Punch Buggy Shave Ice, operating for the past five years in Louisville, is preparing to soon start offering its icy tastes of Hawaii in neighboring Lafayette.
Punch Buggy owner Neige LaRue grew up bouncing between Kailu-Kona, Hawaii and the mainland before she moved to Colorado almost 10 years ago. In that time travelling in the mainland, she realized she missed authentic Hawaiian shave ice, so she figured she would do it herself.
LaRue noted that shave ice is different than a snow cone. A snow cone has crushed, coarse ice as the base, while shave ice is thinly sliced ice with a softer, fluffier texture. Punch Buggy has traditional flavors like strawberry, cherry and lime but LaRue also wanted to include traditional Hawaiian flavors that might be harder to find on the mainland like ube and yuzu citrus flavors or haupia whipped cream and macadamia nut ice cream.
She also noted that Punch Buggy also has flavors of the week featuring lilikoi and guava. She said that, as a mom, she was motivated to have treats that were as natural as they could be and also allergy friendly. All the syrups Punch Buggy uses are made in-house with 100% pure cane sugar, and no artificial colors or flavors.
