Beat The Heat (And The Stress) With A Monstrous Treat From Ice Cream, U Scream In Iowa

We all know the old chant, "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!" Once you’ve visited Ice Cream, U Scream in Dubuque, though, you’ll understand the feeling behind that saying! They serve up some of the creamiest, most delicious flavors of ice cream you’ve ever tasted.

The flavors are as delicious as their names are entertaining; try the Fat Elvis or the Munchie Madness, or go for the Yippee Skippee with “creamy peanut butter ice cream loaded with salted caramel ripples, soft brownie chunks, and crispy chocolate-covered pretzels.”

Beat some serious heat and stress with the “This $&@! just got serious”: salted caramel ice cream with salted cashews and sea salt fudge.  “The Exhausted Parent,” is a tempting bourbon-spiked espresso ice cream with bittersweet chocolate chunks.

Even the Old-Fashioned Vanilla gets rave reviews if you prefer this traditional staple.

Try it in a waffle cone, a sugar cone, or one of the colorful cake cones. Or get it in a bowl.

Want something really unusual? Get your ice cream in nacho form! This is a dessert that will seriously make you scream - three scoops of your choice of ice cream, topped with fudge sauce, cherries, and oreo crumbs and served with waffle cone “chips.”

The Banana Split (pictured) is another choice that deserves a loud cheer.

Whatever you do, just go get yourself some ice cream.

They even deliver, people!

If you’re wondering if they’re generous with serving sizes, check out this single-sized “Heaps of Love” in a large waffle cone! Seriously, what would a triple even look like?

While they’re currently not open for dine-in eating, Ice Cream, U Scream has adapted to the challenges of the times and has opened a walk-up window so tourists and local fans alike can still get their U Scream fix.
