Conglaturation!!!
You have created a great fic.
And prooved the justice of our culture.
Now go and rest our heroes!
Wow... the innuendos in the description were funny, but this is plain hilarious!
That's Celestia!![]()
I want a popsicle now...that read was good. I give you a thumbs up and favourite! ![]()
This was highly amusing and made me kinda want ice cream
Though I must say my only complaint was the flavor for Rarity, it just seemed too plain and simple considering how Rarity is and what not. I guess I was just expecting something with some sort of pizzazz or something. All the flavors perfectly match the pony they represent except for Rarity's but all in all great stuff!
I expected something completely different... and I'm glad I was wrong, this was great ![]()
oh Trollestia only you would pretend to be licking twilights horn like that. ![]()
i approve of this story.
I know it says it is high grade vanilla that is used but it also says that it's something that most would not take note of or notice, which is something that Rarity is not. Out of all the mane 6 Rarity is the one who purposely goes out of her way to be noticed and stand out as much as possible. The high class vanilla isn't a bad idea but in my opinion it still needs something extra to push it over the edge and be as spectacular as the unicorn it represents and not just "the kind of a thing a lot of ponies would bypass as something they'd tasted a thousand times before"
"Captain, you should check this out. I'm detecting high readings of likes from my visor..."

But rlly, nice story.
I need a sequel with where the Mane 6 try them out. It would simply be delicious. ![]()
Ah but it did say that the discerning ones would be in for a treat. The refined pony who can appreciate simple refined flavors, food snobs. And High class ponies is who Rarity likes to impress.
Also, we appear to be discussing ice cream flavors for my little pony characters....
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?! ![]()
Brilliant. The people at the library are giving me funny looks now, because of my
at the end. This is fantastic.
"Yet there's something more to it as well, a faint undertone of spices that I cannot recognize... Intriguing."
Wait
Wat?
Did she mean ?...No of course she didnt!!![]()
Confound you Princess Molestia!!!![]()
You drive me to think negativly!!
I suppose its just a matter of opinion either way am I right? Still, it doesn't take away from the overall amazingness of the story so in the end does it really matter?
As for how, I'll just chalk it up as excellent writing by the author to spur on an actual discussion on this particular subject. Thus earning them more points in the winning category
Now, will somepony please get B&J and Hasbro on the line and see about actually MAKING these?
A grand fortune to be made, for sure.
I was so confused......in a good way.
I was just about to close my browser and go to bed when this caught my eye. Great read and very *snicker* tasteful.
I loved it. It was funny, filled with delightful innuendos, and it satisfied my sweet tooth ![]()
Excellent job.
Hilarious!
Loved Celestia at the end with 'Twilight' there. Ah, when you're alone...
Great concept Lurks-no-More; very original. Not to mention, I am always a fan of trolling Luna! Definately worth a thumbs up and a fav. I think I'll have to have a look through your other stories ... I read Making Do a while back and it was great as well.
I just noticed one small mistake. In the sentence "It was becoming clear to her that Luna had to be involved this." you are missing the word 'in' after the word 'involved.'
Also, I love the picture for this story. I wonder what the names of the flavours are: Applelicious, Rarilicious, Flutterlicious, Dashilicious, Pinkilicious, and Twilightlicious?
Maybe you have it the wrong way around. Maybe it would take a refined high-class pony to appreciate the complexity and high-quality of the vanilla used. In that way, it can represent how 'simple' ponies ignore the subtleties of high-class, elegance, proper manners, and intricacies of civilized ponies. It could represent that no one but the most sophisticated of ponies appreciate her refined nature.
Maybe something purple should have gone with Rarity...some near-wine quality grapes?
Also, I know this is a one-shot (or it looks like it) but if there is more to this story, then the princesses should at least decide to agree with releasing the product if and only if the Mane 6 get a decent sized share of the profits.
BUCK that company. B&J paid the Occupy Wall Street Movement. Plus, their sherbet isn't very good. But, a nice Italian Ice would be sublime
no, not THAT Sublime- if only Hasbro had a branch in Italy. It's a good idea, just without the B&J part.
Dammit, now I want to try these Popsicles!

Great story.
That is all.

