What people say

Stella Jean's Ice Cream on E 17th Street in Costa Mesa is a must-visit for anyone who loves small-batch, creatively delicious ice cream. This ice cream shop offers plant-based options that are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. In fact, Stella Jean's has been recognized as one of the top ten ice cream shops in the USA by USA Today.

Their Calamansi Creamsicle (v & gf) ice cream is a seasonal treat that elevates the classic creamsicle pops we all grew up with. The high-quality Madagascar vanilla provides the perfect balance to the calamansi, a citrus hybrid predominantly cultivated in the Philippines.

For those looking for something more unique, try their Tahini + Miso Caramel (gf) ice cream. This savory-sweet treat features tahini ice cream with ribbons of miso caramel and bits of crispy sesame brittle sprinkled throughout. It's complex and truly one-of-a-kind.

And if you're looking for a classic flavor with a twist, their Strawberry Oat Crumble (v + gf) is a must-try. This pint belongs in your freezer!

Overall, Stella Jean's Ice Cream is a gem in Costa Mesa that should not be missed by any ice cream lover.
