Digging deep into a big ice cream container hands get covered with goo: short handled scoops are needed for leverage. A miniature 'Hula Hoe' has a fore-and-aft digging motion. That and a long enough handle would do the job neatly and quickly. The hoe would only be used to scoop from container to bowl;
it'd be a little awkward to stick in in one's pie hole.. ;-)
For those of you not familiar with the tool

Perhaps an alternative?

I find that the scoops are much too large for my mouth. A sharp hoe would probably not be friendly to my tongue, either. |
|
|
But just raking the ice cream out makes me sad in that it risks breaking up the large chunks of chocolate. |
|
|
Alternative solution: cut off the container entirely from the ice cream. |

Not quite what I expected from the title. |

This is rather like that odd and, I think, dangerous cheese
scraper thingy. I believe it would work, actually. It may
require some testing and various modifications to make it
work in hard ice cream. But, I really do like this idea. I'll
build one and see how it works. |

I thought this was going to be a former prostitute
wearing a grass skirt that lives in your kitchen, there
only to scoop your ice cream? |

I thought this was going to be a breaking news story about a Hawaiian dancer digging into ice cream with a gardening tool |

I thought that this was an elaborate mechanism
that you use to catch a cheating girlfriend by
constricting her with a stack of hula hoops long
enough to trigger and dump a bucket of ice
cream(flavor that she hates)on her head while
automatically releasing a press release about her
transgression on an international newswire. |
