Keep reading for a list of must-try icecreams treats!

Brain Freezin’ D’oh-nut Sundae

Location: Lard Lad Donuts in Universal Studios Florida

This sundae is for the adventurous at heart. You’ll get one of Homer’s famous pink-frosted donuts, split in half and filled with your choice of vanilla or chocolate ice cream. You’re not done yet though! Choose your toppings from a variety of sprinkles, hot fudge, or cookie crumbles.

Earl Grey & Lavender Ice Cream

Location: Florean Fortescue’s Ice-Cream Parlour in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter

Earl Grey & Lavendar Ice Cream from Florean Fortescue's Ice-Cream Parlour

You can’t visit Diagon Alley without a stop at Florean Fortescue’s Ice-Cream Parlour. Some other favorite flavors is Earl Grey & Lavender, but a few other unique flavors are the Chocolate Chili, Clotted Cream and, of course, Butterbeer!

Waturi Fusion Ice Cream

Location: Koka Poroka in Universal’s Volcano Bay

This ice cream is four different flavors with swirls of orange, blue raspberry, strawberry, and banana. Not only is it a party for your taste buds, but its colorful appearance makes it photo-friendly and perfect for your insta.

Chocolate Brownie Bark Sundae

Location: The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen in Universal CityWalk

This one lives up to its restaurant’s name. Chocolate ice cream, chocolate brownies, chocolate fresh whipped cream, chocolate sauce, chocolate brownie bark, and — wait for it — chocolate sprinkles. I definitely recommend sharing with your significant other, or you know, a small army.

Emack Attack Sundaes

Location: Emack & Bolio’s Marketplace at Hard Rock Hotel Orlando

After a day in the parks, hang out at Emack & Bolio’s Marketplace for scoops of this legendary ice cream from Boston. You can get creative flavors like Deep Purple and Grasshopper in handcrafted sundaes or get them in candy-coated cones.

Baked Alaska

Location: Bigfire in Universal CityWalk

Before you dive into this cold treat, we’ll need to heat things up. Torched tableside, this Baked Alaska has chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ice cream inside. I think that’s one of the things I love about Baked Alaska. You get both fire and ice working together to create one tasty treat.

Strawberry and Peanut-Butter Ice Cream

Location: Three Broomsticks in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Hogsmeade

In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Harry Potter and his friends enjoyed strawberry and peanut-butter ice creams. You and your friends can do the same with a cup of this delicious hard packed ice cream available in Hogsmeade at the Three Broomsticks.

Classic Banana Split

Location: Schwab’s Pharmacy in Universal Studios Florida (seasonal)

Sometimes you just can’t beat a classic. Stop by for a scoop of your favorite flavor or a sundae like hot fudge or my go-to, the banana split. It’s the perfect way to take a break and cool off.

Milkshakes!!!

Location: Across Universal Orlando Resort

Milkshake from Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen

Basically, it’s ice cream in a sippable, mobile container, and the folks at Universal Orlando have perfected this creamy delight. You can get milkshakes all across our destination, from the whimsical creations over at The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen to the classic hand-spun at Mel’s Drive-In to even the “spiked shakes” at The Cowfish.
