New Zealanders are among the world's biggest ice-cream eaters per head, and Hokey Pokey, vanilla studded with golden honeycomb-toffee, is the national flavour, popularised by Tip Top from the mid-20th century. Dairies and beach kiosks pile real-fruit ice cream and creamy single scoops onto cones all summer, while artisan parlours push gourmet flavours. In Auckland, Giapo turns each cone into an edible sculpture.

Hokey Pokey, vanilla ice cream studded with honeycomb-toffee shards, is a New Zealand national pride.

New Zealanders are among the world's biggest ice-cream consumers per capita; Hokey Pokey is an institution.
