Frappe Bliss

Amazing! My favorite dessert from my trip. I wish I could go back and try more of their other products.
We got the Formosa Treasure with mango frappé bliss.

4.5
Green tea shaved ice topped with coconut jelly and aloe bits then drizzled with mango sauce and condensed milk. yes, sugar overload but worth it… absolutely worth it. I love the shaved ice because its not too sweet with a subtle bitterness (could use more). Also, the person at the counter was so nice about me changing my mind about 50 times…

Great «snow ice» (Taiwan style). Probably better than Chef Hung downstairs. Not super fast but ok given it’s a food court so you can multitask.
But seriously, what kind of food court place, especially dessert, goes on a break from 2 – 2:30 in the afternoon? We wanted to order another twa bing (shaved ice) or two after our first, but had to get takeout from the aforementioned Chef Hung instead.

I’m a HUGE fan of shaved ice and came here to order Matcha Delight. Matcha Delight ($ 5.50) is the one that comes with rice cakes, shaved ice, red bean and green tea icecream. Service was slow. Staff were too busy making orders and one person was too busy boiling rice cakes for stocking. She probably ran out of them or something.
When I finally got my dessert it was alright. Everything else was good except the fresh and firm mochis (rice cakes) were mixed together. I liked the milk shaved ice, icecream and redbeans were okay.
It was quite refreshing, but wasn’t worth it. I can eat elsewhere for a better deal in my opinion.

CASH ONLY, inside Aberdeen Mall.
Delicious shaved snow, I got to try both the plain with fruit (lychee, mango, strawberries, kiwi and one other fruit, slips my mind now). I also tried the strawberry! Both were delicious and it was a melt in your mouth, creamy taste that I’ve come to enjoy from my visits to both Class 302 and Blockheads Shaver back in LA

I drove up to Richmond for the night market and stumbled upon Aberdeen Centre. In the food court area, I was craving for shaved ice and thought I’d give Frappé Bliss a try. It was priced well and my shaved ice was delicious!

This is quite possibly the best shaved ice I have ever sampled in my lifetime so far. I used to see patrons walking in the food court with colorful flower-​shaped bowls and often wondered what those were. Well, now I know!
Frappé Bliss is tucked inside the food court and serves delicious shaved ice desserts in cute plastic bowls (you can take home the bowls). Their shaved ice is called Frappé, and comes in a variety of flavored ice including lychee, milk, banana, strawberry, green tea and more. You can order from their set menu, or customize your own Frappé by choosing toppings and sauces. The prices range from $ 5 — $ 7. I ordered the Diamond Prince, and loved how the ice was shaved in rectangular thin layers. The ice was so smooth, light, and fluffy that it melted gently in my mouth. I just wished I had received more amount of toppings. I read that other Unilocalers reported inconsistent amounts of toppings depending on who was working the shift. Hopefully, I will receive someone who will be more generous on the dessert for my next purchase.
The Diamond Prince that I bought from the suggested menu was comprised of mango sauce, aloe bits, coconut jelly (not rice balls as written on the menu), and the optional condensed milk. If I can remember correctly, the price came to $ 5.50 for the dessert. I had mine with the Lychee Frappé flavored ice. Most of the Frappé flavors were sold out by the time I was ordering my dessert near closing hours. There is a misprint on their menu about the Diamond Prince, it says it comes with ‘rice balls’, but it doesn’t. Another Unilocaler informed me that Frappé Bliss said it was a printing error. It’s too bad, I love rice balls. Anyway, the dessert was still absolutely delicious and I will return for more.

CASH ONLY.
This place is located in Aberdeen Mall in their famous food court on the top floor. Frappé Bliss sells Taiwanese snow ice. It’s delicious. They shave a block of already flavored ice, so there are no fake syrups like traditional shave ice. The different flavors of snow ice are not overly sweet, and the toppings are fresh. My sister and I had only a limited amount of cash on hand, so we ordered one Dream of Eden and one Thai Sensation. Although the «Eden» is their #1 seller, the Thai Sensation should not be overlooked.
THAI SENSATION
If you like mango sticky rice at Thai restaurants, you MUST get the Thai Sensation. I can’t even remember all the different ingredients, all I know is it was a flavor explosion in my mouth and I am craving this right now. Think mango, coconut milk, milk flavored snow ice, azuki beans, and condensed milk.
If I had more cash, I would have gotten another one.

