Capital EX 2012 - Fiddlestick

Capital EX 2012, a photo by raise my voice on Flickr.

When I was a child and Capital EX was still Klondike Days, my father would take my brother and I to the fair every year and we would all have one of these: a Fiddlestick! It's a block of vanilla ice cream dipped in chocolate and rolled in nuts. The chocolate hardens around the ice cream, so it's best to wait a few moments before digging in - if you can control yourself! It's a bit messy, and a great value at $4. If peanuts are not your thing, you can just get the chocolate or colourful sprinkles, stored in a container separate from the peanuts.
