Before I go into full detail on this review, I personally wanted to give mad props and a shoutout…read moreto the young male employee that worked effortlessly all by himself on a busy Saturday afternoon. This takes me "Dream Ice Cream Parlor", one of the few family-owned ice cream parlors in the Stockton area. Located in a strip mall and on the corner of West Ln/E. March Ln, this place has been serving up its delicious varieties of traditional and unique ice creams and desserts dating back to early-2017. I came here with my lady during the afternoon on Saturday 8/22/2026 at 3:00pm. Parking was not difficult as it is shared with many other businesses. Upon arrival, it was quite busy as there was at least a dozen customers ahead of us still waiting to order. During our wait, we observed the menu and noticed they offer more than just your standard ice cream (in a cup or cone). This place offers "Dream Buns" which is ice cream between a donut. Another exclusive item is their "Puffles" which is ice cream in a cup with an added bubble waffle. In addition to this, they also carry milkshakes as well as your choice of either churro or brownie sundaes. Jump forward 27 minutes later and it was finally our time to order. Considering there was only one employee running the show, I will not knock any points (or stars as Yelp goes) off this review. As for what we ordered, my lady went with a traditional scoop of strawberry ice cream complete with whipped cream and chocolate syrup. I opted for an old-fashioned sugar cone of their chocolate flavor. However, since the ice cream was not chilled at a certain temperature, the employee was gracious enough to give me more + put it in a cup. Think of it as a 2 for 1 deal while I only paid for the price of a single scoop. Despite the long wait time, this place was well worth it. The overall taste, consistency, and flavor of the ice cream was top notch and delicious. The interior layout was fairly spacious but lacking in seating as there was only so many chairs if you choose on enjoying your dessert inside. Keep in mind that they are closed on Tuesday/Wednesday. But they are open from 2-10pm Thursday through Monday. With that said and done, I am giving "Dream Ice Cream Parlor" in Stockton a perfect five out of five stars.

*PSA*: DO NOT MISS OUT ON NIKA'S MAD SWEETS!…read more Life is short, eat dessert first! And that was exactly what I intended to do when I was blessed with the fact that Nika's IG popped up on my FYP and had me drooling at the sight of all of her delicious creations. If you've heard about the quaint local Stockton Whimsy Market, you would know that Nika and her small business that consists of her adorable family, have a booth regularly at this market. I set out to go to the next one lined up and when I arrived I made a beeline for her booth. You know something lives up to it's hype if the lines are long! To be honest, waiting in line added to the anticipation of trying out the lineup she had that evening. Her husband was the one taking orders and not only was he kind but he made great small talk. It was a nice added personal touch. I'm all about community and getting to know people so when people take the time to greet you and chat, it goes a long way. I went home with their Best Selling Award Winning Ube White Chocolate Blondie. I've been hooked ever since. Did you know that she also makes custom cakes? No? Well now you do! Nika is an absolute sweetheart! I was so nervous to reach out to her on IG for my daughter's birthday cake. I had spoken to her on IG here and there before asking and was pleasantly surprised that she's the type of small business to engage with her followers. It made it a lot easier for me to ask if she would do me the honor of making my daughters 1st professionally made themed birthday cake for her 3rd birthday. Of course she agreed and she was so wonderful during the whole process of listening to what I had envisioned for the design, whilst also giving me great ideas and even had her friend also make a beautiful cake topper for it. I went for a classic chocolate cake with a swiss meringue butter cream and it was a hit at my daughter's party! Ever since then I've actively been trying out new sweets any chance I get and have fallen in love with so many more. After the Ube White Chocolate Blondie, my next favorite would have to be her Sweet Corn Mochi! She has such a variety of desserts that you'll never get tired of what she has to offer and believe me when I say, you'll continue to consistently come back for your favorites and new creations she comes up with! I'm floored that I'm the first one to review her small business, but don't let that fool you into thinking it's not worth trying. TRUST when I say RUN do not WALK at the opportunity to grab some delicious desserts and sweets. I promise just browsing through her IG alone will seal the deal for you! Her IG handle is: @nikasmadsweets! You can't buy happiness, but you can buy desserts and that's kind of the same thing! I'm the first to review so don't come for me that this was "too long!" I'm genuinely a huge fan and supporter of this small business! .

