I Scream for Ice Cream Tattoos

These dessert tattoos are totally sweet

Ice cream has delighted the masses for centuries, with some finding evidence of frozen desserts in ancient China around 3000 BCE. Instead of milk, snow was used to chill honey and wine during the first several hundred years and through trading, the dessert soon spread throughout Europe. By the 18th and 19th centuries, ice cream became more accessible and more inexpensive. Once cheap refrigeration became available to the masses, the ice cream boom began and dozens of exciting flavors were added to the roster—largely thanks to two men in Burlington, Vermont.

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield established Ben & Jerry’s in a renovated gas station in 1978 after acquiring a $12,000 investment. Throughout the 1980s, the company made many career milestones—from establishing Free Cone Day (which still occurs every year on May 5th), creating their famous Cherry Garcia flavor after Jerry Garcia of The Grateful Dead and were awarded the U.S. Small Business Persons of the Year by then President Ronald Reagan. Throughout their many years in business, Ben & Jerry’s have been on top of social and political issues with ice cream, creating flavors to support gay marriage, Obama’s presidential campaign and the resistance against Trump’s administration. Many late night hosts have also been celebrated with their own flavors, including Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon.

In honor of all the amazing ice cream flavors out there and National Chocolate Ice Cream Day, we’ve gathered up some of our favorite tattoos featuring the frozen treat from talented tattooers around the world. Take a peek at some of our favorite ice cream tattoos in the gallery below, then let us know your favorite ice cream flavor in the comments section on social media.

Plánovala jsem vytetovat zmrzku o 10 čísel větší. Ale kvůli tomu, ze Tomáš má na sobě dost kerek, tak jsme se rozhodli udělat takhle malé tetování. Které vizuálně sedí se vším co má na hrudníku a břiše. Pokud, nikdo má úplně čistý hrudník, tak doporučuji velké tetování, které bude hlavním bodem trupu #eli_tattoo_prague #67tattooshop #colortattoo#worlfamousink #eternalink #icecream #icecreamtattoo#zmrzlina #zmrzlinatattoo#bananatattoo#tattooartist #tattoopraga#tattooprague#dnestetujeme#crazytattoo

Hello friends. The MI stay home order has been extended to June 12th. I have managed to stay pretty okay throughout all of this but it is TOUGH to just sit in all of this uncertainty. I have been neglecting anything related to work as a way to cope. But I appreciate everyone who has checked in and hope that I can reach out to you all with actual good tattooing news one day. In the meantime, here’s some ice cream tats of the past. I plan to post more oldies. I miss you all so much. tattoosbykadee@gmail.com #tattoo #tattoosnob #tattoos #ladytattooers #michigantattooers #michigan #detroit #ferndale #futurelazertiger #icecream #popsicle #foodtattoos #icecreamtattoo

¡Buenos días! Ayer volvió Miriam por tercera vez a seguir con su muslito de cosas tiernis Esta vez tocó un helado y una pizza felices, los reyes de la cuarentena, ¿Que no? ¡porque yo he comido helado por encima de mis posibilidades! ¿Alguien más que se apoye en estos dos como forma de antidepresivo? ‍♀️ ¡Muchas gracias Miriam! [Ya he vuelto a tatuar en @trecetattoo_malaga , si quieres que te haga un tattoo allí, ya sea algo de mi estilo o algún chiquitattoo tipo letritas, tienes que escribir a info@trecetattoo.com con tu idea, tamaño aproximado y parte del cuerpo donde lo quieres y te informamos de lo que necesites, pon en el asunto “tattoo con Meri” y te atenderé yo misma Porque por ahora el estudio permanecerá cerrado al público hasta nueva orden ]
