Classic Ice Cream Truck Treats

Classic Ice Cream Truck Treats
Duration: January 1, 2023 - June 30, 2023

Treats
1. Bubble Play
Every baseball-loving kid probably tried this Good Humor treat at some point. However, eating a Bubble Play is more difficult than turning an actual double play. You see, the Bubble Play is a cherry-flavored, mitt-shaped ice pop with a bubble gum baseball stuck to the center.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with Y OR with 10 (intact) in the publication date OR with a baseball or mitt on the cover (show cover).

2. Candy Center Crunch
When we were kids, the Candy Center Crunch was one of our go-to orders from the ice cream truck. It’s essentially a vanilla ice cream bar covered in a Nestle Crunch-like chocolate shell, but in the very middle was a large, solid bar of chocolate.
🍦 Read a book with a three word title OR with 17 (intact) in the publication date OR with a chocolate colored cover (show cover).

3. Chipwich
Chipwiches – chocolate chip cookies sandwiching a heaping serving of vanilla ice cream – are deceiving. The cookies were too soggy, the ice cream was too hard, and/or all the chocolate chips fell off before you could even take it out of the bag.
🍦 Read a book with a one word title OR with 8 in the publication date OR with a chocolate chip cookie on the cover (show cover).

4. Choco Taco
Just when you thought tacos couldn’t get better, Klondike introduced the Choco Taco. Vanilla ice cream with a chocolate swirl housed in a taco-shaped waffle cone that’s covered in chocolate and peanuts.
🍦 Read a book with 3 o's in the title OR with 9 in the publication date OR with a taco or peanuts on the cover (show cover).

5. Chocolate Eclair
The Good Humor Chocolate Eclair is basically just chocolate ice cream surrounded by vanilla ice cream surrounded by more chocolate ice cream and covered in little “cake” pieces.
🍦 Read a book with a two word title OR with 15 (intact) in the publication date OR with any sized cake on the cover (show cover).

6. Cotton Candy/Bubble Gum Swirl
Bubble gum and cotton candy are both fine foods, but anything flavored like bubble gum or cotton candy always ends up tasting pretty nasty... and Popsicle’s Bubble Gum Swirl and Cotton Candy Swirl pops are no exception.
🍦 Read a book with a five word title OR with 25 (intact) in the publication date OR with a bubble gum colored cover (show cover).

7. Creamsicle
Not everyone is a big fan of orange and ice cream together, but Creamsicles have been an ice cream truck staple for as long as we can remember. In fact, they got so popular that Popsicle spun off Creamsicle into its own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with C OR with 1 and 0 in the page count OR with an orange colored cover (show cover).

8. Crunch Bar
If the Candy Center Crunch seemed like choco-overload, you could always opt for the Crunch bar instead. It’s basically the exact same thing, except it doesn’t have the bonus chocolate bar in the middle, and it’s made by Nestle.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with R OR with 9 in the page count OR with a bumpy item on the cover (show cover).

9. Drumstick
Nestle markets its Drumsticks as “The Original Sundae Cone,” and it’s hard to argue with that. These treats seem like they’ve been around since the beginning of time, and they really do combine the most important sundae ingredients – vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and nuts – into one easy-to-eat cone.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with D OR with 9 in the number of ratings OR with the title in red lettering (show cover).

10. Firecrackers
Come Fourth of July each year, you gotta believe there was a drastic uptick in the amount of Popsicle Firecrackers sold. The red-white-and-blue ice pops were ubiquitous around Independence Day, as the imagery was patriotic, and the cherry, white lemon, and blue raspberry flavors together on one pop offered a little something for everyone.
🍦 Read a book whose title contains a word that ends with -CK OR with 12 (intact) in the publication date OR with a red, white and blue item on the cover (show cover).

11. Fudgsicle
Originally called a “Fudgicle” in the first half of the 20th century, “Fudgsicles” soon became one of Popsicle’s best-selling products, and, like Creamsicles, eventually spun off into their own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with F OR set or published "in the first half of the 20th century" OR with a yellow colored cover (show cover).

