The Museum of Ice Cream is now open for visitors in downtown, Los Angeles. Introduced by Orange County native Maryellis Bunn, the museum was first launched in New York City last year.  The show sold out within five days and drew a waiting list of more than 200,000.

"It's not a museum in any traditional sense," Bunn explained. "I want adults to feel like kids. I want kids to come in and feel like children and it's just fun."

Launched on Saturday, April 22, 2017, the museum features rooms where you can eat and smell ice cream and related food items. You can visit a room full of bananas or take a dip in a swimming pool filled with sprinkles. What’s more, there’s heaps of ice cream to eat.

"The sprinkle pool is filled with 100 million sprinkles," Bunn said.

The Museum of Ice Cream will be exhibiting the Southland until May 29.  For those already making plans, tickets cost $29 per person - $18 for children and senior citizens. The cost includes two ice cream tastings and other delicacies.
