When information technology comes to desserts, most agree that it's pretty tough to top block and ice cream — even with a carmine. You might be thinking to yourself: What could possibly be better than ice cream and cake? Cake ice cream? No, while we love block batter water ice foam, we were thinking more than along the lines of a cold, sweet ice cream block.

An ice cream block is typically made by replacing near of the internal frosting of a normal cake with ice cream. Y'all start with a layer of cake, and then add water ice cream! If you lot want to add more layers, then you lot add more cake, add more ice cream, and repeat the process.

With so many ice cream cakes available, perhaps you're feeling a bit confused, and struggling to make a dessert option. Have no fear!

eighteen. H-Due east-B Vanilla and Chocolate Ice Foam Cakes

While we dearest a vibrant, beautiful ice cream block, we'd rather have a funny-looking treat that tastes succulent instead of a pretty block that just tastes kind of "meh." Centered in Texas, and with hundreds of stores in the land, at the H-Eastward-B grocery chain, you lot can notice ice cream cakes in iii different flavors: vanilla, chocolate, and cookies and foam. The vanilla and chocolate ice foam cakes are depicted as beingness covered with a sunny yellow frosting, decorated with bold royal, pinkish, and blue adornments.

These cakes look pretty plenty, simply when it comes to gustation, these cakes were non up to our expectations. The standard chocolate and vanilla cakes accept a unmarried layer of ice cream, and two layers of cake underneath the vivid-colored frosting. Of the cakes we tried, the block to ice cream ratio was unbalanced, leaving us wanting more than water ice foam in the block. Yous as well have to be careful of the frosting possibly staining your clothes, tongue, and teeth. This cake may accept reminded us of a pretty jump dessert, but we were looking for tasty over pretty, and this cake did not deliver.

17. Friendly'south Premium Water ice Cream Block

It's impossible to miss the bright red packaging of a Friendly's water ice cream cake in the supermarket. This ice cream brand has a rich history to it, beingness created past ii brothers at the peak of the Bully Depression, and according to the brand's website, was the offset ice cream sold by a one-half-gallon ice cream package, so that customers could bring it dwelling house. However, though Friendly's has an inspiring history, it's Premium Ice Cream Cakes aren't as inspiring to sense of taste. These cakes are easy to discover in stores, and are branded as having a layer of chocolate ice cream, a layer of vanilla ice cream, and a crunchy layer of something that seems like a crumbled cookie or cake in between.

Friendly'southward cake has a small frosting exterior, which is a plus if you prefer Ice cream over frosting. However, the crumbled cookie-cake layer, while branded as being decently sized, was near absent from the cake itself, resulting in just two large layers of chocolate and vanilla water ice foam covered by a thin layer of frosting. Target reviews too dorsum up this claim, with some customers having the same problem that we constitute. If this is what nosotros had wanted, then we would have just made ourselves a chocolate and vanilla ice cream sundae at home.

16. Signature Select Chocolate and Vanilla (Safeway)

If you've browsed the baker section of Safeway, then you've probable seen Signature Select's Ice foam cakes. Safeway is one of the stores endemic by Albertsons Companies, which since the 1860s has grown to own pop brands and grocery bondage such as Lucerne Dairy Farms, and of course, Signature Select. There are more Ice foam block flavors with Signature than the previous entry, including chocolate, vanilla, and cookies and foam, forth with ii others that are further down this list.

While Safeway'due south ice cream cakes come in more than flavors than other store-bought cakes, most of the ice cream cakes leave much to be desired. The chocolate, vanilla, and cookies and cream flavors are double-layered cakes, though yous wouldn't exist able to tell at kickoff, thanks to their size. These cakes take thinner layers of both block and ice cream that left united states wanting more cake and ice foam. When nosotros desire an ice cream cake, we get big or go domicile, but this ice cream cake made us want to go out Safeway and go home.

15. H-E-B'south Cookies and Foam Ice Cream Block

Following its chocolate and vanilla ice foam cakes is H-E-B's Cookies and Foam Ice Cream Cake. This cake can be found with other desserts in H-E-B'southward and stands out with its cookies and cream flavored ice foam in the center, mashed between two layers of chocolate block. The cake is coated in an Oreo icing, and topped with a chocolate drizzle, large dollops of Oreo frosting, and viii Oreo cookies.

