Sweet Cup offers buyers the chance to choose from a variety of bright colors for the edible taco shell, such as original, green, black, blue, red, purple and more! Patrons can also ask for the ice cream in a regular ice cream cup if they want as well.
Sweet Cup offers patrons the chance to combine rolled ice cream with boba tea flavors like matcha, ube, black sesame and more. Some popular ice cream taco choices are S’mores Galore, Rainbow Road, Vietnamese Coffee, Birthday Cake, Mint Oreo, Strawberry Cheesecake, Monster Ink and many more.

Ice cream tacos are also one of the many popular food photo snaps on Instagram. These ice cream tacos are full of color and taste, from sweet to savory and with toppings like whipped cream to sprinkles sour patch kids.
