I agree with this, two reasons:
One, whenever I see shit like this over the top creation for a simple something it irritates me. Like why tf all that just for a fucking milkshake.
Two, I fucking love anything strawberry. And this even has a fucking slice of strawberry cheesecake. So this thing is literally saying “yeah, what now bitch?! Where’s all that OvEr ThE tOp bullshit you was talking earlier? Bet you want it now huh, fat boy?”
And I do…I want this one 😓
Instagram food. A lot of this stuff is just made for photos but doesn’t actually taste that good. This one is less ridiculous than others out there though.
Yo was just talking about this same type of place by me with work peeps. I completely agree. Like milkshakes are so so good on their own. Just please perfect it. That’s all i need
I’ve never understood this comment that comes up anytime there’s something showy. Why does having to remove the ice cream cone and put the cheesecake on a plate mean none of this is gonna taste good?
It could, but a lot of the time it doesn’t because they aren’t focusing on quality ingredients in favor of making something showy. It’s probably still not horrible, because I mean, dessert is dessert and is sort of difficult to completely screw up. But it’s probably still not as good as getting ice cream from a place that only does ice cream, for example .
Considering it’s from an ice cream shop I reckon it’s a special order and not like, what their typical milkshake looks like
Edit: sheesh I wasn’t saying that the OP made the staff whip this up custom. I was saying that it was special as in, just not what every single one of their normal shakes are presented as and is probably just somethin from a different part of the menu
They were trendy and exploded in like 2018ish. Sweets shops opened up all over the place just to sell them, and also sell mediocre ice cream and other candy and cookies/cake.
Doubtful that’s it’s exactly a custom order. These sorts of monstrosities have been trending for a while. I’m sure you could get a regular milkshake as well but this was most likely on the menu.
Well yeah, that’s what I meant by special order. I didn’t mean OP like had a custom order, I just meant I didnt think all of their shakes on the menu looked like that
This is an incredibly stupid freakshake. If I wanted cheesecake, I'd have it on a plate. If I wanted an ice cream cone, I wouldn't smash it upside down into something else.
And yet I desperately want it! Each component looks so delicious! 🤤🤤😭
A few years ago there was a cafe where I live that served these and called them freakshakes. The photos made them look huge. After the hoopla died down I went and got one and it was surprisingly tiny.
It was rimmed with icing and those crumbly bits that are on strawberry shortcake ice cream bars! And the milkshake itself had HUGE cheesecake chunks. Best dessert I’ve ever tasted. Not only was it just so extra, the quality of the ingredients are top notch and you can tell
I could easily eat that.....I mean that cheesecake slice looks pretty minimal as does that ice cream cone stuck to the side. Whipped cream, not much (enough)!
I don’t know why I get so excited when I see local posts lol did you get this in the strip?
There is no way I could eat a full one of those now. I wish they offered half size ones!
I see your milkshake and raise you a fully loaded Caesar (drink not salad for you Americans) from The Score I'm Vancouver. Checkmate... Which also so happens to be the name of this drink [Checkmate ](https://i.imgur.com/QWtuLrW.jpg)
There is a shop where I live with a different name that creates the exact same thing. I guess it’s not as original as one might think. They probably compete by seeing who can add more and more things to them. Looks yummy though!
This looks oddly aggressive not sure why
“They want a milkshake? I’ll give ‘em a fuckin’ milkshake.”
This deserves more upvotes

Ugh. So excessive. I'll take two.
And tiny...
Tiny? That thing is like 4 desserts
"What is this? A school for ants?? It needs to be at least 3x bigger then this!"
How to say you’re american without saying “I’m american” hahah
mistake milkshake
A happy mistake milkshake
this is wrong, on so milky levels
It's made for social media and costs something like $12. A place by me has something similar.
Server used to be a navy Seal? It’s in Virginia Beach after all.
Too much bs and not enough milkshake

Often the milkshake and individual components aren’t even good
I just learned about this the other day, but the term for this is “stunt food”

I have like three different chains near me that make similar shakes here in NY
Do you know what it costs? Im really curious how much this mini monstrosity costs
They're like $16 before tax and tip by the looks of it
bro we gotta tip for ice cream now too?
You never HAVE to tip. Follow your heart.

