Each sundae features a “cicada” on top. The owners didn’t use real cicadas, but tried a few different things to get the look as close as they could.
The body is made from a chocolate-covered date with red M&Ms as the eyes and Golden Oreos as the wings.
“Dates are delicious and we’ve never used them in anything else, but maybe we should reconsider,” Fields said. “The wings were the hardest, but Golden Oreos seemed to work the best with everything that we tried.”
The cicada sundae is available now until sold out.
The shop previously offered this sundae in 2021 during the arrival of Brood X.
