Every bowl is fluffy, hand-shaved snow sculpted into a smiling little cactus, dotted with chocolate "spines" and buried in fresh fruit โ prickly on the outside, sweet and soft inside.

The story
Prickly Ice began with one silly, wonderful question: what if a cactus โ the toughest thing in the desert โ was actually a snow-soft dessert? The answer turned into a brand about small joys: a treat that looks tough, tastes like a hug, and is impossible not to photograph.
