San Francisco's Museum of Ice Cream has a sprinkle pool and a Pop Rocks cave - here's what it's like

Museum of Ice Cream is a Willy Wonka factory come to life that you won't want to leave.

If your sweet tooth still wants more, you can buy a scoop of ice cream for $4. We found room for the Piñata flavor, made with frosted Circus Animal Cookies. It was delicious.

The cherry on top, so to speak, is a trio of photo booths with colorful backdrops.

There are 100 million colored sprinkles made from plastic.

A hit at the New York and Los Angeles locations, the sprinkle pool returns in San Francisco.

By the time we arrived in the Pop Rocks cave, our sugar high was stratospheric.

You can, however, treat yourself to a soft-serve cone dipped in sugary "unicorn milk."

Photography might be allowed in this museum, but touching is not. We saw a museum employee politely ask a young woman to demount the unicorn in the rainbow room.

The pink AstroTurf looked torn from the backyard of the Barbie Dreamhouse.

We half-expected the Lollipop Guild to pop out from behind these oversized candies.

You can nibble on freshly-swirled, cherry-flavored cotton candy sprinkled with edible glitter.

Here's another one.

An opportunity for a new profile picture presented itself around every corner.

We were treated to bite-sized treats from My/Mo Mochi Ice Cream. Beware of brain freeze!

In the next room, refrigerator magnets let you write a message or an ode to ice cream.

We indulged in miniature sundaes, made with ginger snap ice cream, savory sweet ginger crumble, and strawberry-basil sauce — provided by San Francisco's Bi-Rite Creamery.

Follow your nose into a sweet-smelling, old-fashioned soda fountain shop.

We played a brief — and unsuccessful — game of whipped-cream can ring toss.

The experience kicks off with a photo opportunity. This machine takes a quick video of you against a bubblegum-colored backdrop and sends it to your email address.

Seriously, it's a lot of pink.

The new Museum of Ice Cream is located inside an iconic old bank on Grant Avenue.
