Sanrio's Hello Kitty has spent the year collaborating with some unique brands, and its latest Häagen-dazs partnership has resulted in an adorable Hello Kitty Ice Cream Holder, which is sure to appeal to those with a sweet tooth as well as fans of the iconic cartoon cat.
The containers take on the form of three characters from the franchise: Hello Kitty, Pompompurin and My Melody. Each one is sized to fit a pint of Häagen-dazs ice cream, which can be revealed as the top is opened. This device is perfect for a number of reasons. The first being it serves as a temperature-regulating barrier, and the second being it helps makes one's favorite ice cream flavor more discreet.
