This sign is not empty propaganda, nor is it just an opportunity for some Nicaraguan to show off his or her English skills. It is the hottest part of the summer right now, so it really is a blessing from God that Nicaragua has several great ice cream options. Eskimo is the Nicaraguan brand of the creamy stuff (our favorite flavors are sundae royale, mint, or pitahaya). The factory is not too far from our house. :)
There are also "helados"--fruit juices or salads frozen in little bags and sold out of various houses. We have always known that ice cream is a good way to build relationships, and it seems this is true around the world. A few times we have had the lovely experience of going to a house that advertises helados and being invited in for a chat while we lower our body temperature with sugary fruity goodness.