12. Ice Cream Bar on a Stick
With all the Crunch bars and Candy Center Crunches out there (not to mention the relatively recent arrival of Magnum bars), it’s easy to forget that vanilla ice cream bars covered in chocolate coatings have been around since the days when our parents were kids.
🍦 Read a book with a six word title OR with 19 (intact) in the publication date OR with a white cover (show cover).

13. Ice Cream Sandwich
Nothing fancy here, just your run-of-the-mill classic sandwich with vanilla ice cream (or sometimes Neapolitan) between two rectangular chocolate wafer cookies that will inevitably stick to your fingertips.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with I OR with 16 (intact) in the publication date OR with a stacked item on the cover (show cover).

14. Klondike Bar
The only drawback is that you have to hold onto the actual bar while eating it, meaning it will melt a bit faster than stick-based frozen treats. At least the foil wrapper helps a bit with that issue.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with K OR with 11 (intact) in the publication date OR with a bear on the cover (show cover).

15. Looney Tunes Ice Pops
Nowadays it seems like every cartoon character has his or her face on an ice pop, but back in the day, Tweety and Bugs Bunny were among the few options available. The bubble gum balls didn’t stay on Tweety or Bugs’ eyes where they were supposed to, and more often than not we ended up with a cross-eyed bunny or a one-eyed bird.
🍦 Read a book with a four word title OR with 18 (intact) in the publication date OR with a Looney Tunes character on the cover (show cover).

16. Push-Up Sherbet Treats
These pushable sherbet treats were tasty, but they didn’t call them “Push-Ups” for nothing; they often required a lot of work, especially when the container malfunctioned. Once that simple push-up mechanism was compromised, you’d have no choice but to crush the cardboard tube, tilt back your head, and squeeze the sorbet directly into your mouth.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with P OR with a 1 and 9 in the page count OR with red, yellow and blue on the cover (show cover).

17. Snow Cone
Popsicle-brand Snow Cones ruined snow cones for us in our childhood. Instead of being a cone filled with lightly packed bits of shaved ice, as it’s supposed to be, the frozen treat always started as one solid block of tri-colored ice. You couldn’t bite into it, licking it did very little, and thus you would have to wait until the giant mass slowly melted.
🍦 Read a book whose BEGINS with S OR with 8 in the page count OR with the title in white lettering (show cover).

18. Strawberry Shortcake
If you’re the kind of person who calls dibs on the strawberry row of Neapolitan ice cream, you probably also enjoyed the occasional Strawberry Shortcake pop. It was often the best way to get strawberry ice cream from the truck, and it was relatively mess-free.
🍦 Read a book with a compound word in the title OR with a 19 (intact) in the ratings (EX: 628,197 ratings) OR with strawberries on the cover (show cover).

10. Firecrackers
Come Fourth of July each year, you gotta believe there was a drastic uptick in the amount of Popsicle Firecrackers sold.

11. Fudgsicle

🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with I OR with 16 (intact) in the publication date OR with a stacked item on the cover (show cover).

14. Klondike Bar
The only drawback is that you have to hold onto the actual bar while eating it, meaning it will melt a bit faster than stick-based frozen treats. At least the foil wrapper helps a bit with that issue.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with K OR with 11 (intact) in the publication date OR with a bear on the cover (show cover).

🍨15. Looney Tunes Ice Pops
Nowadays it seems like every cartoon character has his or her face on an ice pop, but back in the day, Tweety and Bugs Bunny were among the few options available. The bubble gum balls didn’t stay on Tweety or Bugs’ eyes where they were supposed to, and more often than not we ended up with a cross-eyed bunny or a one-eyed bird.
🍦 Read a book with a four word title OR with 18 (intact) in the publication date OR with a Looney Tunes character on the cover (show cover).

