Orange and vanilla, it’s chilla sweet lick on a stick.
If creamsicles could have a personality, they would be the cheerful neighbor that always greets us with a genuine smile.
They’re the kind of friend who will always make you smile, no matter how bad your day has been.
What is a Creamsicle?
Creamsicles are a type of popsicle that consist of a creamy vanilla center surrounded by a fruity, orange-flavored outer layer. It’s like having a mini dessert in your hand, without the guilt of eating a whole slice of cake.
The term “Creamsicle” comes from, you’ll never guess it, a combination of “cream” and “popsicle”
This tasty treat was first introduced in 1922 by the Popsicle Corporation.
🍹
It’s easy to confuse this popsicle with the creamsicle cocktail.
Which is made of vodka, cream, orange liqueur and syrup to taste.
Often consumed on the rocks because the cream and orange combination seems to taste best when consumed icy cold.
The Origin of Creamsicle Day
The origin of Creamsicle Day is a magical mystery, but we like to think that it was created by a popsicle lover who wanted to share their love for this delicious treat with the world.
Others say it was a marketing ploy by Big Popsicle Corporation to boost sales and get us all addicted to their frozen treats.
Nevertheless, we’re grateful for this holiday.

Happy Creamsicle Day!
Oh creamsicles, how sweet thou art,
A treat that warms both tongue and heart.
With orange hues and vanilla white,
You bring such joy with every bite.
Your flavor bursts with every lick,
A symphony of citrusy kick.
And with each bite, I feel so bold,
My taste buds dancing, uncontrolled.
You’re like a ray of summer sun,
A sweet escape when day is done.
So here’s to you, my dear creamsicle,
My tastebuds’ love, my sweet icicle.
