With the hype for Tpumps just about over, dozens of teenagers are now heading to the new shop Icebox in the same Cupertino plaza for some Instagram-worthy dessert.

Icebox offers a variety of ice cream, cookies, macarons, snow ice and drinks, though it is best known for its macaron and cookie ice cream sandwiches. For around $5 (though slightly expensive because of the relatively small size) you can get a scoop of delicious ice cream sandwiched between two soft and chewy, freshly-made macarons. Cookie ice cream sandwiches are also sold at Icebox for $4 — just one dollar less. 

The 16-or-so different types of ice cream offered are displayed on one side of the cashier for customer viewing, and samples are kindly offered if a decision between all the good flavor choices is hard to make. Behind the counter also sit adorable arrangements of various macarons and cookies as well as an array of additional toppings. 

Besides the ordering area, the shop offers a pleasant and spacious place for sitting, both inside and outside. Service is satisfactory, and customers can even enjoy some background music while waiting for their order, which takes around ten minutes. 

With its delicious treats, relatively reasonable prices and cordial environment, Icebox is a worthy stop for dessert-lovers. So if you ever have a little extra money and are craving some ice cream, or just want to make your friends jealous, head over to Icebox and enjoy some sweets.
