Feature Friday: Frost City

Welcome to Frost City! This sweet spot was the founder of snow here in Hawaii (behind Mauna Kea of course ;)). The local dessert shop located on Beretania has changed the 'ice cream' experience forever. Here you will not find classic flavors or items, instead you will be treated with unique desserts all the way from Taiwan. Snow is a very healthy mix between ice cream and Shave Ice. Because it is made with real fruit and very little sugar it is a perfect treat that won't leave you feeling guilty.
