Every so often the ice cream world is turned upside down with a new frozen concoction that is innovative, delicious, and addictive. Enter rolled ice cream, the hottest trend to hit ice cream this season and the one sweet treat you'll want to eat this summer.
What is Rolled Ice Cream?
Rolled ice cream originated in Thailand where the liquid ice cream base is spread and frozen on an anti-griddle that is kept at -30C (-22F). It is scraped and reshaped (it is usually mixed with fruits, nuts and/or candy) and literally rolled into cigar-shaped pieces.
It is a popular ice cream treat in Malaysia, the Philippines and Cambodia, according to Forbes.
