Camden's Adventure Aquarium Holding Ice Cream Creation Contest

CAMDEN, NJ (CBS) – This April, Camden's Adventure Aquarium is holding a delicious contest.

The aquarium has teamed up with Philadelphia's Bassetts Ice Cream and is asking the public to submit concoctions for a Mighty Mike ice cream.

Mighty Mike, an aquarium resident and the largest alligator in the country outside of Florida, weighs in at a massive 800 pounds and is 14 feet long. Adventure Aquarium uses the 50-year-old fearsome creature as an "alligator ambassador" for conservation efforts, and they're asking visitors to the aquarium to think about a flavor that best represents Mike.

To submit your flavor, visit Adventure Aquarium's Facebook page by April 21st and list your ingredients. The submissions will be narrowed down to three flavor finalists before voting is opened up to the public, and the winning flavor will be distributed to stores in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
