Vanilla ice cream, chocolate shell. Bite size. Like an ice cream bar but no stick and a lot smaller.

I'm pretty sure the originals were candy, not ice cream. And today's ice cream version probably come in different flavors.

All I know for sure is that you have to be really lazy, way overweight, and just sooooo lucky to be one of the women who gets to lay around eating them. It's like princess-hood fantasy come true.
