If you enjoy ice cream, then give this dessert hack a try. The tropical tie-dye and ice cream make the treat. This viral food trend was first shown on the TikTok trend; let us say it is a favorite of ours. The flavor combination is a home run.

TikTok is well known for the viral recipes that have taken over the internet, such as not “fried” chicken ice cream easy cinnamon rolls with heavy cream and even tea bombs.

If you are craving cold ice cream on a hot day, head over to your usual fruit roll-up and creamy ice cream and get to making! The first bite is the best!

We love this fruit roll-up hack recipe because of its vibrant colors, bold fruity flavor, and crunch when you bite into the fruit treat. The crunch factor is what wins people over! Frozen treats are our favorites at our house. The sweet flavor of the fruit roll-up is where it is at. You can also use fruit leather if you prefer. Try with Breyers mango ice cream for a tropical twist or any ice cream flavors that you enjoy, like strawberry, rainbow, etc.

Tips

Make sure to make and eat it right away. Otherwise, it will melt and become a mess. This dessert is made as you eat it.

You can use any type of ice cream you like. We used vanilla, but feel free to try a Sherbert.

The frozen texture hardens the ice cream and creates an crunch. We were unsure if this TikTok dessert would actually work.