The Oreo cake looks and tastes similar your average Oreo cookie-themed ice cream cake, and unlike its chocolate and vanilla variations, we appreciated the greater amount of water ice foam in this ice cream cake. However, nosotros've had far amend ice cream cakes from other stores, and compared to other ice cream brands such as Ben and Jerry's or Carvel, this cake wasn't anything too special. If you want a great dessert, you don't have to drive all the mode to a H-E-B in Texas to try this block, and we suggest y'all look elsewhere.

14. Signature Select Mixed Berry and Moose Tracks Ice Cream Cakes (Safeway)

The other two Signature Select water ice cream cakes that made this list were "Mixed Berry," and "Moose Tracks," flavors that are sold with the brand's other three flavors. The Mixed Berry season is a dessert made with a berry water ice cream filling, and a graham cracker-y chaff on the lesser. It'southward Moose Track variation is a chocolate crumble base, and is filled with a peanut butter cup ice cream. Information technology is also topped with a thicker layer of vanilla frosting, and has peanut butter cups and a chocolate drizzle on the superlative.

The Moose Track and Berry water ice cream cakes are a bit bigger and accept way more water ice cream than the chocolate and vanilla flavors, but they reminded us more of cheesecake made with ice cream instead of an water ice cream cake. We preferred the Moose Tracks flavor, and liked the peanut butter cups on top, though the peanut butter cups inthe ice cream weren't as numerous. This isn't helped by the fact that there is no actual block in this dessert, which isn't always a detriment, simply when yous're going up against ice cream cakes made by world-famous ice cream creators, it might assist to have something else going for y'all equally a frozen care for.

13. Marketside Unicorn Ice Foam Cake (Walmart)

Walmart is one of the largest chains of retail section stores effectually, so it should come as no surprise that yous'll discover some ice cream cakes in their frozen desserts section. Under the "Marketside," label (which you lot'll find on many of Walmart'due south bakery, cafeteria, and other products they sell in stores,) they offer numerous flavors, including chocolate, vanilla, and a beautiful pink and blue Unicorn Block Batter. These ice cream cakes were less expensive than other cakes on this list, existence offered at around $xv per round cake.

Nosotros didn't have the same problem with these cakes as nosotros had with the previous ice foam desserts. There was a fair amount of ice cream and block in this single-layered treat, and a helpful amount of frosting decorating the acme. Our favorites of the bunch was the Unicorn cake batter block, the latter having a nice layer of confetti-vanilla cake on the bottom, a block batter water ice foam center, and a prissy thick amount of majestic frosting, and lots of sprinkles. The ice foam wasn't as tasty as other in-shop brands yous can observe, but if yous're a fan of lots of frosting on your desserts, y'all might savour this cake. If not, you lot might want to pass on this colorful Walmart water ice cream block.

The Oreo Premium Water ice Foam Cake is a unmarried-layered water ice foam block with vanilla ice cream and Oreo cookies throughout. The ice cream block was also surrounded by a dainty, white frosting, and topped with a giant Oreo cookie.

This cake is unique in the sense that it's essentially not block and ice cream, but ice foam in the shape of a cake. At that place is admittedly no cake on this dessert — information technology's simply ice cream surrounded by frosting. The ice cream itself was proficient, and tasted like a normal vanilla ice foam with Oreos. Nosotros liked the frosting also, but the giant Oreo didn't exercise this treat whatever favors. Depending on how much you like the cake part of an ice foam cake, this may be your block, only this was not one of the best shop-bought cakes nosotros tried.

11. Baskin Robbins Standard Roll Block

Only because information technology's known for having 31 flavors of ice cream, that doesn't hateful Baskin Robbins can't do water ice cream block! Like a few other popular Ice cream brands out there, Baskin Robbins has a plentiful selection of Water ice cream pies, cakes and other treats to cull from. The showtime Baskin Robbins entry nosotros have on this list is their Standard Ringlet Cake. This cake is customizable, so nosotros tried information technology as it is shown on the website: a chocolate fleck ice cream rolled into a "cake whorl" by a layer of chocolate cake, topped with a layer of fudge, basics, and cherries.

