There’s Always Room for Pudding

Rice Cream Puddings Opens

Most college care packages overflow with candy, cookies, and cash.

Not yours.

Abuela sent Styrofoam coolers brimming with croquettes, Cuban sandwiches, and arroz con leche.

Now that the deliveries have stopped, quell your homesickness at the recently opened Rice Cream Puddings.

On the second level of The Shops at Sunset Place, the freestanding cart takes the Cuban classic to a new level. Its blended version of the creamy rice comes in loads of flavors (somewhere, your abuela gasps).

Choose from an ice cream parlor-worthy variety — tropical mango, berries feast, Argentinean dulce de leche, Cuban guava, rum raisin, and more. (Toppings include M&Ms, cookies, nuts, and fruit.)

There’s also a low-sugar option and, for the traditionalists, tried-and-true cinnamon flavor.

Gracias a dios!
