Havana/A few days have passed since the Coppelia ice cream reopening And the fall in the variety of offers has already begun to be noticed. This Friday afternoon only two flavors were on sale –guayaba and Piña – instead of the eight that the place of products from the premises exhibited last Wednesday, located in the corner of 23 and L, in the Vedado Habanero. One of the posts to buy boats had even closed due to lack of merchandise.
In the long lines to enter the “Cathedral of the ice cream”, the main theme was the rapid deterioration of the emblematic trade. “We already know that everything has little here fixativebut the truth is that this is getting off too fast, “said a teenager who went in search of a chocolate and strawberry salad from the ads he read on social networks.” I thought I was going to find another show Beautiful, but it is the same as always. ”

With prices ranging between 30 and 40 pesos for each ball, depending on the size and combination that is requested, the ice cream shop remains much cheaper than private businesses that have proliferated in the area. However, individuals won the departure to state trade in diversity of flavors, quality of products to add and in the wide assortment of sweets. The waiting time does not lean in favor of Coppelia.
“I marked at four o’clock in the afternoon and there are more than five and I have not been able to enter,” a mother with a little girl this Friday, lamented. “I wanted to take a good chocolate curly with some torticas, which told me that they took the first day, but there is nothing left.” After an hour and a half waiting, the woman and her daughter finally passed to one of the courts located on the ground floor. The glass of water they placed on their table was another hard blow. The temperature of that liquid was as warm as the afternoon that extended over Havana.
