Kona Ice Beach Cities' weblog

A Week Of Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving week to all of you Orange County-ites! We at Kona Ice would like to take the time to thank all of you for your support and patronage of Kona Ice … we have greatly enjoyed making your parties great, providing refreshment to your little league or school sports teams, rewarding hard work at company parties, celebrating milestones with family and birthday parties … not to mention being able to give some of our earnings back to the communities as well! It’s been a great year … and we are so very thankful for all of you!

We are still going strong through the lean months of winter … so if you happen to get tired of the same old pumpkin and pecan pies?? Hit us up, we’ll be more than happy to swing by with some shaved ice … or holiday SNOW!

Kona Ice Beach Cities serves all the Beach cities, as well as some inland locations as well, including: Long Beach, Seal Beach, Huntington Beach, Westminster, Garden Grove, Newport Beach, Fountain Valley, Costa Mesa, and Laguna Beach … as well as other neighboring cities. We have two other trucks as well that cover almost ALL of Orange County … if you want us at your OC event, we are THERE with cool Hawaiian music, a friendly smile, and that sweet refreshment that is SHAVE ICE!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Some people think of Shave Ice as a summer treat … we here at Kona Ice like to think of it as a year ’round extravaganza!! Shave Ice is the same wonderful, fluffy texture as freshly fallen snow … what are the holidays without snow, and where else are you going to find it in Orange County?? Book us for your holiday events, fairs, or parties … and “Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!”

Beat the Heat with a Shave Ice Treat!


WOW! Who would have thought we’d be seeing 90 degree days in November?? Somehow Turkey and Stuffing doesn’t seem as appetizing in sweltering heat! I know one thing that is AWESOME in hot weather though … drum roll … SHAVE ICE!! We’ve been canvassing neighborhoods throughout Orange County through this past lovely week. We sure would love some events as well … we know that a lot of people don’t plan for hot weather in the late fall … but since the hot weather is here? Give us a call, text, or e-mail and we will bring one of our trucks right on over … it could be a school event, birthday party, office party, or hey … maybe you just want to rent the truck out for a holiday snowball fight! Whatever the occasion … we are ready to dish out some sweet shave ice action!