Be Mine, Vicious Valentine
Finished 11/2
🍨16. Push-Up Sherbet Treats
These pushable sherbet treats were tasty, but they didn’t call them “Push-Ups” for nothing; they often required a lot of work, especially when the container malfunctioned. Once that simple push-up mechanism was compromised, you’d have no choice but to crush the cardboard tube, tilt back your head, and squeeze the sorbet directly into your mouth.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with P OR with a 1 and 9 in the page count OR with red, yellow and blue on the cover (show cover).

Pink
Finished 7/1
🍨17. Snow Cone
Popsicle-brand Snow Cones ruined snow cones for us in our childhood. Instead of being a cone filled with lightly packed bits of shaved ice, as it’s supposed to be, the frozen treat always started as one solid block of tri-colored ice. You couldn’t bite into it, licking it did very little, and thus you would have to wait until the giant mass slowly melted.
🍦 Read a book whose BEGINS with S OR with 8 in the page count OR with the title in white lettering (show cover).

Finished 1/2
Title is in white letters

18. Strawberry Shortcake
If you’re the kind of person who calls dibs on the strawberry row of Neapolitan ice cream, you probably also enjoyed the occasional Strawberry Shortcake pop. It was often the best way to get strawberry ice cream from the truck, and it was relatively mess-free.
🍦 Read a book with a compound word in the title OR with a 19 (intact) in the ratings (EX: 628,197 ratings) OR with strawberries on the cover (show cover).

Classic Ice Cream Truck Treats
Duration: January 1, 2023 - June 30, 2023
Read: 18/18

Treats
1. Bubble Play
Every baseball-loving kid probably tried this Good Humor treat at some point. However, eating a Bubble Play is more difficult than turning an actual double play. You see, the Bubble Play is a cherry-flavored, mitt-shaped ice pop with a bubble gum baseball stuck to the center.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with Y OR with 10 (intact) in the publication date OR with a baseball or mitt on the cover (show cover).

Book: One for the Money
Author: Janet Evanovich
Read: 1/21/2023
Fits: Title ends in Y

2. Candy Center Crunch
When we were kids, the Candy Center Crunch was one of our go-to orders from the ice cream truck. It’s essentially a vanilla ice cream bar covered in a Nestle Crunch-like chocolate shell, but in the very middle was a large, solid bar of chocolate.
🍦 Read a book with a three word title OR with 17 (intact) in the publication date OR with a chocolate colored cover (show cover).

Book: Red at the Bone
Author: Jacqueline Woodson
Read: 1/3/2023
Fits: Published 9/17/2019

3. Chipwich
Chipwiches – chocolate chip cookies sandwiching a heaping serving of vanilla ice cream – are deceiving. The cookies were too soggy, the ice cream was too hard, and/or all the chocolate chips fell off before you could even take it out of the bag.
🍦 Read a book with a one word title OR with 8 in the publication date OR with a chocolate chip cookie on the cover (show cover).

Book: Inspection
Author: Josh Malerman
Read: 1/8/2023
Fits: It's a 1 word title.

4. Choco Taco
Just when you thought tacos couldn’t get better, Klondike introduced the Choco Taco. Vanilla ice cream with a chocolate swirl housed in a taco-shaped waffle cone that’s covered in chocolate and peanuts.
🍦 Read a book with 3 o's in the title OR with 9 in the publication date OR with a taco or peanuts on the cover (show cover).

Book: One Foot in the Grave
Author: Jeaniene Frost
Read: 1/12/2023
Fits: There are 3 O's in the title.

5. Chocolate Eclair
The Good Humor Chocolate Eclair is basically just chocolate ice cream surrounded by vanilla ice cream surrounded by more chocolate ice cream and covered in little “cake” pieces.
🍦 Read a book with a two word title OR with 15 (intact) in the publication date OR with any sized cake on the cover (show cover).

Book: The Selection
Author: Kiera Cass
Read: 2/5/2023
Fits: It has a 2 word title.

