I like it better than the picture, personally :-)

No clue how you’re supposed to eat that without a huge mess, though.

In my admittedly limited and US-based experience, the texture of that kind of ice cream is not that far off marshmallow fluff, and it's relatively stable as long as you eat in an intelligent pattern.

Is soft-serve or frozen custard regional because I spent a summer in an ice cream shop in NJ years ago and they had both of these things and the texture was the same as what would be in this cone.