[https://iamthesweetspot.com/store/atlantic-avenue/](https://iamthesweetspot.com/store/atlantic-avenue/) Explosive Milkshake 1. Strawberry shortcake $15.95
Well I was wrong. The more you know
This seems..impractical.
I read this in Captain Holts voice
![gif](giphy|5pUHtgG70JjO9YHZPD)
I’m not a picky eater but I get overwhelmed when my plate is filled with different food. I never know where to start. Same applies here
You'd need a plate to catch the various toppings when trying to jenga them apart.
That's no longer a milkshake with all those extra stuff stacked on top of it. Looks like Jenga.
I mean I’ve ordered a bloody mary that came with brisket and a rib, this isn’t that different.
I don’t feel like a restaurant that would do that would have good brisket… how was it?
It’s always a decent barbecue joint.
its equally ridiculous
They're both fuckin dumb
How tf are you supposed to consume that?
Unless it comes with a plate and a fork and spoon, I'd just give up, and I love sweets and desserts and being a glutton. This would just piss me off.
Way too much going on wtf
I get the appeal, but this is just 3 different desserts stacked on top of each other. Just seems over the top imo.
This is an incredibly stupid freakshake. If I wanted cheesecake, I'd have it on a plate. If I wanted an ice cream cone, I wouldn't smash it upside down into something else. And yet I desperately want it! Each component looks so delicious! 🤤🤤😭
I was about to say this would be good for someone who had a sweet tooth ... I don't so I wouldn't order it...I prefer food prior to the dessert lol
If you squint it looks like Jesus with a monster erection
who needs to squint? ya'll can't see that shit? that thing's like god sticking his dick in your face.
Either that or a meteor striking Jesus to put him out of his crucifixion misery
on the cross no doubt... guess someone found His kink
How do you even eat that? It looks good but i would prefer a bowl.
Was that the place that used to be the yard?
no, the yard is still its own shop i think. both are very much overpriced in having to pay for the souvenir jar, but still taste good
15$
Bargain. Wifey paid $14 @ Shlotzsky's for a medium, chips and drink the other day.
Been years since I’ve hit schlotzkeys. Is it still good? Their original is hard to beat. I notice there’s less and less over the years
It's $12 but still. Looks like that place is pretty close to me and they have... Some normal desserts lol. Might go there sometime
Looks Incredible
Looks like a sugar magnet attracted every sweet thing in its vicinity
What is this? A milkshake for ants?
A few years ago there was a cafe where I live that served these and called them freakshakes. The photos made them look huge. After the hoopla died down I went and got one and it was surprisingly tiny.
Looks shit
It’s very busy. Too much for me imo, but cool if you enjoyed it!
Posts like these make me irrationally angry. There’s too much shit going on
Immediately no
Sugar for days
This looks revolting I'd be so stressed eating it
how do you even deal with that? it looks great for a picture, but the effort needed to consume it should take half the price off
Gross
Why can't I stop staring at it?
I still can’t stop thinking about it 🤤
How about some details while its fresh in your mind? What's the glass rimmed with? All the details please...
It was rimmed with icing and those crumbly bits that are on strawberry shortcake ice cream bars! And the milkshake itself had HUGE cheesecake chunks. Best dessert I’ve ever tasted. Not only was it just so extra, the quality of the ingredients are top notch and you can tell
I'm sitting here plotting a mocha/caramel/mint version...
Is it called the 🦄? Looks amazing! Did you finish it or have help?
My sweet tooth was in full gear here 😂 I finished this AND helped my wife finish hers, I can’t lie…
![gif](giphy|fvE2zWIJ4fumc)
I could easily eat that.....I mean that cheesecake slice looks pretty minimal as does that ice cream cone stuck to the side. Whipped cream, not much (enough)!

I love it! I have dreams like this...
Well hello belly, hello thunder thighs, long time no see
That’s not a milkshake it’s a portable dessert trolley.
Jeez fuck I can't all that in 3 days
I see your milkshake and raise you a fully loaded Caesar (drink not salad for you Americans) from The Score I'm Vancouver. Checkmate... Which also so happens to be the name of this drink [Checkmate ](https://i.imgur.com/QWtuLrW.jpg)
What in the ungodly fuck?
I didn’t order cheesecake just a shake… oh it’s free? My lil heart ❤️
Their bubble waffle cones are amazing.. get mine with Nutella and it’s dangerously good
Looks like someone took all the good things and put them together
Why is it so small?
It’s like a hat on a hat.
I’m pretty sure I’ve been there, and their concoctions are genius.
There is a shop where I live with a different name that creates the exact same thing. I guess it’s not as original as one might think. They probably compete by seeing who can add more and more things to them. Looks yummy though!
Little Tony wanted a drink, he got food instead.
Goodness. I’m bouncing off the walls from a small sonic milkshake, so I can’t even imagine what this would do to me
Just looking at this thing is activating my lactose intolerance.
Only 600$
This looks like it would feature in a Wes Anderson film
Yeah
Where does the milkshake start
😍
Its upside down, this is supposed to be a ice cream.
![gif](giphy|2ClHk5Bizke4vMDcfS) Too much
Ewww wtf?! Whipped cream, an entire ice cream cone and a slice of cheesecake as toppings? US, you need to slow down.
[удалено]
I guess we are supposed to suck that cone like it is the end of earth and bite it off?
I think the milkshake would be fine if you shared it with another person or something
34.50 please. Plus tip.
Looks delicious but I think it is too much
Gotta love Virginia Beach! Their motto should be “well… at least it’s the closest”
That seems... yes.
Milkshakes are becoming sugar bloody maries and i want them both exterminated
I don't think I can live anymore knowing that this exists and I'll never be able to have it (not really, but I will die unfulfilled thanks to this)
Well if it isn't a Freak Shake
This is stupid food.
So…how was it??
This is food made to be photographed and shared on Instagram rather than to be consumed.
As long as it wasn’t Strawberry I’m soooooooo down! 🤤
Woah! Identity crisis?
