CARVEL ICE CREAM - COOKIEPUSS 1983

CLASSIC 1983 COMMERCIAL FOR CARVEL ICE CREAM

When Star Wars was all the rage Tom Carvel, owner of Carvel Ice Cream, had to compete for attention. His answer to intergalatic hijinx was COOKIEPUSS. This stellar ice cream wonder was somewhat baffling to figure out. What exactly was he?

He was delicious of course but other than that it was hard to define.

Tom Carvel, ever the inventor, created CUPIDPUSS. This is a terrible name for a cake. This was obviously inspired by the Star Wars influenced Cookiepuss. The total concept was a complete oxymoron. You couldn't cut a Carvel ice cream cake with a fucking light saber. This thing was hulled straight from the deepest hubs of the ice cream vaults. No kidding, it was almost near impossible to cut one of these things without letting it unthaw for about 45 minutes.

Well, after 25 years. Here he is again kids. Cupidpuss.

Enjoy
