I was just reading on a different website where a Spanish-speaker (native to Argentina) couldn't figure out why he can only find one English word for "ice cream". Well, there are a few words that imply ice cream (ice cream, sorbet, sherbet, soft serve, custard...), but mostly we would always just say "ice cream".

What other words are there in Spanish for "helado". I think that I can start with "helado de crema", "helado de agua" and "helado de palito". Right?

More??

I think you got them all.

Right. Probably in Mexico.
