Sherbet and Pop Rocks

I went to Clarabelle’s Ice Cream parlor last week despite the fact that it is SO COLD (wah) and got a Chocolate chip cookie hot fudge sundae, but asked for the “Blue raspberry bursts” on top. Why not? Sounds fun. The flavors weren’t ideal since the harsh artificial fruit flavor tasted funny against the vanilla and chocolate, but I still loved it.

I had to go to three stores to get all the ingredients, but I present:

My current Favorite Thing – a rainbow sherbet Pop Rocks sundae

with orange segments instead of hot fudge, because they’re fundamentally the same thing…right?

I love it so much. The fresh orange and the creamy citrus sherbet are perfect together, while the gentle (and sometimes violent) popping add a bit of extra fun. I bought 9 packages of Pop Rocks, so I’ll probably eat this a lot.
