Stuffed Ice Cream

Stuffed ice cream serves classic flavors with a new twist: stuffed inside a cruff, or a stuffed glaze donut. They have a variety of interesting flavors, like "Thai Iced Tea" and "White Chocolate Lavender," so you can make your own cruff or choose one of their signatures. Bold photographers should go for the ice cream boquet: a cone with either 7 or 21 scoops all stacked into a boquet.
