Food Porn: Ice Cream Cakes

by Nicole Weston, Posted Jul 16th 2006 @ 1:16PM

Since it's ice cream day, an ice cream cake seems like an appropriate way to celebrate. I used to make ice cream cakes all the time for family and friends, since their construction was one of the first cake-making techiniques I mastered. At the time I wasn't spending all of my time photographing food like I am now, so I don't have any pictures of those mint chocolate ice cream cakes or the strawberry cream ice cream cake to share here. Fortunately, Flickr has lots of ice cream cakes that are worth sharing. The additional benefits of the digital cakes is that they neither melt nor take up room in your freezer.

The cake above is a Stone Cold Creamery cake made for a birthday party. More cakes after the jump.

These two cakes are made entirely of ice cream. The one on the left is vanilla, chocolate and honeycomb, while the one on the right is a fruity sorbet cake.

Here's one final cake, also from Coldstone Creamery. The cake is has raspberry ice cream, is topped with fresh berries and is decorated on the sides with graham cracker crumbs.
