Ice cream and cereal, while not exactly the closest of sweet siblings, could be considered to be creamy, crunchy, super-close cousins.
Not every cereal takes the fanciful route the beloved cold confection does, of course, but many do, including some of the iconic classics from our cereal-obsessed childhoods.
Lucky Charms is very much in this colorful category, and it is the central star of a Salt & Straw limited-edition ice cream, one that is now synonymous with Salt & Straw's Cereal-sly Delicious ice cream series.

Five frolicsome cereal-themed ice cream flavors will be available all March at the Salt & Straw scoop shops, and online, too, including Pots of Gold & Rainbow, the goodie that possesses oodles of Lucky Charm cheer (oh yes, and sweetened cereal milk ice cream further adding to the breakfast-meets-dessert feel).
Other selections on the roster include Peanut Butter Brownie Cereal Puffs — the puff is such a crucial component of the realm of cereal enjoyment — and Cornflake Cookies with Marionberry Jam.
Two OffLimits cereals are starring in their own fanciful ice creams: Zombie w/ Coconut & Pandan, a vegan choice, and Cocoa Puffs 'n Cold Brew, when you like some coffee zing to thread through your dessert-devouring experience (Intelligentsia is the outfit behind the ice cream's cold brew kick).
The Scene
Want to find new things to do in Los Angeles? The Scene's lifestyle stories have you covered. Here's your go-to source on where the fun is across SoCal and for the weekend.
Find a Salt & Straw in the Arts District, Venice, and Old Pasadena, among other spots.
Just keep in mind that these cereal-filled fantasies are for enjoying later in the day, after the scoop shops open, but you could buy a pint and take it home if you'd like to savor a bowl during breakfast the following day.