6. Cotton Candy/Bubble Gum Swirl
Bubble gum and cotton candy are both fine foods, but anything flavored like bubble gum or cotton candy always ends up tasting pretty nasty... and Popsicle’s Bubble Gum Swirl and Cotton Candy Swirl pops are no exception.
🍦 Read a book with a five word title OR with 25 (intact) in the publication date OR with a bubble gum colored cover (show cover).

Book: Lasagna Means I Love You
Author: Kate O'Shaughnessy
Read: 2/23/2023
Fits: It's a 5 word title

7. Creamsicle
Not everyone is a big fan of orange and ice cream together, but Creamsicles have been an ice cream truck staple for as long as we can remember. In fact, they got so popular that Popsicle spun off Creamsicle into its own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with C OR with 1 and 0 in the page count OR with an orange colored cover (show cover).

Book: Christmas Revelation
Author: Anne Perry
Read: 1/4/2023
Fits: Begins with a C

8. Crunch Bar
If the Candy Center Crunch seemed like choco-overload, you could always opt for the Crunch bar instead. It’s basically the exact same thing, except it doesn’t have the bonus chocolate bar in the middle, and it’s made by Nestle.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with R OR with 9 in the page count OR with a bumpy item on the cover (show cover).

Book: Blood Bound
Author: Patricia Briggs
Read: 2/13/2023
Fits: Page count is 292

9. Drumstick
Nestle markets its Drumsticks as “The Original Sundae Cone,” and it’s hard to argue with that. These treats seem like they’ve been around since the beginning of time, and they really do combine the most important sundae ingredients – vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and nuts – into one easy-to-eat cone.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with D OR with 9 in the number of ratings OR with the title in red lettering (show cover).

Book: The Island
Author: Adrian McKinty
Read: 1/24/2023
Fits: The title is red lettering.

10. Firecrackers
Come Fourth of July each year, you gotta believe there was a drastic uptick in the amount of Popsicle Firecrackers sold. The red-white-and-blue ice pops were ubiquitous around Independence Day, as the imagery was patriotic, and the cherry, white lemon, and blue raspberry flavors together on one pop offered a little something for everyone.
🍦 Read a book whose title contains a word that ends with -CK OR with 12 (intact) in the publication date OR with a red, white and blue item on the cover (show cover).

Book: Orange is the New Black
Author: Piper Kerman
Read: 1/26/2023
Fits: Black ends in CK

11. Fudgsicle
Originally called a “Fudgicle” in the first half of the 20th century, “Fudgsicles” soon became one of Popsicle’s best-selling products, and, like Creamsicles, eventually spun off into their own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with F OR set or published "in the first half of the 20th century" OR with a yellow colored cover (show cover).

Book: The Feather Thief
Author: Kirk Wallace Johnson
Read: 1/21/2023
Fits: Title begins with F

12. Ice Cream Bar on a Stick
With all the Crunch bars and Candy Center Crunches out there (not to mention the relatively recent arrival of Magnum bars), it’s easy to forget that vanilla ice cream bars covered in chocolate coatings have been around since the days when our parents were kids.
🍦 Read a book with a six word title OR with 19 (intact) in the publication date OR with a white cover (show cover).

Book: Neverwhere
Author: Neil Gaiman
Read: 1/19/2023
Fits: Published 9/16/1996

13. Ice Cream Sandwich
Nothing fancy here, just your run-of-the-mill classic sandwich with vanilla ice cream (or sometimes Neapolitan) between two rectangular chocolate wafer cookies that will inevitably stick to your fingertips.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with I OR with 16 (intact) in the publication date OR with a stacked item on the cover (show cover).

Book: No Dream is Too High
Author: Buzz Aldrin
Read: 3/11/2023

Classic Ice Cream Truck Treats
Duration: January 1, 2023 - June 30, 2023

Completed 18/18 tasks DONE!