I’m really picky with my shave/​snow ice because I only like super fine shaved ice.
We ordered the mango shaved ice with lychee and it was delicious!
The ice was shaved exactly how I like it! The lychee pieces that were used were fresh lychee and not from a can.

I came to Aberdeen Mall to have tea with a girlfriend and we did some browsing in the mall. This was one of the stores that we visited. I split a fruit ice with my GF which was refreshing. Customer service was bad which is why this place scores so low sadly. Prices were decent.

This is my favorite place in Aberdeen mall because this is amazing! I love snow ice it is my favorite thing and it is so hard to find places that sell it because lets be honest shaved ice is not the same thing. I love coming here for dessert and I will always be coming back. I think the portions are a perfect amount for the price you pay. What is awesome is that you can either select a set combination or create your own. Since i am not a person who likes everything I keep it simple with just mango frappé and mango topping i only pay a few bucks.
What I didn’t like was that the service was really slow. I know they want to save money by just having one person work at a time but when there are 8 people in line it would have been helpful to have two working. I felt bad for this girl trying to make the frappes and take orders at the same time. Other than that my experience was good.
Also don’t forget to grab a stamp card. If you are an often visitor they have stamp cards that can help you get a free frappé later (if you get enough stamps of course)

In Seattle there is no place that serves up snow ice quite like Frappé Bliss. So I have to drive 3 hours north to Richmond to enjoy this velvety, cold, sweet and yummy treat. Lo and behold, this time around they changed up their serving size. Instead of the styrofoam bowl like before, it’s now in a flower shaped shaved ice cup. Which makes the entire serving smaller than before when it was in the bowl. Arrrrgh! But they got me by the balls, because it’s so damn delicious and elusive for me… I cannot complain even if it has shrunk a little bit. I ate 2 bowls after eating lunch at the food court as usual. Can someone open one in Seattle so I can eat this treat everyday of my life? You Canadians are so lucky you have no idea!

Delicious. Condensed milk on top makes everything better. Green tea ice cream had a good tea flavor and the red beans were cooked to the right texture. Not too mushy or hard. Will eat there again when I am in the area.

Dont believe the hype. Rather take our $ 8 elsewhere. Guess depends on what mood the lady is in, or else she will skimp on your toppings. Pay me and ill make it for you for $ 6

I LOVE shaved ice and this place satisfies my cravings. Whenever I’m in Canada, we make it a must go stop at Aberdeen Mall to get this delicious treat! Parking is a NIGHTMARE, good lord I feel like I always have to pray as we zip through all the humans who can’t park/​back out/​drive. Well worth the horrific parking situation though, we keep coming back regardless!
This is NOT Hawaiian shave ice– it’s not just crushed ice but think of it as actual «shaved ice.» So ribbons on ribbons on fluffy FLAVORED ice with fruits and condensed milk (I can’t have it without this!)
My favorite is A Dream in Eden, it comes with a scoop of mango ice cream, strawberries/​kiwi/​mangos and I love adding grass jelly and condensed milk (I think this was a 10 cent extra charge according to this sticky note I looked at on the register). The Tropical Delight is yummy as well, it has lychee but no ice cream. I personally think the better deal is with the scoop of ice cream, I can’t say no though! The ice cream isn’t knock your socks off, but still compliments the dessert well. You can switch gears and have a non-​mango flavored ice and then have the mango ice cream– so it’s almost like you have two desserts? Does that make sense? Lmao… My foodie brain is always thinking through how I can maximize my food experiences!
So I get the Eden with lychee shaved ice. It’s REALLY good, the mango flavored ice is also amazing! Sometimes if I want a mango overload I just go for the mango ice. There are so many flavors, you can pretty much satisfy the pickiest person. There’s also an option to just select your own toppings– you do not need to pick a pre-​made option. I saw cantaloupe on the menu yesterday along with summer specials in a waffle bowl. Just go with the regular shaved ice because the waffle bowl looks tiny! Maximize your shaved ice experience people!
Service was decent, I paid an extra $ 2 for grass jelly on two orders and had to come back for them to add it. All done in good spirits though but I do have to say that for $ 13, it would be nice if customers could get more ice/​toppings. It’s a bit pricy for what you get but it’s clearly a monopoly since I haven’t been able to find a place to mirror this in the States.
I will be back!!!

