In all, 500 ice creams were shared.

The flavours included Tongue Twister, a lemon sorbet; Pornstar Ice Creamtini, made with ice cream and passionfruit sauce; and Slugero, ice cream with mango sauce.

It wasn’t just ice cream. The first 30 in the queue received a goodie bag including a Beauty BLVD lipstick.