Okay, first of all: Wow. ![]()
I didn't imagine this would end up being featured... nor the flood of notices that brought on (seriously, they're coming faster than I can react to them). Thanks to all of you who read and, I hope, enjoyed this bit of silliness!
And if you're now craving a popsicle, particularly in one of the Mane Six flavors... then I have succeeded!
>>1021144 >>1021151 >>1021766 If you guys want a Twilight-flavored popsicle (or a Fluttershy, or any of the others), then the story has been a success! ![]()
>>1021189 Thank you! I loved the pic of Celestia (or is it Molestia?) with the Twilight-popsicle from the moment I saw it, and this story just flowed from there. I think it's one of the funniest things I've ever written. ![]()
>>1021598 >>1021688 >>1021878 Ooh, good discussion! I picked vanilla for Rarity (and as Celestia's favorite) because, well, it's white! But it's also something that's often overlooked as "plain vanilla", yet good vanilla ice cream is truly delicious and flavorful. I thought this suited Rarity who is a lot more complex and interesting character than her archetype would suggest, and who, in-character, is a small-town girl with a middle-class background who dreams of becoming a part of Equestria's elite - without sacrificing her natural nobility of spirit and generosity. Going with something more flashy and fancy could have also worked, but I liked this approach more.
(Also, thanks for pointing that missing "in" out, Jakub; I've edited it in.)
>>1021917 If I had thought of that when writing this, I would have used it. ![]()
Dat pic! Need a Rainbow popsicle stat, I sense some tasty stuff is to be had!
>>1022080 To be completely honest: I don't know myself! It's a bit of mystery that fits Magic, something that Luna had trouble coming up with and is proud of having thought of. Imagine what fits your idea of a flavor that characterizes Twilight Sparkle well, and it will be that, at least for you. ![]()
Sweet and simple.
*ahem* ...sorry.
I've never thought to put flavors to the Elements of Harmony before. That was perfectly written for what it was. A charming, funny read.
1 L1K3D TH3 T4ST3 OF TH1S F1C >:] (Please tell me someone will get this!)
I liked it a lot! ![]()
You wrote an entertaining fic that consisted of nothing more than Princess Celestia eating popsicles. You are a wizard.
...is it strange that, of all the...flavors, I'm most interested in tasting the Pinkie Pie Popsicle?
It sounds like it could be kinda yummy...
I'm sorry. I just found this fic boring. Decently written, but boring. But I won't downvote it. If you had fun writing it, and others like it, more power to you!
Well that was certainly amusing. Getting an Up from me, but not a fav. A decent way to spend five minutes--rather cute. Grazie and good luck in your future endeavors!
I wonder what the Mane 6's reaction to the release of the Popsicles are likely to be?
Mane 6 theme popsicles, as approved by Princess Celestia and Luna!

... I don't get it. It's well written, and... in my mind that's all it has going for it. I dunno, it just wasn't funny to me. But I won't downvote you, so no worries.
A pretty cute little story, but I was dissapointed there was no larger twist in the tale . Comedy is best when it subverts expectations, but nothing here really surprised me. In essence it was just a vehicle to chat about ice cream. A bit too straightforward for my tastes.
Regardless, it was well written and you got a laugh from me on the Molestia bit. Would have been a nice lead in to something bigger, but what you have was nice and cute, so that's fine too.
"Her expression changed suddenly from thoughtful to mischievous, as she gave the popsicle another lick. "Oh, my beloved student Twilight, you have no idea how long I have waited for this moment," she said in a throaty, lustful voice suited to a bedroom farce. Then her voice changed into a passable, if parodic, imitation of Twilight's tones. "Oh, Princess! I'm so happy to be finally alone with you like this! Please, please lick my horn again!""

Ah ah ah, I SEE WHAT U DID THERE![]()
Celestia will be Celestia
, simply hilarious.
Wonder how many nights Luna had to spend 'tasting' Twilight to get the flavors down....
Somepony needs to alert Hasbro about this fic and MAKE THESE DELICIOUS TREATS A REALITY. ![]()
Thumbs up! Hoping for chapter 2, "Background ponies in 31 Flavors". I knew what the ending would be two lines into the story, but getting there was still so... delicious.
awesome!![]()
another chapter involving the mane6 and the two royal sisters would be awesome, especially if you include some molestia jokes
I think that It's a perfect fit. Think back to the first time you watched the show, what was your initial reaction to rarity? most likely it was something along the lines of "Oh, there's that girly girl character we've seen a million times before." but as the show progressed our appreciation for her grew as we realized she's more than just another girly girl, she's the real deal.![]()
Very nice story! I just had an idea for a small sequel where Celestia and Luna dig deeper into the ice-box and find Celestia and Luna flavored popsicles!
And wait...what's this? No, it can't be...a Discord-flavored popsicle? *licks* Hmm, cotton-candy and chocolate milk and...uck, black pepper and soap! Who in their right mind would make a popsicle like this? Though, Discord is very much so NOT in his right mind, so to speak, so I suppose that's fitting....
Celestia's popsicle: Orange, grapefruit, lemon...and bananas? ![]()
Luna's popsicle: Black-currant, black raspberry, with a bit of lime. Often dark and brooding, but with a hint of cheerfulness.
A Pinkie Pie Popsicle? With... chili?
I'm not sure if that would be horrifically disgusting or inexplicably delicious, but I really wanna try it now.
Very nice, I was wondering what the pinkie surprise would be. The little Twi/tia thing at the end was very funny.
Will we ever learn what happens to the popsicle Celestia tossed out the window?!
It could have disastrous consequences.
Yeah, that has no relevance whatsoever to my criticisms. In fact it highlights my problem with the story. Its title hints at a big misunderstanding (such as 'tasting the mane 6') that would have been great comedy, but the actual content is just a list of icecream flavours. Kinda cute but fairly insubstantial.
Hilarity and Ice cream... You sir, deserve this.
