Um, lolly sticks?????

I looked at the article but am still unsure. Is it striped icecream on a stick? Is it just a summer treat?

We have lollypops. Hard, generally fruity-flavoured candy at tip of small paper stick that kiddies slurp on until dissolved. You might get a peppermint one with stripes (like in the picture) but kiddies aren't really partial to those.
