A Frozie cup (also frozie ~, frozy ~, or frozen cup, "cold cup", "ice cup" or "icy cup") is a simple Australian frozen dessert, often sold for school or community group fundraising.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

A frozie cup consists simply of frozen cordial in paper, plastic or stytofoam cup. The block of ice is sometimes inverted in the cup when sold.[8]

Some frozie cups are milk-based[9] or ice cream based.[10]

Frozie cups are also used around the world as a subsitite for a popsicle. Often using sugar-based drinks such as Kool-Aid for flavor.

Frozen cups are well known in New Orleans.[10]
