Upside Down Ice Creams

Vice & Versa Offers a Unique Twist to a Classic Treat

— July 24, 2024 — Lifestyle
Vice & Versa's 'Upside Down Ice Creams' redefine indulgence by offering a novel dessert experience that subverts traditional ice cream tubs.

These innovative Canadian-made treats resemble mini ice cream cakes encased within a tub that can be run under water for 12 seconds to loosen the mold, presenting ice cream in a visually appealing manner.

Vice & Versa provides this unique ice cream offering in three distinctive flavor options: Strawberry Shortcake, Chocolate Caramel Pecan Cake, and Chocolate Raspberry Cake. Each flavor is crafted to deliver a rich and satisfying taste experience that combines the convenience of traditional ice cream with the elegance and excitement of a cake-like presentation.

Vice & Versa Upside Down Ice Creams are available at Metro and IGA locations across Ontario and Quebec.
