I bought this today after seeing a post raving about it. I was completely disappointed and it doesn't really taste anything like advertised. There's no flavor of cake or ice cream at all; the only flavor is pure frosting. And not normal frosting; it tastes like a jar of Funfetti that someone added that blue swirl soft serve places added to vanilla, and then they dumped an extra pound of sugar in it. It's DISGUSTINGLY, appallingly sweet. And for ice cream that only tastes like frosting, the actual frosting swirls in this look like melted plastic. They're hard, crispy chunks that don't flow with the ice cream and you have to scoop out separately with your spoon. The only way I could see this being good is if you mixed it with actual cake and ice cream. Since the flavor is pure over sweetened frosting, add it to an uniced vanilla cupcake with some vanilla ice cream. The frosting flavor is so intense that chocolate would be too much imo. If you like frosting so much that you wish it were cold and soggy all the time, I recommend this. Otherwise, skip in favor of almost any other flavor.

Yikes – I’d seen that post, and dig similar flavors found elsewhere. Thanks for the detail of your experience, but also sorry for your disappointment.
The more I read your posts the more I trust your judgement, a mouthful of that kind of icing sounds so gross
The thing is it doesn’t even say that it has cake. It’s an ice cream cake so it has chocolate cookies broken up in it. Which was disappointing too. So it’s really just a cookies and cream with a weird, sweet, crunchy frosting ribbon that is blue for some reason.
This sounds amazing.
Yikes, I do question people high reviews. Just like the “marshmallow sky” everyone is raving about, it is nothing but a disappointment.
Pretty good when it’s in custard form at a VL ice cream shop
Where is thissss omg
I end up scooping most of the frosting off my cake, so I guess I’ll stay away from this one. Thanks for the review, OP!
Sounds like ice cream cake to me.
