Geeky Ice Cream Sandwiches

These Ice Cream Treats are Shaped Like Retro Game Boy Consoles

Whether you make your own ice cream sandwiches or not, the most crucial part of this tutorial is the decorating. The candy melts can be shaped into the screen and control pad, while the miniature M&Ms serve as the buttons. Once all the decorations have been added, your ice cream sandwiches should look exactly like vintage game boy consoles.
