help ): i need a cake

ok, basically I NEED A HUGE ICE CREAM CAKE.. enough to feed 30 people? I don't want to get a normal size rectangle one cause everyones just going to have a small piece. I don't know where to look. Does anyone know where to get a good and big ice cream cake in Scarborough or the GTA

    We got our cake last summer, on a whim, from the Ben & Jerry's on Queen Street East in the Beaches. They had a catalogue for ordering.

            According to the B & J website, the closest shop to sell ice cream cakes is in Niagara Falls (on the American side, no less). Quite a hike for an ice cream cake. :) It does sound good though.

            Why not Baskin-Robbins? They do custom-order cakes and there are several locations in Scarborough & GTA.

              I second the recommendation. Unfortunately, the icing's not the greatest, but what do you expect on a frozen cake, and it's all about the ice cream anyway, isn't it?

                The slightly chewy fudgy icing that they use is very yummy IMHO.

                  Oh, don't think that one was on the cake I had. So, I guess this is the icing to request if ordering a cake from there....

                    Definitely agree on that fudge icing. You pretty much have to specify only fudge icing.
