Here just in time for Valentine's Day should you happen to live in Santa Ana, California, these ice cream flowers are popping up all over Instagram. Crafted by Cauldron Ice Cream (the same team behind puffed ice cream cones), the frozen floral creations serve ice cream that has been molded to look like rose bouquets inside their egg waffle cones.
Customers have the option of a single scoop in a small cone or three scoops in a large cone. The Red Velvet Puffle cone along with unusual flavors like oolong, jasmine and green tea make the ice cream flowers a very social media-friendly food. Cauldron's flavors change on a monthly basis, but currently rose, earl grey lavender and sea salted caramel crunch are available among others.