Treats
1. Bubble Play
Every baseball-loving kid probably tried this Good Humor treat at some point. However, eating a Bubble Play is more difficult than turning an actual double play. You see, the Bubble Play is a cherry-flavored, mitt-shaped ice pop with a bubble gum baseball stuck to the center.
🍦 Read a book with 10 (intact) in the publication date
Rivalry Gone Wrong: A Cheer Moms Mystery - Book 1 (Cheer Moms Mysteries) by L.C. Turner 1/10/23 4stars (1/10/23)

2. Candy Center Crunch
When we were kids, the Candy Center Crunch was one of our go-to orders from the ice cream truck. It’s essentially a vanilla ice cream bar covered in a Nestle Crunch-like chocolate shell, but in the very middle was a large, solid bar of chocolate.
🍦 Read a book with a three word title
Murder of Pearl by Nellie H. Steele 1/17/23 3.5stars

3. Chipwich
Chipwiches – chocolate chip cookies sandwiching a heaping serving of vanilla ice cream – are deceiving. The cookies were too soggy, the ice cream was too hard, and/or all the chocolate chips fell off before you could even take it out of the bag.
🍦 Read a book with 8 in the publication date
Skunk Man Swamp (Reg Rawlins, Psychic Investigator #10) by P.D. Workman 2/21/23 4stars (6/18/21)

4. Choco Taco
Just when you thought tacos couldn’t get better, Klondike introduced the Choco Taco. Vanilla ice cream with a chocolate swirl housed in a taco-shaped waffle cone that’s covered in chocolate and peanuts.
🍦 Read a book with 9 in the publication date
Death on the Danube: A New Year's Murder in Budapest (Travel Can Be Murder #1) by Jennifer S. Alderson 1/25/23 4stars (11/15/2019)

5. Chocolate Eclair
The Good Humor Chocolate Eclair is basically just chocolate ice cream surrounded by vanilla ice cream surrounded by more chocolate ice cream and covered in little “cake” pieces.
🍦 Read a book with a two word title
Wishful Witness: The Wishing Tree Series Book 13 by Tonya Kappes 1/7/23 3stars

6. Cotton Candy/Bubble Gum Swirl
Bubble gum and cotton candy are both fine foods, but anything flavored like bubble gum or cotton candy always ends up tasting pretty nasty... and Popsicle’s Bubble Gum Swirl and Cotton Candy Swirl pops are no exception.
🍦 Read a book with a bubble gum colored cover (show cover).
Loathe to Love You (The STEMinist Novellas #1-3) by Ali Hazelwood 1/2/23 4stars

7. Creamsicle
Not everyone is a big fan of orange and ice cream together, but Creamsicles have been an ice cream truck staple for as long as we can remember. In fact, they got so popular that Popsicle spun off Creamsicle into its own brand.
🍦 Read a book with 1 and 0 in the page count
Meringue Snowflake Magic by Tena Stetler 1/22/23 3.5stars (110 pages)

8. Crunch Bar
If the Candy Center Crunch seemed like choco-overload, you could always opt for the Crunch bar instead. It’s basically the exact same thing, except it doesn’t have the bonus chocolate bar in the middle, and it’s made by Nestle.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with R
Surprise Baby for the Player by Clarissa McKay 1/4/23 4stars

9. Drumstick
Nestle markets its Drumsticks as “The Original Sundae Cone,” and it’s hard to argue with that. These treats seem like they’ve been around since the beginning of time, and they really do combine the most important sundae ingredients – vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and nuts – into one easy-to-eat cone.
🍦 Read a book with the title in red lettering (show cover).
Secretly Yours (A Vine Mess #1) by Tessa Bailey 1/8/23 4stars

10. Firecrackers
Come Fourth of July each year, you gotta believe there was a drastic uptick in the amount of Popsicle Firecrackers sold. The red-white-and-blue ice pops were ubiquitous around Independence Day, as the imagery was patriotic, and the cherry, white lemon, and blue raspberry flavors together on one pop offered a little something for everyone.
🍦 Read a book with a red, white and blue item on the cover (show cover).
All Hallows Scream (English Village Witch Cozy 9) by Rosie Reed 3/22/23 4stars (English flag)

