Special Events Ice
Planning a special event? Don’t let ice be an afterthought.
A quick stop at the gas station might work for a casual BBQ — but when you’re hosting something memorable, you need ice that elevates the experience.
In the Greater Los Angeles Area, that means calling Crystal Ice.
We provide premium ice delivery for events of every size, including block ice, custom ice sculptures, and cubes in multiple shapes and sizes. With 24/7 service and emergency delivery available, we ensure your food displays stay chilled, and your drinks remain perfectly cold.
Our average delivery time is just 60–90 minutes from order to arrival. We offer commercial and wholesale options and can deliver up to 40,000 pounds of ice at once — so no event is too large.
With more than 60 years of service in Southern California, we’re the ice partner you can trust when it matters most.
Types of Ice
There’s more to ice than most people realize. The right type makes all the difference.
No matter what your event requires, we have the perfect solution.
Block Ice
Block ice is built for endurance. These large, dense slabs melt slowly, keeping food and beverages at safe, cool temperatures for extended periods.
Perfect for:
- Buffet tables
- Seafood displays
- Outdoor events
- Fresh meat stations
- Shaved ice machines
Available in 25-pound increments up to 300 pounds, with multiple clarity options including premium Clinebell blocks, our block ice is as reliable as it is versatile.
Ice Sculptures
Want to make a statement? An ice sculpture does exactly that.
From elegant centerpieces to intricate custom designs, our sculptors turn ice into art. Whether you bring us a photo, a sketch, a logo, or just an idea, we’ll create something unforgettable.
Small shot-glass sculptures? Absolutely.
Large, dramatic installations? Even better.
If you can imagine it, we can carve it.
Cube, Crushed & Cocktail Ice
No event is complete without cold drinks — and great drinks start with the right ice.
- Cubed Ice: Classic, clean, and available in multiple sizes for the perfect balance of style and slow melt.
- Crushed Ice: Quick-chilling and visually striking — ideal for specialty drinks and food displays.
- Cocktail Ice: From shaved to crescent to gourmet shapes, we’ll match your ice to your drink menu for a polished, professional presentation.
Whatever you need, we’ll keep you stocked and ready.
