20 June 2026 at 10:06

If you’ve got a trip planned to come to the Disneyland Resort this summer, you’re probably trying to figure out where the best spot to get a frozen treat is!

Happy Ice!

Well, a brand-new snack stand just opened at Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort, and this might be the spot to cool you down this summer. We had to check out this new stand, and we’re bringing you our full review. Is this worth going out of your way for? Let’s find out!

The new snack spot at Downtown Disney is called Happy Ice. The brand sells Italian ice, and it’s known for its fruity flavors and frozen desserts. Did you know that this is the first permanent Black-owned dessert company in the shopping and dining district at Disneyland Resort?!

Happy Ice!

They had so many flavors to choose from! We’re warning you, you might stand there for a while trying to figure out which flavor is speaking to you.

So many flavors!

We ended up getting two frozen treats, starting with the Time Machine for $12.00. The treats do come in different sizes, and we ended up going with a large.

Time Machine

This tasted like an elevated DOLE Whip! It’s so incredibly refreshing and tasty. The texture is like a smooth gelato with a slight crunch like shaved ice and a tang like a sorbet. It’s popular for a reason, and the flavors just go so well together.

This is delicious!

You can taste each of the flavors separately, yet altogether, if that makes sense!? A large is deceivingly huge and a perfect shareable size…or you can keep it all to yourself! We’re giving this a perfect 5/5, and we would definitely get this flavor again!

This was amazing!

The other flavor we got was the Rainbow Gelati for $15, also in a large. This one had a scoop of Joy-Lati, which is the ice cream you can get on top of any of their flavors. Rainbow is their signature flavor because it has all their fruit flavors in one!

Rainbow Gelati

It’s absolutely delicious and refreshing! The texture is smooth and creamy, and the Joy Lati ice cream on top adds a milky flavor. It wasn’t necessarily our favorite combo, but if you like Paletas, you would love it! The rainbow flavor itself was a 5/5, but it drops a little to a 4/5 with the Joy-Lati.

This was really good!

You can never go wrong with a frozen treat, and these ones are TASTY! While you’re visiting Disneyland Resort this summer, we highly recommend you stop by here and try out some of their flavors. For more Disney food reviews, make sure to follow us at the Disney Food Blog.

A NEW Snack Spot Is Opening TOMORROW at Downtown Disney

18 June 2026 at 15:29

Disneyland’s Downtown Disney has gone through some SERIOUS changes. We’ve seen restaurants and shops close, while new restaurants and shops have opened. Even Marceline’s Confectionery went away to make way for The Wonderful World of Sweets (and honestly, we LOVE the new sweets shop).

We recently passed on the news about a new snack stand coming to Downtown Disney, called Happy Ice. Well, BIG news…Happy Ice is opening sooner than you may think…as in TOMORROW.

Planning guide for the ultimate Disney vacation

That’s right, Happy Ice will be opening its Downtown Disney cart tomorrow, June 19th, which is also Juneteenth. Happy Ice was founded by Lemeir Mitchell and is a Los Angeles Black-owned Philadelphia Italian ice brand known for its fruity flavors and frozen desserts. Happy Ice’s opening in Downtown Disney will mark the first permanent Black-owned dessert company in the shopping and dining district.

To celebrate its grand opening, the first 50 people who order at Happy Ice will get a FREE Happy Ice T-Shirt, while the next 50 will get a FREE Happy Ice tote bag. The cart opens at 11 A.M. and will stay open until 11 P.M. So head on over to Downtown Disney early to grab a delicious treat AND some freebies! Here’s a first look at the cart in Downtown Disney:

You’ll be able to enjoy Happy Ice’s first all-natural menu, with treats made with real fruit, pure cane sugar, and premium ingredients. You’ll also be able to order the JOY-LATI layered dessert with Italian ice, vanilla sweet cream, sauces, and fresh fruit with flavors like banana pudding and strawberry shortcake. We’re already drooling!