11. Fudgsicle
Originally called a “Fudgicle” in the first half of the 20th century, “Fudgsicles” soon became one of Popsicle’s best-selling products, and, like Creamsicles, eventually spun off into their own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with F
The Forever Family (Harbor Cove #2) by Shirley Jump 1/15/22 4stars

12. Ice Cream Bar on a Stick
With all the Crunch bars and Candy Center Crunches out there (not to mention the relatively recent arrival of Magnum bars), it’s easy to forget that vanilla ice cream bars covered in chocolate coatings have been around since the days when our parents were kids.
🍦 Read a book with a six word title
The Earl Who Sees Her Beauty (Revelations of the Carstairs Sisters #1) by Marguerite Kaye 1/14/23 4.5stars

13. Ice Cream Sandwich
Nothing fancy here, just your run-of-the-mill classic sandwich with vanilla ice cream (or sometimes Neapolitan) between two rectangular chocolate wafer cookies that will inevitably stick to your fingertips.
🍦 Read a book with a stacked item on the cover (show cover).
Welcome Aboard by Jessie Newton, Tammy L. Grace, Ev Bishop, Kay Bratt, Violet Howe, Judith Keim, Patricia Sands, Elizabeth Bromke 1/7/23 3stars (suitcases)

14. Klondike Bar
The only drawback is that you have to hold onto the actual bar while eating it, meaning it will melt a bit faster than stick-based frozen treats. At least the foil wrapper helps a bit with that issue.
🍦 Read a book with a bear on the cover (show cover).
Bear With Me Now by Katie Shepard 4/24/23 4stars

15. Looney Tunes Ice Pops
Nowadays it seems like every cartoon character has his or her face on an ice pop, but back in the day, Tweety and Bugs Bunny were among the few options available. The bubble gum balls didn’t stay on Tweety or Bugs’ eyes where they were supposed to, and more often than not we ended up with a cross-eyed bunny or a one-eyed bird.
🍦 Read a book with a four word title
Valentine for the Player by Clarissa McKay 1/13/23 4stars

16. Push-Up Sherbet Treats
These pushable sherbet treats were tasty, but they didn’t call them “Push-Ups” for nothing; they often required a lot of work, especially when the container malfunctioned. Once that simple push-up mechanism was compromised, you’d have no choice but to crush the cardboard tube, tilt back your head, and squeeze the sorbet directly into your mouth.
🍦 Read a book with red, yellow and blue on the cover (show cover).
Butterfly Bayou (Butterfly Bayou, #1) by Lexi Blake 1/28/23 4stars

17. Snow Cone
Popsicle-brand Snow Cones ruined snow cones for us in our childhood. Instead of being a cone filled with lightly packed bits of shaved ice, as it’s supposed to be, the frozen treat always started as one solid block of tri-colored ice. You couldn’t bite into it, licking it did very little, and thus you would have to wait until the giant mass slowly melted.
🍦 Read a book with 8 in the page count
Meant to Be (Heart of Hope, #18) by Ajme Williams 1/21/23 4stars (284 pages)

18. Strawberry Shortcake
If you’re the kind of person who calls dibs on the strawberry row of Neapolitan ice cream, you probably also enjoyed the occasional Strawberry Shortcake pop. It was often the best way to get strawberry ice cream from the truck, and it was relatively mess-free.
🍦 Read a book with a compound word in the title - Gingerbread

Ice Cream Truck Treats
Duration: 1/1/23 - 6/30/23
Progress: 18 of 18
Completed: 5/19/23

Treats
🍡 1. Bubble Play 🍡
Every baseball-loving kid probably tried this Good Humor treat at some point. However, eating a Bubble Play is more difficult than turning an actual double play. You see, the Bubble Play is a cherry-flavored, mitt-shaped ice pop with a bubble gum baseball stuck to the center.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with Y OR with 10 (intact) in the publication date OR with a baseball or mitt on the cover (show cover).
The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han (4/25/23)

