Gift Tips
- Try the avocado-based flavors (avocado honey or avocado vanilla) — they’re noted for tasting like fresh avocado and a silky texture.
- Order the brown butter chocolate caramel for a contrast of creamy ice cream and toffee/caramel bits for extra texture.
- Pick the orange honey when available — it’s bright and refreshing and many customers seek it out; it’s also offered in pints sometimes.
- Buy a pint to take home if you find a favorite; several rotating flavors and some sorbets/vegan options are sold in pint containers.
- Plan your visit later in the day to sample more of the rotating flavors on offer, and ask staff for recommendations about what’s freshest.

Year Established2012
à la minute is an ice cream shop in downtown Redlands, CA that creates made-to-order frozen desserts using liquid nitrogen. The shop is known for its organic ice cream base and a frequently changing lineup of flavors developed with local ingredients.
- Ambiance: Small, lively downtown Redlands shop with limited indoor space, outdoor seating across the street, and an energetic counter-side experience watching ice cream being made.
- Cuisine: Nitrogen-frozen ice cream made from a 100% organic base with rotating, locally sourced flavors, plus sorbets and occasional vegan options.
- Highlights: Liquid-nitrogen preparation, partnerships with local suppliers, unique flavors like avocado and brown butter, and waffle cones that many customers praise.
Customers can watch staff prepare each order on the spot, which adds an interactive touch to the visit. Seating inside is limited, but there are outdoor tables and benches nearby for enjoying a scoop or a cone.
The menu mixes familiar options with unexpected combinations — think avocado, orange honey, chocolate lavender, and brown butter variants — plus sorbets and occasional vegan flavors. The team often collaborates with local producers to keep flavors fresh and seasonal.
Service is friendly and efficient; the shop moves quickly even when busy. Pints and specialty cones are available for take-home, making it easy to share their flavors with friends or enjoy later.
