ice cream wafer

Frozen treat sandwich

An ice cream wafer is a thin, crisp, lightly sweetened biscuit served alongside or pressed into ice cream.

The wafers are typically rectangular with a grid pattern and have a delicate texture that contrasts with the cold creaminess of the ice cream.

In Britain, an ice cream wafer often refers specifically to a scoop of ice cream sandwiched between two such wafers—a common seaside treat.
