"  It&amp;#039;s a boat! It&amp;#039;s a truck! And it smells delicious! No, it&amp;#039;s not a Transformer with a baking hobby; it&amp;#039;s England&amp;#039;s newest ice cream truck. Looks like parks and streets aren&amp;#039;t the only places you can find ice cream trucks hawking tasty treats. Now they&amp;#039;re even on the waterways. More from Delish: Outrageous Ice Cream Sundaes from Across the U.S. The HMS Flake 99 (named for a British ice cream treat) is being touted as the world&amp;#039;s first amphibious ice cream truck in celebration of Britain&amp;#039;s National Ice Cream Truck. Commissioned by the dairy behind Cadbury, the bobbing, buoyant treat truck made its maiden voyage down the Thames, but its route won&amp;#039;t be limited to the river. According to the UK&amp;#039;s Metro, there are plans to take a trip across the British Channel and through the canals of Venice. The vessel has a top speed to of 5 knots (about 6 miles per hour), so the trip should take a while. But that&amp;#039;s okay since the Flake 99&amp;#039;s crew won&amp;#039;t go crazy listening to the typical ice cream truck anthem \u2014 &amp;quot;Turkey in the Straw&amp;quot; \u2014 during the long journey. Instead, the truck will blast Rod Stewart&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;We Are Sailing.&amp;quot; More from Delish: Ice Cream Quiz In celebration of the amphibious truck&amp;#039;s future, we&amp;#039;ve rounded up some other unusual ice cream trucks:   This may look like a normal, roof-less ice cream truck, but it&amp;#039;s actually a bed! We&amp;#039;ll take this over a race car bed any day.   Dogs need summer treats, too. On the menu: &amp;quot;Canine Cookie Crunch&amp;quot; (dog biscuit ice cream) and gammon and chicken sorbet.   It&amp;#039;s an ice cream.....truck.   Trying to appeal to the hip hop generation, this truck is cool is more ways than one.   No word on whether this truck&amp;#039;s goods were also vintage. (Ice cream ages like a fine wine, right?)   This is why ice cream is kept inside trucks rather than used to make a truck.   Were it not for the speakers loudly announcing its presence, this camouflaged truck could sneak up on the most unsuspecting picnickers. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
