Born in Sacramento, CA on October 31, 2013. Vampire Penguin set out to create a lighter way to indulge. Our shaved snow is made from a creamy frozen blend, delicately shaved into airy layers that melt into smooth, sweet perfection. It’s a dessert that feels decadent but never heavy — an experience that’s as unforgettable as it is refreshing.

Snow Much Love

Families, foodies, and first-timers all agree. Vampire Penguin turns dessert into an experience worth melting for.

"Shaved snow is unlike anything else I’ve had before — not quite ice cream, not quite shaved ice, but fluffy, rich, and topped with the most beautiful creations."

The Story of Vampire Penguin

Every great dessert starts with a dream. Ours began with one curious penguin who believed snow could be something magical. Something that could bring people together.


Watch how Vampire Penguin transformed a simple idea into a family of sweet creations and a community of dessert lovers united by the joy of shaved snow magic.
