Went to the hidden gem in Hilo...lil vintage ice cream parlor, which is right at the entrance of Alii Ice!! They sell the yummiest fresh fruit and favorite flavored paletas... ice cream pies...ice cream...and other frozen treats! So many flavors...need to visit often to try different ones each time. My favorites...lilikoi cream, Mango cream, sweet potatoes (ube) cream, haupia cream, peanut butter & chocolate cream, chocolate mocha and SO MUCH MORE! These are homemade local-style frozen treats... so be sure to go and try it!!

Large selection of peletas and cream ice cream, even the typical shave ice cream is offered. Various flavors and tropical varieties. Employees are very friendly and communicative. Be sure to take a look. It's worth it.

Both the sweet potato and guava paleta were yummy. The sweet potato was very textured. Guava was superb!

At Ali'i Ice, you can sample paletas in a rainbow of colors with a huge variety of tempting flavors! What are paletas? They look like popsicles, but they are way more delicious and satisfying. That's because this traditional Mexican dessert is made from fresh natural fruits such as strawberry and mango and also creamy ingredients like chocolate or peanut butter. Dairy and non-dairy options are both available. My favorite is chocolate + peanut butter, but I'm looking forward to trying the mango cream and green tea latte! They also sell shave ice and traditional ice cream. And the ladies serving you are as sweet as the treats themselves.

Vegetarian options: Paletas have both dairy and non-dairy options. So good for vegans.

Kid-friendliness: Kiddos will LOVE paletas!

An old fashioned ice cream shop is just what anyone needs to chill out- We love Ali'i Ice! They have so many local flavors to choose from: popsicles, shave ice and ice cream galore. We stop here on our weekly Liliuokalani Garden walk. If you haven't stopped here before, you might miss the ice cream counter. The building is low key and might be mistaken for ice service only. Don't be fooled! Cool off at the counter in their air conditioned shop or enjoy the covered seating outdoors.

From the outside, it doesn't really look welcoming, but it's such a gem. Delicious ice creams, fantastic staff. Only the prices doesn't seem Hawaiian: they are actually pretty decent.

Amazing popsicles, ice cream, shave ice, and actual block ice, if you need it. You need to go in the garage door to get to the shop. Wide flavor variety, all great. Your go to destination for frozen treats in Hilo.
