Price: Cookie Monster ~$6.99
Website: Fugo Desserts
Quick Background:
Located at University and Dundas, Fugo Desserts was created from a love of dessert and a desire to share this passion. Fugo is unique in that it takes ice cream to the next level. It takes international flavours like "Hong Kong Milk Tea" and adds a unique creative twist to their specialty cones. The company has since went from just an ice cream place to offering hot drinks and mini donuts.
Review:
Open your Instagram app and look up any major Toronto food blogger. I guarantee that you have seen at least one of these photogenic-"insta-worthy" cones before. Fugo Desserts is one of the go-to places in Toronto to have ice cream with the squad or even alone. The store is small and quaint, definitely packed on a hot day -- on a cold day, not so much. Since I've last been there, the store has renovated inside and it looks absolutely amazing.
The most popular (in terms of photos) was of course the Cookie Monster specialty ice cream cone. A bit on the pricier side for an ice cream cone, but definitely worth it if you're looking for that food aesthetics for your Instagram. The cone is made with a marshmallow and cookies dipped waffle cone, topped with a combination of blue cookies and cream ice cream and lastly, decorated with tiny cookies.
*Warning* This ice cream *literally* turns you into cookie monster. Your whole mouth turns blue. If it gets on your clothes -- well, that'll turn blue too. Other than that, this cone was delicious.
Here's my photo:
Here's a video on how the cone was made:

Verdict: If you ever wondered what it would be like to be cookie monster, try this place. Also, feel free to try the other desserts and ice cream flavours - I hear they're just as great!