🍡 2. Candy Center Crunch 🍡
When we were kids, the Candy Center Crunch was one of our go-to orders from the ice cream truck. It’s essentially a vanilla ice cream bar covered in a Nestle Crunch-like chocolate shell, but in the very middle was a large, solid bar of chocolate.
🍦 Read a book with a three word title OR with 17 (intact) in the publication date OR with a chocolate colored cover (show cover).
Ruin and Rising by Leigh Bardugo (1/8/23)

🍡 3. Chipwich 🍡
Chipwiches – chocolate chip cookies sandwiching a heaping serving of vanilla ice cream – are deceiving. The cookies were too soggy, the ice cream was too hard, and/or all the chocolate chips fell off before you could even take it out of the bag.
🍦 Read a book with a one word title OR with 8 in the publication date OR with a chocolate chip cookie on the cover (show cover).
Warcross by Marie Lu (3/29/23)

🍡 4. Choco Taco 🍡
Just when you thought tacos couldn’t get better, Klondike introduced the Choco Taco. Vanilla ice cream with a chocolate swirl housed in a taco-shaped waffle cone that’s covered in chocolate and peanuts.
🍦 Read a book with 3 o's in the title OR with 9 in the publication date OR with a taco or peanuts on the cover (show cover).
Promise Not to Tell by Jayne Ann Krentz (1/26/23)

🍡 5. Chocolate Eclair 🍡
The Good Humor Chocolate Eclair is basically just chocolate ice cream surrounded by vanilla ice cream surrounded by more chocolate ice cream and covered in little “cake” pieces.
🍦 Read a book with a two word title OR with 15 (intact) in the publication date OR with any sized cake on the cover (show cover).
The Exiles by Christina Baker Kline (1/15/23)

🍡 6. Cotton Candy/Bubble Gum Swirl 🍡
Bubble gum and cotton candy are both fine foods, but anything flavored like bubble gum or cotton candy always ends up tasting pretty nasty... and Popsicle’s Bubble Gum Swirl and Cotton Candy Swirl pops are no exception.
🍦 Read a book with a five word title OR with 25 (intact) in the publication date OR with a bubble gum colored cover (show cover).
by Sophie Kinsella (1/13/23)

🍡 7. Creamsicle 🍡
Not everyone is a big fan of orange and ice cream together, but Creamsicles have been an ice cream truck staple for as long as we can remember. In fact, they got so popular that Popsicle spun off Creamsicle into its own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with C OR with 1 and 0 in the page count OR with an orange colored cover (show cover).
Legendborn by Tracy Deonn (1/19/23) ~ 501 pages

🍡 8. Crunch Bar 🍡
If the Candy Center Crunch seemed like choco-overload, you could always opt for the Crunch bar instead. It’s basically the exact same thing, except it doesn’t have the bonus chocolate bar in the middle, and it’s made by Nestle.
🍦 Read a book whose title ENDS with R OR with 9 in the page count OR with a bumpy item on the cover (show cover).
You’ve Got Murder by Donna Andrews (1/31/23)

🍡 9. Drumstick 🍡
Nestle markets its Drumsticks as “The Original Sundae Cone,” and it’s hard to argue with that. These treats seem like they’ve been around since the beginning of time, and they really do combine the most important sundae ingredients – vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, and nuts – into one easy-to-eat cone.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with D OR with 9 in the number of ratings OR with the title in red lettering (show cover).
Deeper Than the Dead by Tami Hoag (4/9/23)

🍡 10. Firecrackers 🍡
Come Fourth of July each year, you gotta believe there was a drastic uptick in the amount of Popsicle Firecrackers sold. The red-white-and-blue ice pops were ubiquitous around Independence Day, as the imagery was patriotic, and the cherry, white lemon, and blue raspberry flavors together on one pop offered a little something for everyone.
🍦 Read a book whose title contains a word that ends with -CK OR with 12 (intact) in the publication date OR with a red, white and blue item on the cover (show cover).
Broken Harbor by Tana French (2/20/23) ~ published 2012

