Automotive enthusiasts with a sweet tooth will love the new [Ford](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mustang-shelby-gt500-heritage) [Mustang](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/7-eleven-ford-mustang) ice cream sandwich. This ice cream sandwich was created by [Coolhaus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brave-robot-x-coolhaus) to celebrate National Ice Cream Day 2017. It was inspired by the 2018 Mustang and its "Orange Fury" paint color. Sandwiching the orange ice cream are two vanilla whoopie patties covered in orange icing.

The wrapper holding the Mustang ice cream sandwich together is actually edible and is made from potato wafer paper and ink that can be safely eaten. Unfortunately this ice cream sandwich can't just be bought from any grocery story. It can only be found at Coolhaus' stores in New York and Los Angeles and also in its ice cream trucks.
