We drove around Sicily for a few summer weeks in 2003. Ice cream in a soft sweet roll (a bit like brioche) was a pretty common snack. We thought it was a great idea - anything that melts soaks into the bun instead of dripping down the cone, and you could also munch into ice cream without eating the bun if you wanted to, which you can't do with a cone. Of course it's not soft-serve style ice cream, but the sort you scoop out in a ball. I think I will suggest this idea to some of the local places. It was 40C here on Monday, and summer ain't over yet.
