella Lou (Duffy and Friends characters from the Disney Asia parks), so I was a bit sad about that. Hopefully they make a comeback and hopefully we can see more cute characters (would love to see Hangyodon, Tuxedo Sam, some San-X characters - Rilakkuma, Sumikko Gurashi, Chiikawa, or even more Poke'mon!

Are there any gluten free options? Can the cute characters be put in a gluten free cone or made in a cup?

Just called the business and was told they don't have any gluten free options available.

Do they have dairy free options?

Sorry, we don’t at this moment. Thank you.

It was definitely noticeable in the soft serve and made everyone else around us notice it too. The soft serve was smooth and creamy, not icy like cafeteria quality soft serve.

They weren't too busy, so we took our time trying to decide what flavor of ice cream to get. They have a lot of unique flavors. They also have a designated counter where you can stand and enjoy your ice cream inside. The young lady helping us was very nice and let us know that we could sample anything we'd like. We tasted a sample of the SF Fog. It's an Earl Grey ice cream with marshmallow fluff. It really did look like the fog in San Francisco. It was delicious. We both liked it. So we decided to get a scoop of that and a scoop of the Black Out. The Black Out ice cream is a chocolate ice cream mixed with brownies and Oreo cookies. We decided to eat it inside.

I ordered their fresh sugarcane drink, and wow -- it was incredibly refreshing, perfectly balanced, and tasted so pure and natural. You could really tell it was made with real sugarcane; it was lightly sweet, crisp, and incredibly thirst-quenching. It paired beautifully with the desserts! Then came the star of the show: their macarons. These were easily some of the best I've ever had. The shells were perfectly crisp on the outside with that ideal chewy center, and the fillings were rich, flavorful, and not overly sweet. I tried a few different flavors and each one was a little masterpiece -- delicate, elegant, and bursting with taste. They practically melted in my mouth! The ambiance is cozy and inviting, the staff is super friendly, and everything feels made with so much care and passion. If you're looking for a charming spot to satisfy your cravings with high-quality sweets and refreshing drinks, **The Sweet Corner** is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back soon -- probably with friends next time so I can try even more! Highly recommend!

It's an interesting blend that kind of works, even if it takes a second to figure out what the "theme" is supposed to be. They offer a wide range of desserts and drinks. On one side, you've got items like tartufo (chocolate, cappuccino, limoncello, pistachio), sorbets, and cheesecake slices in the display case. On the other side, they have traditional Vietnamese-style desserts like sweet soups (chè), grass jelly, black-eyed bean pudding, and combo desserts with things like cassava, jelly, and coconut. There's also a solid drink menu with milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, and specialty coffees. I ordered the latte with matcha foam, and while I don't usually go for sweet drinks, this one was definitely on the sweeter side--but still really good. The matcha foam added a nice earthy balance to the coffee underneath. My friend got the three-color iced drink (the one with layered beans and jelly), and if you're into that texture and flavor profile, you'd probably enjoy it. The service stood out. The man helping us (possibly the owner) was very friendly, patient, and took the time to explain menu items, which I appreciated since some of the desserts aren't as familiar if you haven't had them before. The display case also looked well-stocked and clean, with everything neatly packaged and labeled, which made it easy to browse. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're in the area and want something a little different from the usual dessert shops. The only reason it's not a full 5 stars is because the concept feels slightly all over the place, but the quality, variety, and service definitely make it worth checking out.
