Ice Cream Roses


Is it just me or did everyone know that ice cream that has been molded in the shape of a rose is like . . . a thing?? I've heard of rose petals being used to flavor ice cream. I've even seen rose-shaped ice cream as a specialty item and served in a bowl, but never have I scene so much fanciness in a common ice cream cone! I searched and searched for more info on the history of this flowery treat, but couldn't really find anything, other than that it seems like rose-shaped ice cream is usually found in Europe and Asia, which is probably why I haven't seen it! Does anyone have any info on when/where/how this trend started?

Stunningly delicious looking, especially the chocolate dipped one!

Actually they are not moulded in moulds. In Amorino (http://www.amorino.com/fr/) the sales girls and boys are forming such ice cream roses with just a spoon infront of your eyes. It's really impressive.
Onse I had a rose formed ice cream and all of the petals had different taste and colour. Delicious.