While we love Baskin Robbins water ice cream, and the water ice cream in this block was great, this was our to the lowest degree favorite ice foam cake from the chain. Individually, goose egg tastes bad. Once once again, the ice cream was amazing, and the cake was decent, too. What we struggled to enjoy was the shape. We can only imagine how difficult it is to try to make a ringlet out of Ice cream, simply in doing and so, trying to consume this cake was an interesting experience, with our forks and spoons sometimes picking up just cake or water ice cream, every bit opposed to a balanced forkful. While this was by far from the worst cake we had, we'd rather go a different cake from the 31 Flavors.

x. Carvel'south Fudgie the Whale Ice Cream Cake

This next cake was one of the more fun-looking cakes on the listing. Carvel'south Fudgie the Whale block was a cute, chocolatey dessert that stood out on freezer shelves with its adorable whale shape and frosting smile. Carvel is known as "America'south "start ice cream franchise," created by none other than Tom Carvel. The website describes this ice cream equally having a lighter, creamy taste. With that in heed, this cake tasted only as great as it looked. The standard Carvel cake comes with two layers of vanilla and chocolate water ice cream that are separated by a layer of "Crunchies", though these are customizable. With milk fudge and a whipped frosting, this cake gave us a whale of a time, and should make for a cool chocolate treat at a birthday political party. Something nosotros noticed, however, was that the fudge would oftentimes be croaky, and the "crunchy" middle was disproportionate throughout. Likewise that, this cake is swell for whatever sea-themed parties you want to plan!

nine. Dairy Queen's Reese'southward Peanut Butter Cup Blizzard Cake

When it comes to ice cream, the Dairy Queen takes the crown for one of the best soft serve settings around. The get-go Dairy Queen opened in Illinois in the year 1940, and different other ice cream stores on this listing, sells hot dogs, hamburgers, and fries along with its frosty sundaes and scoops.

The cake also has a smaller layer of crunchy $.25 and fudge before being topped with a layer of Reese'south Peanut Butter Cups Blizzard ice cream and the actual candy, finished with a drizzle of chocolate. This block was corking, and the peanut butter flavor was very prevalent, but was incredibly sugariness, and paired nicely with the layer of fudge. The frosting was frozen, so a scrap hard to slice through, but other than that, a perfectly practiced peanut butter cake!

This cake serves eight-10 people, or only one person for 8-10 days, if you lot've got a sweet tooth.

This Oreo ice cream block was creamy, crunchy, and the soft serve ice cream in the treat ironically takes the cake. Even though this wasn't our favorite Oreo ice cream cake, nosotros do recall this spectacular dessert has the all-time Oreo ice cream inside. The Oreo Blizzard is a staple to society, and but adding it to this ice cream cake heightened our experience. Our ane critique is an issue that we had with other Dairy Queen cakes, which was the average, somewhat frozen layer of frosting that made the cake hard to eat

Nosotros know what you're wondering: Does this strawberry water ice cream cake truly stand upward to the classic ice cream cake flavors?

Information technology's challenging to get red velvet right. Since information technology's substantially chocolate, it's got a rich flavour that can overpower well-nigh anything it'southward paired with. While the red velvet cake layers of this block were definitely the dominating flavor of this water ice foam cake, we were happy to even so be able to taste the strawberry in the ice cream and the frosting. The graham crackers gave the cake a dainty crunch, though nosotros felt as though they were more often than not for the aesthetic. Our favorite part of this cake was the frosting. Calorie-free, flossy, and this time, strawberry. If you lot like strawberry ice cream, then this cake is perfect for yous.

The side by side entry we have from Baskin Robbins is their Oreo Cookie Block. This block is advertised as having chocolate or vanilla cake, with any available flavor of Baskin Robbins ice cream in the eye, such as Very Berry Strawberry, the Flavor of the Calendar month, or Oreos Cookies and Cream.

There likewise wasn't an overbearing amount of chocolate, and what was at that place balanced out nicely with the water ice cream.
