Too Sweet

Too Sweet is my go to spot for any chocolate or frozen yogurt cravings. I am always satisfied 10 000%
Their frozen banana is to die for!
Balboa bars, always amazing!
Chocolate dipped pretzels, so delicious!
Carmel apples with so many options, unbelievable!
And so many more yummy choices! Definitely recommend if you’re on the island!

Very nice little shop and has tons of sweet options. I had the froyo with peanut butter and sugar free vanilla, yummy! Parking is not so easy small street parking and it seems to be busy most of the time.
The building is very clean and it appears that the machines are cleaned regularly. Staff was nice and helpful.

First time trying a famous Balboa Island frozen banana! There were many other chocolate goodies but we wanted to keep it traditional. What also caught my eye was the jar of turtle gummies… they looked super cute as their shells were different colored. I will have to try those next time and see how they compare to other gummy snacks I have had (mostly gummy worms).
Back to the banana, I liked how there were options on the toppings. My husband chose the almonds and his brother chose the peanuts. I tried both and they were equally satisfying. The frozen banana came out to about 4 bucks but it was plenty for one person. In fact, my husband and I shared a banana and it was enough to satisfy my craving.
The location is in the heart of the Balboa shopping strip and there are tables and benches right outside so you can sit and enjoy your dessert. For all you froyo fans out there, this location was attached to a self-​serve frozen yogurt spot so you have plenty of dessert options!
Will definitely be back. There was another banana stand next to this shop but there was always a long line so I will probably just go back here again since I’m not sure how much better the banana can get.
Parking is difficult, thought, so be sure to prepare for that! We got lucky this time, someone was leaving a spot right when we drove by. Good luck!

First off, if you’re visiting Balboa island and you’re not stopping by Too Sweet, you’re not doing it right! The balboa bars are to die for. Fresh ice cream dipped in home made chocolate, topped in whatever your heart desires (you can even «double dip» if you feel so inclined ;) !! I took home a cinnamon sugar caramel apple (which tastes just like an apple pie omg! Must have!!), some of the in house fudge, and assorted chocolates. This gem of a chocolate shop + yogurt shop are a welcoming novelty to the spirit of Balboa Island. Offering good vibes and quality sweets. PS — grab a few assorted goods to take home and try, you will not regret it.

Great Balboa Bar, even if it isn’t the original. Kids had a fun time looking at their fairly extensive selection of chocolates and candy. They are connected to the frozen yogurt joint, so you there is a healthier option for the kids too. Hope this place sticks around, because the chocolate on the chocolate dipped whatever was great!

Omg! The almond turtles are to die for The chocolate is homemade and delicious. The frozen yogurt offers an assortment of delicious favors. The service is excellent as well

These guys have the best chocolate on the island, Balboa that is! Tonight we tried the caramel toffee apple, chocolate caramel dipped marshmallows and a Balboa bar… everything was awesome. The owners and staff are amazing too. You can tell they love what they are doing. We will definitely be back.

Chose to get a frozen banana here instead of waiting in line at the other two places down the road. What a good choice! I got the chocolate dipped with ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ toffee crunch and peanuts. The banana was fresh and the chocolate was much higher quality than the competitors. DELICIOUS!

Being that I’m such a chocoholic, I felt like I was in chocolate heaven! There were so many scrumptious treats in there, I didn’t know what I wanted to try first. I opted for the Carmel Apple dipped in chocolate and rolled in coconut. When Chris heard that I loved coconut he offered to make me one double dipped in coconut What! Extra Coconut ! Now that’s an offer I can’t refuse and it was delicious! Next time I’m trying the frozen banana dipped in chocolate

Love Too Sweet! Great location and the owner Nadia is such a nice person! I suggest everyone on Balboa Island come visit Too Sweet!

