Smusht

The ice cream is served in flavors such as Spicy Aztec Chocolate or Peanut Butter & Jelly Ring, and you can choose something traditional like chocolate chip cookies or try White Chocolate Coconut or Heath Bar Crunch varieties. Finally, select a topping such as chocolate chips or cereal, and you'll have a unique sweet treat.
