AUSTIN, Texas — Want a sweet treat but tired of the same froyo or basic ice cream? Say no more! This unique rolled ice cream is the new treat that's becoming popular in Austin.
Smashed ice cream originated on the streets of Thailand, but it didn't take long before it became a hit in the U.S.
Vendors take popular food items like cookies or fruit, smash them into small bits and then mix those items with cream on a freezing cold plate. That quickly freezes and is then rolled into small tubes.
