Hello, Häagen Dazs, why have we not seen the dusk and dawn ice cream clouds in the states? Design team FONT, in collaboration with the ice cream company, sells these treats in London, Brussels, Madrid, Barcelona, and France.
"As Scandinavians snow is an essential part of our winters," said the designers. "We were inspired by how the snow clouds in the north transform the landscape. We made an ice cream snow cloud that sprinkles snowflakes on your plate."
I would like snowflakes on my plate while my head's in the clouds.
