Ice Cream Puns

Welcome to the Punpedia entry on ice cream puns! 🍦🍨🥄✨

Ice cream comes in many different forms (cake, sandwich, cone, cup), flavours (chocolate, strawberry, mint, etc) and variations (gelato, sorbet, froyo) and all of these are loved around the world. We enjoy ice cream as a dessert all on its own, and as a frosty accompaniment to other foods and drinks, like apple pie, cakes, waffles, milkshakes and soft drinks. Even though it’s a frozen treat, we consume it year round, and is known both as a comfort food and a cheerful summer snack – not something most foods can pull off.

We do need to be aware that the industries behind ice cream are not as wholesome and lovable as the product itself – ice cream relies heavily on the dairy industry, which is responsible for suffering on a mass scale. Luckily, there are plenty of non-dairy ice cream options, with coconut milk, almond milk and soy ice creams (as well as sorbet!) now readily available.

We hope that whatever you were looking for – be it a witty instagram caption, a sweet pick up line (…we do not advise using puns for this) or a punny Facebook post – you were able to find it here.

While this list is as extensive and thorough as we could make it, it is specific to ice cream puns. If you’re interested in related puns, you might like our cow puns, milk puns, chocolate punscake puns, candy puns or fruit puns. We’ve also got entries for chocolate, dessert and cookies underway!
