paradise on a stick!
um verdadeiro paraíso!


Explanation:
Abaixo estão as explicações do urban dictionary. A expressão "on a stick "é usada para descrever algo excelente, para exagerar e intensificar alguma coisa.
Então, para intensificar ainda mais a conotação de paraíso eu usaria algo como:
"Isso é um verdadeiro paraíso!" ou talvez, "Isso é o que eu chamo de paraíso!


urban dictionary:
*** A reply (usually to a rhetorical question), or exclamation, used to describe something excellent.
Ste: What a great night out!
Chris: On a stick!

***An additive to any adjetive, exaggerating the adjective. Everything on a stick is better.
Awesome flute player that brags a lot and has a huge ego: I got second chair
Better flute player (to friend): I got first chair
Friend: That is greatness on a stick!


*** often used to exaggerate the previous action or state of being. kind of like "uber".
Man, that was coolness on a stick!
i love ice cream, ice cream: on a stick!