****Chicolate Dipped, Toffee Encrusted, Rainbow Sprinkled Frozen Banana!****
Banana Row is a block or two of shops serving up Chocolate dipped frozen bananas. This shop is a bit different in that they also are a yogurt and a chocolate shop. The shop is split in two. One side is yogurt and the other has a large chocolate and candy display. Behind the counter is where the prize sits… chocolate dipped, toffee encrusted, and sprinkle laden frozen banana!
~Chocolate Dipped, Toffee & Sprinkle Banana– 4
Stars!
The frozen bananas are ripe and dipped in a quality chocolate. The toppings include sprinkles and toffee. The chocolate is good. The rainbow sprinkles have a nice flavor. The toffee is the show stopper. Excellent quality and taste, the toffee was an excellent choice with the chocolate dipped banana. I did a ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ combo with the rainbow sprinkles.
The shop also sells chocolate and this may explain the quality toppings. I also got a giant Oreo.
While there are many choices for the frozen banana, this one is my favorite.
I am a fan!
Too Sweet, Newport Beach… another reason the OC is the best place to live!

Order the dark chocolate peanut butter bucket. You won’t be disappointed. We stay in Newport every summer for a week and come here to get our peanut butter buckets 3 – 4 times during our stay. So so yummy!

Very tasty chocolate covered ice cream bar. No waxy aftertaste like most covered bars. Also… delicious covered caramels of all sort. Nicely priced as a bonus. Many choices here for candy and ice cream… this is the best I have had yet.

This coming from a local… Too Sweets’ frozen banana is the best in balboa (island or peninsula). The use of good quality chocolate and toppings covering a NOT rock hardened banana, all make this a superior dessert experience (at least in terms of this island classic).

I stopped by Too Sweet for a little dessert after dinner. I saw they had hand dipped milk chocolate covered strawberries, but I’m not a milk chocolate fan. I asked if he had any white chocolate ones.
The very friendly employee offered to freshly dip some for me while I wait a few minutes. I told him I only wanted one and he replied that it was no problem. He got right to it and started melting the white chocolate.
While we waited for the coating to set on my strawberry, I order a couple other things. I asked to get a few pieces of milk chocolate honeycomb and dark chocolate dipped orange peel for my mom. I gave her the candy a few days later. She loved the orange peel, but said that honeycomb had started to get a little stale.
Back to my dipped strawberry. It was worth waiting for. Super yummy. They offer all kinds of sweets from truffles to custom ordered frozen bananas and ice cream bars. The store is also adjoined to a Tutti Frutti frozen yogurt shop. I definitely recommend stopping by for your sweet fix while you’re on Balboa Island.

The frozen banana was amazing and a true deal at 4 bucks!!!
A balboa island staple and they never disappoint!!! Next time you are in the piece of heaven … Be sure to grab a local treat!!!

The most amazing peanut butter bucket ever! It is always something to look forward to when on the island! Never a disappointment

Best frozen banana I have ever had. They don’t put wax in the chocolate like the other guys do down the street. They also have a variety of baked goods, chocolate items, and are connected to frozen yogurt options.
Be sure to get the toffee crunch. I don’t even like toffee but it totally works on this dessert treat. $ 3 Sweet frozen (but not too cold) coated in perfect chocolate and then finished with crunchy salted toffee. Cant imagine a better Spring treat while walking down the street.

Yummy for the frozen banana!
If you’re walking down Marine Ave., you’ll notice quite a few places offering Frozen Bananas and Balboa Bars.
However, I believe this one stands out from the others because they are also chocolatiers and offer high quality chocolate to dip your banana or bar! They also offer many toppings and you can choose 2 per item.
The taste of the chocolate was definitely rich!

Came to Balboa Island to go try some of the famous Balboa bars.
We were definitely not disappointing! Stumbled upon this place while walking down the street and got the balboa bar with chocolate oreos. It was AMAZING. The chocolate bar paired very well with the oreos and overall it didn’t turn out so sweet. AND the chocolate that they dip the bar in is just sumptuous. They will give you a carton to eat it on so don’t worry if you are messy!
Only downside is that they only take cash for purchases under 4 dollars, just be aware. I’d definitely come here again though!
