As if we ever needed an excuse to order a creamy, cool treat, this season’s warm temps have us on a constant hunt for the best ice cream we can get our hands on. Here, we’ve got the scoop on where to find the most festive (and delicious) frozen creations.

Eggloo – These build-your-own cones start with colorful, Hong Kong-style waffles, and loads of the requisite toppings.

Ice & Vice – Doughnuts or ice cream? Head to this downtown Manhattan creamery, and you won’t have to choose. Find all kinds of creative dessert and ice cream combos here.

Dominique Ansel Kitchen – The man behind the infamous Cronut craze opened his second location in NYC, with a focus on ice cream. Delight in soft-serve concoctions you could never have imagined, but couldn’t imagine living without after your first bite.

10 Below – Rolled, not scooped. Watch as 10 Below freezes your ice cream and rolls it to perfection, a craze taking social media (and our appetites) by storm.

Emack & Bolio – Known for their cones embellished with your favorite childhood cereals, these whimsical concoctions are just asking to be #Instagrammed – and for good reason.
