<p>I was talking with my family today and we were talking about a dessert we used to have.</p>
<p>It almost looked like lasagne…it had a layer of ice cream, then chocolate, then ice cream, then chocolate, etc. I can’t for the life of me remember what it was called, and it is driving me CRAZY.</p>
<p>The closest thing I can think of would be an American Parfait… but that doesn’t look much like lasagne. It has layers of topping then ice cream though.</p>
<p>No, it’s definitely not parfait. :(</p>
<p>I FOUND IT!</p>
<p>It’s called Viennetta. ^_^</p>
<p>Do they still sell it? I remember that dessert.</p>
<p>I don’t think they do…I haven’t seen any in the stores for as long as I can remember.</p>
<p>Yeah, it turns out they don’t have it anymore. I am referring to the one from Breyer’s.</p>
<p>I think that’s the same one I’m thinking of…not quite sure who made it, but there can’t be too many Viennettas floating around, can there? :)</p>
<p>Come to Australia! You can buy Vienettas in Melbourne! Only the vanilla icecream one though. I haven’t seen the chocolate or mocha flavours for years.</p>
<p>It used to be my favorite dessert, but I have not seen it in stores lately. I wonder why Breyer’s stopped selling it in the US.</p>
<p>Great, now I not only have insomnia, I have a craving for ice cream in layers with chocolate flakes…</p>
<p>So if it is 2:30 am on the East coast, it’s 11:30 p.m. on the west coast and late tomorrow afternoon in say, Sydney…</p>
<p>Yep, it’s about 5pm Friday arvo in the eastern states of Australia.</p>
<p>I think Viennetta comes back in the stores around Christmas time. That’s when I saw it last year.</p>
<p>It sounds similar to that dessert made with ice cream and those thin, round chocolate cookies.</p>
<p>It makes me sad that they don’t make it anymore. 
I used to LOVE that stuff.</p>
<p>I just saw a story on Today about products from the '70s that are coming back. No word on Vienetta, but look for Squirt gum, Underoos, Brim coffee and Salon Selectives.</p>
<p>The one with the chocolate cookies is called “ice box cake” at least around here. My husband still makes it.</p>
<p>I’ve got a box of the chocolate wafers on my counter, ready to make into ice box cake later today, per my daughter’s request :)</p>
<p>I love it when my kids fall in love with my favorite childhood foods!</p>
<p>I’ve never heard of ice box cake, but sounds good.</p>
<p>“I just saw a story on Today about products from the 70’s that are coming back.” Cracker Barrel stores have a great selection of mostly candy that I haven’t seen anywhere else since I was a kid in the 60’s.</p>
<p>Vienetta fans, watch and salivate (I did):</p>
