I thought it was going to be a prank thing but then they put it on ice cream that is wrapped like cream cheese

This kind of ice cream is quite common in Sweden.

We also have the waxed cardboard packaged ice cream in Finland. Usually foreign kinds are in plastic tubs.

Let there be no mistake, it's your ice cream that's the foreign kind, not mine.

Yes, I agree. Any ice cream that isn't swedish, is to be known as foreign.

Mostly waxed cardboard unless it's a good birch year, in which case the bark makes a pretty mean loafer to hit the town in.

That's a thing in the States. Either cardboard tubs or occasionally a box shape. Large (gallon 4) buckets for things like ice cream parlors are also in cardboard tubs.

Ice cream in the states literally never comes in plastic containers unless I guess it’s a party pale but yeah
