Here comes State 49 and State 50! Let’s see how their ice cream pans out for us!
Next up, let’s travel on over to Wisconsin and Wyoming for some cool deliciousness!
49. Wisconsin
Ice Cream Parlor: Malibu Moo’s & Not Licked Yet
Flavor Spotlight: Get Up and Dance, Malibu Island, El Nino Sundae, & Olaf Sundae
Wisconsin has, holds, and always will, have a special place and a soft spot in my heart. I live in Illinois, so not only am I a neighboring state with Wisconsin, but my family always goes up to Door County, WI each year, so both of these places are located there. One’s closed, one’s still open, but nonetheless, here we go! Enjoy!
Malibu Moo’s is unfortunately closed, and in all honesty, I am super duper sad about this. They had some of the most outrageous creations: ice creams with tons of mix-ins and toppings all in one. They are closed, and the location is now becoming a coffee shop: who knows, though? Maybe they’ll have an ice cream latte! We. Shall. See (next year, of course).
The Get Up and Dance: Coffee Custard, Caramel, Almonds, Heath Bar
The Malibu Island: Mango Custard, Coconut, Pineapple, Strawberries
Did you ever get a chance to try this location?
On the other hand, Not Licked Yet is pretty d*mn comparable, toppings and sundae-wise. While their menu isn’t as big, they have some delicious and cute-looking sundaes, from marshmallow and cherries, to a cookie sundae, called The Cookies ‘N Cream Sundae, with two giant cookies, one on top and one on bottom, with custard of your choice in between the two in the middle of them both! Lick up and enjoy!
The El Nino Sundae: Chocolate Frozen Custard, Hot Fudge, Red Raspberries, Fresh Whipped Cream
The Olaf Sundae: *Actually called The Do You Wanna Build A Snowman Sundae*, Vanilla Frozen Custard “Olaf” standing in a melted puddle of Blue Moon (Classic Marshmallow) Topping, and of course comes with a Warm Hug!
