Ice cream while you wait

The idea of ice cream as we wandered around the ancient city of Nimes, France seemed like a good idea.

Then we saw this stand. Customers choose their fruit, type of cream, maybe nuts, cookies or candy.

The fruit is put on an ice round plate and chopped into tiny, tiny pits. The cream is added and as it freezes is mixed in.

I choose mangos, strawberries, vanilla cream. 

At the end it is flattened and rolled into tiny cigar shapes, put into a cup.

Voilà ice cream as you wait.
