Trapezial ice cream is cover with chocolate. Size is about eyeball.
It contains six in one package. Each ice cream is put on the plastic tray neatly.
And it also contain one pin to poke ice cream.
Who use this pin!
This ice cream is covered with chocolate, so we can pick up without being sticky. So I think we need not pin.
I think these tray & pin are waste of cost. They push up the price.
This ice cream company, Morinaga should beef up ice cream instead of unnecessary things.
Outside is chocolate taste because it cover with chocolate. And inside is vanilla ice cream taste. it’s very simple taste.