This is my absolute FAVORITE place for shaved ice. Every single place that I’ve tried it in Seattle cannot compare because all they have is shitty CRUSHED ICE with nasty, over-​sweetened syrup poured on top. This is the most authentic shaved ice I’ve ever had (minus places in Cali, obviously).
Their shaved ice is SOFT (so soft that it’s a crime that crushed ice can even be called shaved ice) and FLAVORED. IT’S ACTUALLY FLAVORED. And, for a bonus, you can choose between 7 – 10 DIFFERENT FLAVORS!!! I hope this doesn’t come across as sarcastic, but it’s truly amazing that there are so many options! I refuse to eat any shaved ice desserts in Seattle because the selection there is so pathetic.
I love the Fruity Tropical and Dream in Eden with lychee flavored ice. My boyfriend and I always share for some reason, even though we end up inhaling the dessert in 2 minutes flat. You seriously can’t go wrong with getting your dessert from here.
Next time, I’m NOT sharing.

For $ 5.50, I was not expecting them to be so stingy with the ice! It’s ice! Could it hurt to fill the bowl at least half way? The bowl was really shallow and they had barely even filled it up ²⁄₄ of the way. I was not impressed. The ice cream scoop on top was also tiny, equivalent to the size of a mini ice cream scoop. The red bean they use is also really low quality. I have to admit though, the condensed milk they drizzle on the shaved ice is really tasty, but other than that, it was nothing special.

This shaved ice has the strangest appearance — it looks like chunks of durian… but doesn’t taste or smell like it (except if you order the durian flavor haha). Anyway, it’s a pretty solid shave ice place. The actual texture of the ice is flaky and firm, not like the icy kind you see in snow cones and american style shave ice. The flavor was also there; we got green tea and it tasted just like it.
The toppings were also good (We got the formosa delight which comes with red bean, taro, and some kind of fruit like longan). Overall a refreshing treat at a reasonable price. I recommend sharing, though!

Really wanted to try Frappé Bliss before I left Canada, and I was finally able to on my last night! They close about 15 minutes earlier than the food court closes, so be sure to place your order early! The price is pretty decent, but I feel that the prices for the toppings are way too expensive. They have your flavors of shaved snow for $ 3/​$ 4. You can add on different toppings for an extra $ 1 each, I believe. They also have set shaved ice desserts, but I was more interested in the shaved snow!
I ordered a milk and a mango shaved snow. The girl gave us a lot, and we were also able to add our own amount of condensed milk to it. A couple before me ordered three shaved snows, and they used up more than half of the bottle of condensed milk in their snows! The girl helped add the milk, but it wasn’t enough so we had to come back for more.
The snows were very finely shaved and very light in my mouth the minute I ate it. It completely melted away. However, the milk didn’t have much flavor, and because I didn’t have any additional toppings, it was quite plain. The mango was a little better, but honestly, I have had better in California. I prefer them to have a set menu of shaved snow with ingredients that go well together. Other than that, the snow was good, but nothing special.

There’s nothing I love more than good ol’ Hawaiian Shaved ice. I remember always asking the nice guy if I could have an extra pump of sugar, because I’m a fatty like that.
Ok, so I’ve found a shaved ice I love more, and it’s here at Frappé Bliss.
Pure Bliss I tell you. The ice is flaky and melts so beautifully (if you stick out your tongue and look in the mirror you will know what I mean), and the bowl disappears faster than the jello shots in college.
So you pick a shaved ice flavor, then you pick the toppings. Or if you’re indecisive pick one of their pre-​designed creations (which are not cheaper than ordering separately by the way).
Best topping/​ice flavor: Rice balls and the original milk flavor (they don’t have often I find).
When the lady asks if you want condensed milk… say yes.
They have a stamp card that also works at the crêpe place around the corner, it’s definitely worth asking for! You’ll probably be back for more icy bliss.
