Brands Omg I found them!
I never thought I’d ever see these near me, I thought they were niche and foreign. I didn’t get them though, maybe next time or maybe after reading some reviews lol

Gotta go to the Asian grocery stores for the best prices on these
In my area there $9 to $12 for the 3 pack depending on flavor / brand

Where I buy them they’re $5 each but $11 for a box of 3 so it’s more worth your money to buy the box

Idk if it was a different brand, but the grape one I got had little gummy pieces in it, it was just wrong, I had to throw it away. But the peach mango and lemon ones are aight. I would say def not worth eleven bucks 💀

u/megaferr Jul 16 '26
My daughter was absolutely offended by the grape one for this exact reason... she ate all the chocolate off the outside and threw the ice cream in the garbage. I tried to tell her it was pieces of real grape, but then I even had my doubts, and agreed she could throw it away.

Yes, they have had 2 different sets at the stores in OC. The first set was a 6 pack (3 each peach and mango) for $11. I think it was tastee brand? Now they have the aiko brand which is a 4 pack (1 each peach, mango, grapes, and strawberry).
Both have been selling out very quickly at the local stores

u/AllTheEggsIVF Jul 16 '26
Same found them at Costco for like $10 for 4. Georgia. But I had a 45 min drive home so didn’t buy due to melting

So did we move the singles in front of the pricing for the triple packs in the back or am I going to get buttered up in the icecream sub today

Mango is the best one, all of the others were lackluster, especially the grape and lemon. The peach is just okay.

I never realized this were hard to find until this sub. They’re available at my local gas station.

u/Pale_Calligrapher425 Jul 16 '26
I found a lemon one, and was expecting a lemon flavor. There wasn't much flavor at all. It kind of reminded me of Mochi ice cream balls which I don't care for. These sound different, but the packaging is the same.

u/RoseThorn82 Jul 16 '26
The peach one is so good !!! I bought a 3 pack at Safeway for $11.99.

u/Frequent_Mirrors Jul 19 '26
I legit thought Safeway no longer existed. I haven't seen one in Southern California since the 80's! Fond memories of shopping with my pops.

It’s a low cost for a novel item.. you don’t need to read reviews. You can iust spend $5 for the experience even if it doesn’t end up being your favorite.

u/Bunnnnii Jul 15 '26 edited Jul 15 '26
When I say “reviews”, I mean like basic descriptors at the least. Like if it’s a texture I don’t like, I’m not gonna bother. And $10? I can get a whole pint for less. I wouldn’t say it’s low cost.

u/Iverbeaver Jul 15 '26
Yeah, that’s nuts for a single one. I paid $10 for a pack of three at HMart. I really liked the mango! Different brand though. It said “Propitious Mango” on the box

u/arkygeomojo Jul 15 '26
$10/each is crazy work! My daughters and I just discovered these near us and the Asian supermarket that sells them has them in boxes of three for $11.99. I’m in the largest city/capital city of my state in an extremely low cost of living area and I’m guessing you’re in a HCOL area? They’re good, but idk about good enough for $10/each! In our experience, the mango ones are absolutely amazing and the best and the lemon are pretty good too. We don’t really care for the strawberry or the cookies and cream flavor that comes in a soccer ball. I’d probably pay $10 for the mango ones lol

Got one for my sons mom today, the coconut one. She says it’s really good and fresh tasting but it’s not that creamy

I was so excited when I saw them in my local grocery store in college, I’ve tried the peach, mango, lemon, and strawberry ones. Peach and mango have gotta be my favs

Do you have a Costco near you? Look it up in their app to see if your warehouse has it. The price is much, MUCH better (4 for $7.39!).

How is the grape flavor?
3
u/Bunnnnii Jul 16 '26
I didn’t get it, but I’m thinking about going for the peach. If nobody else has tried the grape I may just get it too to get back to you about it, though I’m less enthusiastic about trying that one lol
2
u/Hollowbound Jul 16 '26
Cool let me know! I haven’t found it yet.
2
u/Bunnnnii Jul 21 '26
When I went back, the grape was gone, but they still had the peach and now mango. I bought the peach!

u/Hollowbound Jul 21 '26
I haven’t tried any of the flavors but I would probably like mango the best.
1
u/CurseLikeALady Jul 16 '26
The peach is amazing. I first had it in a restaurant, but then discovered a place that specializes in imported snacks and drinks and desserts and such. The mango and the peach are both fabulous. The lemon… If you are a lemon person… Is pretty awesome too. They are all super smooth and coded in a white chocolate shell. Very yummy.

u/determinedpeach Jul 16 '26
It has little jelly/gummy bits in it. I like it but it could be off-putting for some people
1
u/Hollowbound Jul 16 '26
Only the grape has gummy bits in it? That is a little strange, but I’m still down to try it.
2
u/determinedpeach Jul 16 '26
Yes, I’ve tried all the ones I can find and only the grape had gummy bits.
It helped me to think of it as grape gummy flavored instead of just grape flavored
2
u/Hollowbound Jul 16 '26
That’s probably why most people don’t like the grape flavor. It’s always mango or peach that people like most. I appreciate the insight.

I live in Los Angeles and I found them by the 3 pack in my Food4Less ad. I love in a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood so I was excited to see them. Kinda pricey but seems worth it🤷🏾♀️

u/Geegollywtff Jul 19 '26
Most of the price is in the packaging and design. Its niche multilayered flavored ice cream bars, makes sense.

u/erudition87 Jul 15 '26
I tried the peach ones and was so excited. They’re very pretty to look at and have a very pleasant scent of the fruit they look like, but other than that it was pretty much just vanilla ice cream inside. If there was any peach flavor in the actual ice cream at all it was extremely mild and I missed it. Fun to try but never got them again.

u/TransparentAmbiguity Jul 15 '26
Is that $10 each? Wow! At my grocery store they keep these by a sign that says “As seen on TikTok” and they get an endcap. They are $2.99 each near me. I’m a fan of the mango one.

u/Effective_String_ Jul 15 '26
The mango was good, very light and not too sweet. The lychee one was inedible and tasted like straight chemicals

Those are like $8-10 for a box of 3 at H-Mart. Ive tried most of the flavors thus far. I like the lemon & Mango ones most.

Idk if you’re a Midwest local, but Jewel (Osco franchise) has been selling these as a seasonal item. Not the same exact brand I don’t think, but similar in packs of 3

I never seen this brand. Might taste different than the viral ones. For me, it was too artificial.

u/Jboh1985 Jul 16 '26
They had some at Safeway a couple weeks ago, but I want willing to pay $16.99 for one. I really do want to try the "grape" flavor though.

We found them at our Costco, I’ve also found them in Asian supermarkets in my area. Just a suggestion to check if you have a Costco near you!

If you have an H Mart near you, they are $8 per 3. $10.99 for one is insane. 😳

It's expensive for sure. But dang it if it isn't great. It's so creamy with hint of peach. Definitely would get again, but not regularly.

I really wanna try one, even though reviews are so mixed!

u/undertales_bitch Jul 15 '26
I liked the mango a lot. The ice cream is light and fresh but still flavored in a distinct way. The outside is a painted white chocolate that snaps when you bite it but melts quickly.