Food/Desserts/Antojitos: La Michoacana has a vast variety of options in ice cream both water based and milk based. They have interesting flavors such as arroz con leche ice cream, Ferrero Rocher, Gansito, and Passion Fruit just to mention some of my personal favorite flavors. Tosti-Locos and fruit cups with chammoy and Tajín are also in the menu. Drinks: La Michoacana has the option of aguas frescas, fresh fruit juices, and other prepared drinks. Cleanness: La Michoacana is one of the most clean food places I have ever encounter. It smells clean as soon as you step in the door and the staff is always keeping and maintaining the place neat. Another plus of this place is the food and fruits display, it is a piece or art to see the fresh fruit in the fridges. Staff: They make you feel like you're at home. They help you out in case you have questions and they are always ready to provide suggestions. Ambiance: there is not enough room to seat inside although they also have the option to enjoy your food outside. The music is for sure a plus in this place, they have a vast music selection which will make you dance a little as you are ordering and waiting for your food. Parking: there is parking right outside the place and in case those are filled, one can always park by the street and it is a nice 1-2 minute walking distance. Note: [I'm sorry for the poor image quality, I will make sure to go back and take a better one]

These are VERY MINI! The flavors it was supposed to come with were chocolate, caramel, strawberry, vanilla, and sweet condensed milk. Seems like they gave us 2 strawberry filled, unless one was strawberry and the other was cherry? Not exactly sure. Regardless, the churros came out piping hot, were extremely crispy and the fillings were not overly sweet which I appreciated. My favorite was the vanilla, as it resembled almost a custard, followed by the sweet condensed milk. It's a bit on the pricier side, but since they make them to order I'd say it's worth it. Definitely stop by if you're craving churros!

I ended up going in the afternoon to look at what kinds of sweet treats they had to offer. I went with an Ube and Tiramasu Slices for myself -- they were good.

I'm so happy because I got my cheesecake today and it's absolutely freakin amazing. It's everything…read moreI was hoping for and more. I used to get my cheesecake fix from a restaurant in Woodbridge that made it homemade and it was very good, until the restaurant was sold and the new owners aren't continuing to sell it. Well I shouldn't say they aren't selling cheesecake because I'm not sure if they are or not, but I was told the homemade cheesecake will not be available from now on there. So I've been looking high and low, from city to city and going as far as Modesto to find a replacement. I wasn't satisfied still so as I visit new areas one of the 1st things I always check on 1st is if there is a local place that has the "best" cheesecake. I've come across some decent cheesecake but I still hadn't found one as good as my favorite cheesecake in Woodbridge. That is until I came across Jennifer. I was searching on Yelp once again and came across her Yelp page once again and thought it was time to take the plunge and contact Jennifer to order one of her cheesecakes. I hadn't called her yet because there wasn't a reason for me ordering an entire cheesecake and felt like it's a bit much to order myself an entire cheesecake. But after so many failed attempts I felt like it was time, after all maybe I can freeze it for future cravings. I let her know I love crust and was requesting a thicker one. She ended up asking me if I wanted my cheesecake to have a crust on top so that way I'd have crust on the top and bottom. I told her it sounded good and I really appreciated the fact that she took into consideration what I told her I liked. So today I got my cheesecake and I couldn't be any happier. It's creamy just like I prefer and there's definitely a lot of good crust. I'm so happy to have found Jennifer and look forward to getting more from her in the future. From what I saw on Yelp she makes really good treats. If you're looking for great cheesecake or other desserts you really don't need to look any further, I'm positive that you'll be more then happy with what you order from Jennifer. She's also very friendly and of course accommodating obviously. That's better then any bakery I've ever went to. There's nothing better then getting the exact dessert that you've been craving. Happy cheesecake eating to me. Bon Appétit

The phone rang, she answered and took an order over the phone. I waited about 7-8 minutes. Once my order was ready she handed me two boxes, saying to be careful because the bread had just come out of the oven and were extremely hot.

The only issue was the closest one to me (at the time) was their Hollywood location! BUT STOCKTON OPENED UP and I was like ok kind of closer lol honestly, it's perfect because it's no our go-to after an LA trip and we drive through that way going home. I'm not too familiar with the Stockton area, but I'm assuming it's in a downtown location. I like that they have a corner location with a good amount of parking. They have a shared lot and street parking. They have outdoor seating only. They serve GUNTHER'S ICE CREAM! IYKYK. ALWAYS, always get ice cream with your shave ice. Trust. Anywho, service was quick. Staff was welcoming and nice. It's pretty chill in there, too. The quality and quantity of the shave ice is exactly what you'd get if you were to go to Hawaii for Ululani's. Personally, my #1 go-to is Local Motion with snow cap, li hing mui drizzle and the powder. I just love, love the Li Hing Mui flavor!! The more, the better! You can either order one of their set creations or make your own! Don't be nervous to mix and match flavors! So next time you're craving shave ice, please check out Ululani's! The shave ice is smooth and soft, not crunchy ice and the flavor is actually true to its name.

This is a newer addition to our miracle mile and is a family owned business. Please give this local business your support! They have cute tables to sit at out doors but no indoor seating. There is a shade tarp above the tables outside. The service is top notch and the ambiance is adorable! They serve the shaved ice and ice cream in eco friendly bowls with wooden spoons too!
