How to Make Special Occasions Sweeter with Mamita’s Ices

Whether it’s a wedding, a neighborhood block party, or a big cultural celebration, there’s something special about sharing a treat that everyone loves. 

At Mamita’s Ices, we believe flavor has the power to bring people together — and our individually packaged ices make it easy to add a refreshing twist to any event. Here are a few ways to turn memorable moments into even sweeter ones with a little help from Mamita’s Ices:

WEDDINGS & SHOWERS

Looking for a fun way to treat your guests during cocktail hour or on the dance floor? Mamita’s Ices offer a playful, nostalgic touch with bold flavors that match the joy of your big day. They’re easy to serve and mess-free, making them perfect for wedding celebrations, bridal showers, and baby showers. 

Want to take it up a notch? Choose flavors that match your color palette and display the ices in mini coolers or a cart with custom signs for a fun twist on a traditional dessert station. They’re also a great late-night treat to help keep the dance floor energy going — summer weddings and showers will never be the same!

BIRTHDAYS & FAMILY CELEBRATIONS

Whether you’re planning a kid’s birthday party, quinceañera, anniversary, reunion, or other family-friendly event, Mamita’s Ices are always a hit. No scooping, no sticky hands—just grab and enjoy. Parents love them because they’re made with real fruit and cane sugar, and kids love them because… well, they’re delicious.

Want to go all in on the birthday theme? Our Bizcocho Cream ice (inspired by classic Dominican cake) is a sweet, party-ready option that tastes like a celebration all on its own!

Our recomendación? Set up a DIY “ice station” with different flavors for different age groups. Opt for more unique flavors like tamarind and batata for the grownups, and classic favorites like coconut, lemon-lime, and (of course) bizcocho for the younger crowd.

CULTURAL CELEBRATIONS & COMMUNITY EVENTS

For many, our ices aren’t just a frozen dessert, they’re reminders of home, family, and tradition. We’re proud of where we come from and we love showing up for the communities that helped shape Mamita’s. From the annual Dominican Day Parade to neighborhood block parties and street festivals across New York, our ices have been part of these moments for years.

Planning something in your neighborhood? Bring Mamita’s! People always find their favorite flavor, and someone’s abuela usually has a story to go with it.

BACKYARD BBQS & HOLIDAY COOKOUTS

Nothing beats a backyard BBQ with good food, music, and people you love. Mamita’s Ices fit right in at any casual get-together, especially when the grill is hot and the drinks are flowing. Just pop a few boxes in the cooler and let everyone grab their favorite flavor. Coconut Cream, Piña Colada, and Passion Cream (Parcha/Passion Fruit) are always some of the first to go.

Planning a holiday gathering or special event inside during the cooler months? Versatile flavors like Coconut Cream also make a great addition or substitute in warm drink recipes.

CORPORATE EVENTS & TEAM GATHERINGS

Planning a company picnic or a team-building day? Mamita’s Ices are an easy, budget-friendly option for large group celebrations. They’re individually packaged for easy distribution, and they store well in coolers for off-site events.

Bonus: It doesn’t have to be a special occasion to enjoy Mamita’s Ices. Every day can feel like employee appreciation day with Mamita’s in the office. Whether you’re welcoming a new team member or just taking a midday snack break with coworkers, it’s a fun and refreshing way to break the ice (literally) and boost morale at work.
