Sugar ’n Spice has been a Balboa Island landmark since our doors first opened to the public way back in 1945. Our shop is the one-and-only “Original”, being the very first frozen banana and Balboa Bar shop on the Island. In December 2017, Orange Coast Magazine featured us in their Icons of OC issue. 2015 marked Sugar ‘n Spice’s 70th Anniversary, and as much as times and fashions have changed over the years our customers can always count on each and every banana and Balboa Bar being made-to-order, hand-dipped for them, twice, in milk chocolate, then rolled in the favorite toppings of their choice. The result is the same now as it was over 72+ years ago: delicious treats and our customers’ smiling faces…and nothing makes us happier! *Now we offer Nationwide Shipping through Goldbelly!

I was excited to finally try a frozen banana from Sugar n Spice. The banana was a bit expensive at $8 but I thought it was enjoyable and more filling than what I expected. Although I probably...
