Home Sweet Cone Ice Cream

🌟 New Merch Alert 🌟 Take a look at our new Pint Canteen! Think of this as a mini cooler for a pint of your favorite HSC ice cream!

The Pint Canteen can keep a pint of ice cream cold for well over 2 hours so it is a great option if you are thinking of bringing ice cream along for a car ride, picnic, date night or even just to sit and eat on the couch at home 🙃

Here’s how you will win the award for best Christmas/holiday gift this year: pop a pint of HSC ice cream in the canteen, wrap it up and watch the Home Sweet Cone lover in your life squeal with joy when they open it!

These are available at both shops and are $20!