🍡 11. Fudgsicle 🍡
Originally called a “Fudgicle” in the first half of the 20th century, “Fudgsicles” soon became one of Popsicle’s best-selling products, and, like Creamsicles, eventually spun off into their own brand.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with F OR set or published "in the first half of the 20th century" OR with a yellow colored cover (show cover).
Firestorm by Nevada Barr (6/9/23)

🍡 12. Ice Cream Bar on a Stick 🍡
With all the Crunch bars and Candy Center Crunches out there (not to mention the relatively recent arrival of Magnum bars), it’s easy to forget that vanilla ice cream bars covered in chocolate coatings have been around since the days when our parents were kids.
🍦 Read a book with a six word title OR with 19 (intact) in the publication date OR with a white cover (show cover).
A Rogue by Any Other Name by Sarah MacLean (1/25/23)

🍡 13. Ice Cream Sandwich 🍡
Nothing fancy here, just your run-of-the-mill classic sandwich with vanilla ice cream (or sometimes Neapolitan) between two rectangular chocolate wafer cookies that will inevitably stick to your fingertips.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with I OR with 16 (intact) in the publication date OR with a stacked item on the cover (show cover).
If I Die by Rachel Vincent (3/7/23)

🍡 14. Klondike Bar 🍡
The only drawback is that you have to hold onto the actual bar while eating it, meaning it will melt a bit faster than stick-based frozen treats. At least the foil wrapper helps a bit with that issue.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with K OR with 11 (intact) in the publication date OR with a bear on the cover (show cover).
Destiny of the Republic: A Tale of Madness, Medicine and the Murder of a President by Candice Millard (2/11/23) ~ published 2011

🍡 15. Looney Tunes Ice Pops 🍡
Nowadays it seems like every cartoon character has his or her face on an ice pop, but back in the day, Tweety and Bugs Bunny were among the few options available. The bubble gum balls didn’t stay on Tweety or Bugs’ eyes where they were supposed to, and more often than not we ended up with a cross-eyed bunny or a one-eyed bird.
🍦 Read a book with a four word title OR with 18 (intact) in the publication date OR with a Looney Tunes character on the cover (show cover).
Lethal White by Robert Galbraith (1/4/23) ~ pub. 2018

🍡 16. Push-Up Sherbet Treats 🍡
These pushable sherbet treats were tasty, but they didn’t call them “Push-Ups” for nothing; they often required a lot of work, especially when the container malfunctioned. Once that simple push-up mechanism was compromised, you’d have no choice but to crush the cardboard tube, tilt back your head, and squeeze the sorbet directly into your mouth.
🍦 Read a book whose title BEGINS with P OR with a 1 and 9 in the page count OR with red, yellow and blue on the cover (show cover).
Phantom by Christopher Pike (1/7/23) ~ 179 pages

🍡 17. Snow Cone 🍡
Popsicle-brand Snow Cones ruined snow cones for us in our childhood. Instead of being a cone filled with lightly packed bits of shaved ice, as it’s supposed to be, the frozen treat always started as one solid block of tri-colored ice. You couldn’t bite into it, licking it did very little, and thus you would have to wait until the giant mass slowly melted.
🍦 Read a book whose BEGINS with S OR with 8 in the page count OR with the title in white lettering (show cover).
by Meghan Quinn (5/19/23)

🍡 18. Strawberry Shortcake 🍡
If you’re the kind of person who calls dibs on the strawberry row of Neapolitan ice cream, you probably also enjoyed the occasional Strawberry Shortcake pop. It was often the best way to get strawberry ice cream from the truck, and it was relatively mess-free.
🍦 Read a book with a compound word in the title OR with a 19 (intact) in the ratings (EX: 628,197 ratings) OR with strawberries on the cover (show cover).
