Description
These dolls were large with a plastic head and had an ice cream cone around their necks. They stood about 24 inches tall and came in a boy or a girl. The girls wore night caps and the boy wore a brown overall outfit with a cap. They were stuffed, with rounded feet and their left hand held the position universal sign for I love you. They had yarn hair in pink for the girls.

I had forgotten about my ice cream doll until I had a dream about it recently. I had to find them on the net but this is the only thing I found. Do you think they will bring them back like they did Rainbow Brite and Strawberry Shortcake? I would love to find one again!!
Yes i love these dolls, i have one just like the one in the picture, i was wondering if they were worth anything.
All, thank you for the thoughts about the Ice Cream Dolls. My family manufactured Ice Cream Dolls in the 80's. Village Toys unfortunately is not in business anymore. As for bringing them back manufacturing ceased on these dolls and there are no plans to bring them back. As for their value you can find them on eBay on occasion. You will have to check there for the prices. I truly hope that you enjoy them, and their memories as they bring back fond memories for us.
I had an ice-cream doll as a child and absolutely loved it! Lots of memories :)
I had an ice cream doll just like the one in the picture! I think we sold it in a yard sale for $1 about 15 years ago... Wish I still had it now..
Wow...I remember Ice Cream Dolls. Every girl in our family had one!! I sure wish we still had them! I'm definately gonna look on e-bay for them!!
Now, this was my favorite doll in the whole world. I used to sleep with it everyday. My sister had the girl and I had a boy.
James!!! Tell your family thank you for these little guys. I'm absolutely in love with them. THEY ARE DARLING.
My ice cream doll has pink curly hair and the hair isnt yarn its vinyl! It has the exact same body and face as the two pictured but I havent seen another anywhere with curly hair...Is it still an original ice cream doll?
My aunt has an Ice Cream Doll and I really love that doll but she wont give it to me cause her late husband gave it to her. when i was about ten my mom found me a girl ice cream doll and i took it everywhere i went, until my brother got evil and riped the head off. I was so angry at him and i will never let him forget it. I am 19 years old and i really want one. Is there anywhere else to get one other than ebay?
My sister and I both had Ice Cream Dolls when we were little as our father didnt like CABBAGE PATCH DOLLS!! So we were made to spend our pocket money ,(we save for so long for) on dolls i thought were Ugly!!! this year my sister brought me 1boy and 1girl .I'm now 31yrs old and have fallen in love with them :)
the ice cream doll was my all time favorite doll/toy...i can't stop looking at the picture...i don't know what happened to them...i had the girl and my sis had the boy... awww thanks for this...
James, a big hug and thank you for the ICE CREAM DOLLS!! I purchased 3 boy dolls for my sons, 2 of who are identical twins when at Knott's Berry Farm in the 80's and still think of that time as so special to our family. God Bless You
i only found one on ebay when i was desperately searching for one (last month) i'm not sure if she was sold but bidding has stopped...i didn't bid b/c she didn't have her ice cream and i'm hoping to get lucky and find one that does...
I'm so happy other people remember ice cream dolls too. I had a girl and boy and adored them. The photo really made me smile, wish I still had them. Thank you.
I just bought on from eBay. Her hair's been cut but i'm going to re-root it with new yarn. They're such pretty dolls!
I got a pink haired girl on a trip to Wales in 1986, she was about 3 inches smaller than me, and I could barely carry her. She was with me always; my mom even put my car seat in the car so she could ride in it. I still have her.
We were visiting my husbands dad, and started going through his late mother's doll collection. I've always wanted an Ice Cream Doll when the first came out, but never seemed to get it..not even from Santa. So as we were going through his mom's collection, i see this doll wrapped in a see through plastic bag, but VERY dusty! It looked like an ice cream doll, but that was too good to be true. Once we opened the plastic bag, I felt like a young girl again whose dream of having an ice cream doll was coming true. It was indeed a boy ice cream doll that was well preserved in the plastic bag. It was like new! I love my new Ice Cream Doll!!
I always hated these. I never wanted one. I thought they were ugly and stupid.
I have many of these dolls FROM THE HUGE ONES to the little ones in excellent condition - both boys and girls, if you'd like pics just ask.
I am open to selling them, once you receive pics if you want one let me know and I'll list it on ebay. princessbellasmom@yahoo.com -
i have an ice cream doll i named him billy ive had him for about 24 years is there any where i could find out hoe much he is now! not that i would sell him just want to know how much he is so my kids dont break him.
I had the girl Ice Cream doll I believe my uncle bought her from Taiwan for us many many yrs ago! She wears a peachy colour cap and a pink dress/apron, and a vanilla cone on a shoulder strap! Her hair is light brown made with yarn! I saw the boy Ice Cream Doll being used as part of the store display at Loblaws (a Canadian supermarket) and the display manager told me she bought him a few yrs back from a Salvation Army store and restored him to use as display.. sweet!
I use to be a foster mom and came across a girl we had 25 years ago. She loved these dolls and I found some on EBAY but really had to search hard..vintage dolls, ice cream cone dolls, whatever description it too. Anyway we got togethere and we both started to cry, remembering our time together. So thanks for the dolls and memories.
My son had an ice cream doll and he loved it. I am currently looking for one of those, a Christina Blessings doll (my daughter's favourite one) and Miss Drowsy (my childhood favourite)

I am looking for an african american one.
Hello. I just realized I have an ice cream doll. I own a children's resale & decided to look it up. It has a different dress than I have seen so I am not sure if it is original but it sure fits like it is made for her. She has pink hair but no cone. I just found that something was recalled on her in 1988 - you can check the cpsc.gov web site to check for recalls. I am guessing it was the cone hanging from her neck. Probably a strangulation hazard. Let me know if anyone is interested or I will just put her on ebay.
OK when i was a kid i had an imaginary friend named sister aim. i went on with her so much people actualy started to wonder if there was something there. so for one of my birthdays i got this for a gift and as soon as i opened it i yelled "sister aim what are you doing in the box!" and started yelling to get her out. it freaked eveyone out and they still talk about it to this day.
My next door neighbor had huge ice cream doll in pink dress. I remember a story on the news at the time about kids developing alergies to these dolls.

I would keep her but i am recently in a tight spot in my life i am trying to move out to California to attend college and i don't have any money.
ellow mellows i too had one of these rather lovely dolls and i just cant think what happened to him he had the big cord cap and dunggaries,and was ssoooo cute,i have found the head and hands set on ebay,you can make the body and stuff it yourself and make the clothes or buy clothes for it.just another idea if you cant find an original.
Oh my God, I had a little boy one! I had it from when I was about five until I was seventeen. I didn't play with it for all those years, but my little brother got mad at me and bashed its head on the pavement and broke it. It went through a lot of abuse. My mom once had to sew his head back on. I forgot all about the little ice cream cone around his neck! I miss him. :(
I loved my ice-creme doll!!!!! Her name was Arlene and she held a special place in my room and my heart for a very long time. RIP sweet Arlene!

I purchased 2 ice cream dolls for my grandaughter in the early 90's. They are called Grandpa and Granny. I can't find anything as to their worth. She is wanting to sell them, but we have no idea what to ask for them. They are still in the original boxes. Any suggestions?
My dad won me a BLUE icecream doll in the 80's at SEASIDE HEIGHTS, NJ. I think it was a boy and he was dressed in a satin clown outfit. If anyone has this doll I will pay $200 for it in EXCELLENT condition w/icecream. Atlanticst42@aol.com with pics please
