*NEW* Imagination Cone: Bubble Gum Soft-Serve in a Lavender Cone, “Sparks” of Imagination, and White Chocolate Wings – $6.75

A pink soft-serve ice cream with colorful sprinkles and orange bat wings in a purple cone, held outdoors during the Festival of the Arts, adds a whimsical touch to the park setting.

The “sparks of imagination” are Nerds candies. The soft-serve smells more like bubble gum than it tastes. It’s also not very creamy ice cream. The white chocolate wings are poor quality. And the Nerds are just too much with everything else going on. The lavender cone is the best part and it takes a very pretty picture. We rate this a 4 out of 7.

*NEW* Candy Trio Flight: Dole Whip Strawberry with Starburst Minis Fruit Chews, Dole Whip Lemon with Skittles Pop’d Freeze Dried Candy, and Dole Whip Lime with Chili-Lime Seasoning and Life Savers Gummies – $8.00

A hand holds a cardboard tray with three swirl ice creams and an assortment of colorful candies in separate compartments, capturing the whimsical spirit of the Festival of the Arts.

The strawberry DOLE with Starburst minis (particularly the lemon) is fantastic. The lemon DOLE with freeze-dried Skittles is very tart. Those of us that like tart loved it. The lime DOLE whip with chili-lime seasoning and Life Savers gummies is also good. The DOLE whip flavor-candy pairings are done very well. There’s something here for everyone and they’re all good choices. We rate this a 6 out of 7.

*NEW* Liquid Nitrogen Minnie Cake Pop with Berry Sponge Cake, White Chocolate Ganache, and Colorful Chocolate Splats – $4.75

A hand presents a Mickey-shaped cake pop adorned with white icing, a pink bow, and colorful drizzle, capturing the festive spirit of the Festival of the Arts. In the background, a tree and people add to the lively atmosphere.
Liquid Nitrogen Minnie Cake Pop with Berry Sponge Cake, White Chocolate Ganache, and Colorful Chocolate Splats – $4.75

This is a wasted use of liquid nitrogen. The cake happens to be very good, moist, and soft, but the liquid nitrogen is just for show here. They’ve done great things with it before so it was a disappointment. We rate this a 4 out of 7.
