    mango coconut + snow cap, coffee flavored w/ ice cream base
    Emma M.

    I've been searching for Hawaii shave ice and this is IT. Friendly & fast service. Delicious shave ice with snow cap and ice cream base options (Hawaii style). Plentiful options. Nice outdoor seating.

    This place is such a hidden gem, off the beaten path in Milford, and VERY MUCH worth driving out of the way for. This is no common shaved ice place, because honestly, im not really into that. Paradise Ice is truly authentic Hawaiian Ice. They start with vanilla ice cream on the bottom (which I really recommend getting it this way, and this way only). They then add the shaved ice, flavor, and you MUST get a ice cap (condensed milk). I prefer the tropical flavors, but that is just my personal taste. The atmosphere here is really cool as theyve gone out of their way to make it feel tropical with palm trees, hibiscus, etc. There is plenty of seating and parking, and the staff is always super friendly and helpful. I wish they were open year round!

    Authentic Hawaiian shaved ice right here is Cincinnati. I highly recommend ordering your shaved ice the Island way. This involves a scoop of vanilla ice cream, shaved ice packed around the sides and top of said ice cream, up to three flavors of syrup, and topped with snow cap cream. I ordered mine with pineapple and guava syrup. I also added the Li Hing Mui powder. Otherwise known as dried salted sour plum powder. It was both decadent and refreshing. I am torn as to whether I should order it again. It was prefect. Yet they have so many other flavors I am interested in trying. My whole family agreed; we are in love with Paradise Ice. One of my children was even trying to bargain with us for another one. One of the owners came out to talk with us. He was a really nice guy. He told us that the line was so long on last year's closing day, that they had to stay open an additional two hours to accommodate everyone! That is customer service! He also had us drooling, and planning our next visit, with all his descriptions of upcoming flavors. Think Paradise Ice is only for the summer? Think again. Early September is when the fall flavors are released. There are about 20 new flavors released only for the end of their selling year. Many of there are richer, chocolate, and/or cake inspired flavors. The season typically runs until the first or second week in October. Closing date for the year is determined by weather.

    I stopped here on a recommendation from Go There. Try That. Sure, it's a half-hour drive out of the way and I was pretty much full from brunch, but it was worth it. Plus, it's summer and I always have room for frozen treats. :) We perused the menu and decided on a couple of flavors we could share. It was definitely tasty, and I'm already looking forward to going back and sampling even more unique flavor combinations!

    Ask the Community - Paradise Ice

    Do they have sweetened condensed milk as a topping?

    Aloha Brandy! Yes we do and it, along with the ice cream in the bottom, makes this an authentic hawaiian style shave ice experience! Hope you'll give us a try! Mahalo

    Cute little snow cone shake!! It was so cute!! I was greeted by a friendly staff and she answered…read moremy many questions about the menu. They had sugar free options so that was nice and they ice cream+snow cone combo was really yummy. Perfect to have in your hands when walking around the area on a summer day.

    I can easily give this ice shack five stars, as I have been coming here for decades! My mom and dad…read moreused to take me here when I was a kid to get a nice cool snack. It brings back so many thoughts of summer! In my adult life, I have still continued to visit often, as I am on the bike trail several times throughout the week. For instance, I was on a 14 mile run in the hot sunshine and noticed that the ice shack was now open! I had to stop and get a snack, as I was so thirsty! The ice definitely cooled me down and helped give me some energy to finish my run. I have been checking out the natural flavors. These are flavors that are natural fruit juices. My favorite is the Hawaiian sunset! Even if you don't want to go all natural, there is an entire list to choose from. It would be a great mission to choose a new flavor each week over the summer (an all-time favorite is black cherry!!). They also have shaved ice available over ice cream. If you get the orange shaved ice on top of vanilla ice cream, it tastes just like a creamsicle. Grab some shaved ice and start walking down the bike trail. You see lots of people doing this during the summer, and it's the perfect summer activity and treat!
