Posted by Turkey Hill Team on April 1st, 2009

Apparently, this is what happens when you leave your ice cream truck out in the sun too long. Who knew! Actually, this gooey masterpiece is the work of Australian sculptor Orest Keywan, who won $30,000 in Australia’s Sculpture by the Sea competition. No word on how well behaved the seagulls are at this particular beach.

    No, a tow truck wouldn’t do, but maybe the biggest pack of hungray dogs would do. Very amuzing photo.

  7. Doris says:

    Was their logo…”Our ice cream is to melt for!” or maybe “Our ice cream will melt your taste buds!”

    That is an amazing sculpture. If that really happened in my neighborhood the dogs and cats would have a ball and the kids would be there with a spoon! I prefer my Turkey Hill from the freezer and it’s time to go have some Lite Moose Tracks.

    I hit the jackpot at the supermarket the other day….BP Dynamic Duo,Coconutz
    Duo and Chocolate Coconut Duetto (and the Duetto was on Sale for $1.50 each and I had $1.00 off Coupons… doesn’t get any better than that. The Choc/Coconut is awesome and I liked the nutz side,but the coconut caramel side is totally awesome. I’ll be tasting the BP Duo shortly.

  29. debbie F. says:

    We can’t let Vanilla Bean Win…CPBC is slightly behind…All you Choc PB lovers need to vote and have all your friends vote to…

  30. Robbin L. Netz says:

    $30,000.00!!! PHEW! You could buy a lot of Turkey Hill with that. Creative, unique, and eye-catching. I wonder what gave him the idea, and how long it took him to make it. Good job!

  31. Sarah says:

    How clever! I love this melted ice cream truck and am very glad it didn’t have Turkey Hill inside.

  32. Pat says:

    What a great idea! He certainly deserved to win!

  33. Bob Kessler Jr says:

    Looking at this sculpture it’s not hard to imagine how real it looks. Such an imagination and skill. I always eat my Turkey Hill before it melts.

  34. peg says:

    What an imagination! Good for him.

  35. Sara B. says:

    Fantastic!!

  40. Mary says:

    What a great imagination! It made me smile and I too am glad it didn’t have TH in it.

  41. Norma says:

    Turkey Hill will be at our Passover table. Line a pie plate with the sherbet of your choice and freeze. When ready to serve, soften slightly and fill with fresh strawberries. Cut into wedges, and you have the perfect ending to your Seder feast. It’s light and refreshing, and oh so pretty, too.

    Celebrating Easter? Turkey Hill sherbet makes the perfect final statement to your feast.

  42. lee carr says:

    this is an awesome piece of art, very creative.

  43. Edie says:

    Looks real and delicious

  44. Bonnie says:

    Great photo! And keep those votes coming for Moose Tracks. Gotta beat Vanilla Bean this year.

  45. Marg says:

    I like Turkey Hill Ice Cream Light/Yogurt. Usually I buy Vanilla Bean. When I want a decandent taste or a change, I purchase Black Cherry, Strawberry Cheesecake, or multi flavored Sherberts. A great way to enjoy the Vanilla is to blend it with your favorite flavor yogurt, skim milk, or diet soda for a great smoothie. You
    can add some peaches, raspberies, or melons pieces.

  46. Marg says:

    Regarding the Melting Truck: Great Art Piece! Too bad it isn’t edible.

  47. NORMA DEMAIN says:

    IT REALLY LOOKS GOOD ENOUGH TO EAT.!!!!!
    WHAT AN IMAGINATION.
