Every one of us has that one cereal, the one we always craved as a child and hardly ever seemed to have. Mine was Fruity Pebbles: I specifically remember having Fruity Pebbles at my cousin’s house and reveling in the treat. I still never have it, but do still love the flavor so I had to make it into a cereal. The ice cream base is steeped with the cereal, soaking in all the flavor. And it seriously tastes like cereal!

Just so people know what they’re eating, I like to sprinkle a few Fruity Pebbles on top. I mean, it also looks so good!
