It seems that summer has come early this year with the recent debut of [Nestlé's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/extrme-ice-cream) new Crushed It! Drumstick cones.

‎Nestlé's Drumstick Cone is an iconic dessert that consists of a sugar cone filled with a frozen dairy dessert and topped with a hardened chocolate shell. Now ‎Nestlé is putting a twist on the treat with its new Crushed It! [cookie crumb coated ice cream bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dairy-ice-cream-bars). The new ice cream bars come in two delicious flavors: Cookies ‘N’ Cream and Vanilla Fudge. The former consists of layers of Nestlé's Cookies ‘N’ Cream ice cream finished with a crumble-coated outer layer. On the other hand, the Vanilla Fudge flavor features the same cookie crumbs, but with creamy vanilla ice cream and fudge swirl filling.
