Charlie, the ice cream swirl is made from closed cell foam backer rod used to fill larger gaps before caulking or sealing. As I coiled it I hot glued the layers together on the inside of the swirl. Some white paint and a decorative cherry finished it off. I wanted to try to add chocolate syrup dripping down the sides but couldn't quite come up with the right color paint. I thought about sprinkles but couldn't find a non perishable stand in and didn't want to risk using the real deal although enough clear coat may have prevented any issues
