Yes, you read that right, ice cream tacos. This is not your usual decision between cup and cone. If you insist on a cup you can get this here too, but where’s the fun in that?
The cones at Rocko’s are shaped like taco shells. You pick your flavor of ice cream. (By the way, they also offer vegan ice cream flavors.) Some liquid nitrogen makes sure this stays in place. Sauce? Sure! Three kinds of chocolate or peanut butter. For me white chocolate, please. For some fun crunch you can have this dipped into some nuts. Et voilà – an ice cream taco!
Nitrogen, vegan ice cream, a love for real ingredients. It should not surprise that behind Rocko’s is Lori Phillips with a PhD in Immunology. Rocko’s evolved from an idea in 2013 to an ice cream cart that grew into a food truck. The food truck is still around, ready for your next party. The brick and mortar stands in Santa Clara, near the university.
Rocko’s currently operates with limited hours. Please check their website.

All of this is my personal opinion. I did not receive any form of payment for this post.
And if Ice Cream Tacos are too much for you, you can always search for the classic ice cream experience – Burlington’s It’s It!
Sounds delicious and decadent! Reminds me of a chocolate burrito – filled with ice cream and doused in chocolate sauce – I recently had ar a Mexican restaurant.
That sounds mouthwatering!
