Our passion for providing high-quality shave ice started when we realized there was a need for a more authentic and flavorful shave ice experience in Alaska (believe it or not.)

We look forward to creating a fun and enjoyable experience for our customers, whether you're cooling off on a hot summer day or looking for a sweet treat to enjoy with friends and family.

We've been searching for a new favorite spot ever since. This just might be it! The soft ice cream in the bottom was magical! I wouldn't get it any other way.

Can't wait to take the kids with us next time! Will drive from North Salt Lake anytime for this!

It's hard not to compare Karie Anne's--which has been appearing in Utah after franchising from…read moreIdaho-- to established local Italian Ice and Frozen Custard brand Zeppe's. Especially so when KA's prices are higher, texture less smooth, and some flavors weaker. Kudos to KA for a welcoming grand opening event and hustling the buzz on local social media. We went for the large (16 oz) Gelati which lets you choose two flavors of Italian ice, one for each layer, and one among two or three frozen yogurt flavors to be 'sandwiched' between them. The vanilla frozen yogurt was flavorful and creamy, and possibly a slightly larger ratio of yogurt to ice than Zeppe's. This is hard to say because the portioning ratio between our first two cups varied quite a bit. Yet it is really the not-quite-as-smooth texture of the Italian Ice, as well as the flavor with not as much "pop" nor "punch" on the whole that left us a bit disappointed. The Mango and Peach flavors were reasonably flavorful enough, though they tasted more sweet than tangy. The Piña Colada and Tiger's Blood flavors were noticeably weak in coconutty flavor. Not a bad treat, mind you, yet when a 16-oz KA Gelati runs $8.50 (not including extra if you add a topping like caramel), and Zeppe's 'Gelatas' are $6.55 for the same size, I'm not exactly sure the differentiating advantage. We hit Zeppe's after our Karie Anne's hot-sweaty-sunshine food truck visit was fresh in our minds, and we thought the Z location has more room; more comfortable and quantity of inside and outdoor seating; bigger menu; better prices; smoother Italian Ice texture; more flavors; stronger-brighter flavors; and more seasonal specials -- leaving us thinking that we'll probably not visit KA's nearly as much. Neither brand's retail space is designed to put the visual spectacle of choosing among colorful iced desserts on sale like a real Italian gelateria, but that's a lesser visit-experience quibble.

On a 90 degree day in Layton, we swung by Hokulia to pick up a few cups of shave ice. As we walked…read moreup to the truck, we saw a sign that stated that they were out of condensed cream and when I ordered their "short board" size, I was told that they were out of the small cups. We ordered their classic combinations - tigers blood and blue hawaii with coconut ice cream on one and kiwi, lime, and apple with mango sorbet on the other one. Our treats were made quickly and although they had a few seats there, we decided to take it to go. When I dug in, I realized that the ice cream was haphazardly scooped in an uneven fashion and it was vanilla ice cream and not the coconut that I'd ordered and which was written on the side of the cup. As the ice melted, I sipped a little of the syrup and it tasted very artificial. Having had my share of Hawaiian shave ice on Oahu, I was hoping for a little reminder of that experience here. Unfortunately the lack of snow caps, syrup flavor, and incorrect ice cream didn't do it for me. I tried to call back to see if I could get the ice cream issue corrected but the listed number went straight to voicemail. I'll pass on this one next time.

There are many elements that make a shave ice beyond amazing and I have a checklist to see if a shave ice place meets my requirements. The Daily Shave Ice did not disappoint! The first item I look for is flavor. The Daily Shave Ice has a variety of flavors, including sugar free. They have the classic flavors (tigers blood) to the tropical flavors (mango) that I always order on my shave ice. Bonus points if they offer additional items to add to it, like ice cream on the bottom and condensed milk on top. The Daily Shave offers both and I absolutely recommend it. Together, it totally elevates the shave ice. The second item is the quality of ice. This ice was very smooth and snow like. The softer the ice, the better it is. What I wasn't expecting was the size. They really pack on the ice! I ordered a small and it was massive. It was a fun surprise when I picked it up at the window. Overall, this place knows how to make a shave ice. The ice is soft, the flavors are awesome and the size is huge. A great treat on a summer day.

If you ever get the chance look for them on facebook as they always post where they'll be located throughout summer. They also will come to your event, just give them a call. You will not be disappointed

They have quite a few flavor options to choose from and the smallest size is plenty for one person. They also offer upgrades that are worth it. I'd recommend the upgrades but of course they are not free so consider that. I loved the coconut I've cream in the center of the ice. It's had good flavor and just enough coconut pieces. Also get the sno cap. It is condensed milk drizzled in top, that steps it up a level. Some of the syrup flavor were not very strong so it was difficult to distinguish the flavors. The colors were bright though.

I ordered a little cow size, with the two types of cream: sweet cream, and ice cream. I had the orange dreamsicle flavoring. It wasn't bad. I'd say... Average. For my treat there was an extra charge, so mine came to $3.50. I'm really ok with the prices, and the shaved ice you get. But there are two things about this stand that give me pause about going there again. #1- The gal working the stand was the opposite of friendly. She wasn't pleasant. #2- Location. For this summer, they've moved the stand to a parking lot on the North side of 200. It is closer to the splash park, BUT it's also closer to the industrial sized dumpster the nearby business use. P.U. It was stinky! We ate our shaved ice's on the picnic benches outside the stand (because there was no way my kids were getting in my car with them), and we kept getting whiffs of the garbage smell. Unless they move the stand away from the trash receptacle, I'll probably be driving a little farther down the road and hitting up one of the (many) other shaved ice stands that are open for summer.

The teenage girl at the stand was really nice and helpful, she explained what flavors like Spongebob, Barbie, and Pokemon tasted like and was really patient as we ordered 7 shaved ices (all different flavors too!). We ended going back 5 times this week because they were soooooooo yummy! All the other days we came back a different lady was working and she was just as nice and friendly as the first girl. The prices were reasonable and so many choices too! You can also add ice cream or sweet cream to your shaved ice, both were delicious! My favorite was the strawberry cheesecake with sweet cream. My husband liked the root beer with ice cream. The kids favorites were cotton candy, Pokemon (it was red and fruity), and Barbie (this one was pink and sweet). They also have punch cards, which in the one week we were in Utah we went through 2! We would highly recommend stopping by and trying this place out if you are in the neighborhood.
