Tutti Frutti?

Tutti frutti is among the most fabled ice cream flavours of all time yet I've never seen it in the hard ice-cream format in Canada!

Can anyone tell me where tutti-frutti hard ice cream can be found in the Toronto area - say within the quadrilateral defined by Detroit, Tobermory (Ontario), Montreal and Buffalo?

All I've found in the seven years since I posted is a soft ice cream booth in the Food Building at the Canadian National Exposition in the late summer that carried tutti-frutti among its several dozen flavours. The tutti-frutti was indeed delicious but sadly the booth has been gone for at least two years now.
 

 
So has anyone else discovered tutti-frutti ice cream in their own neck of the woods?
 

I once lamented the loss of tutti-frutti here years ago. It was so popular in my childhood in the 50's....haven't seen it in 30-40 years...I'd be interested if anyone has spotted it ANYWHERE!!!!

We should march to and picket the offices of the American Dairy Producers' Association until those food fascists reestablish tutti-frutti in every grocery store freezer and ice cream stand. Enough of nothing but dozens of variants of chocolate! We shall overcome! Join the  National Association for the Reestablishment of Tutti Frutti today!
 

 
 

You ask about Tutti Fruitti in Canada.  If you reside close to Toronto, scroll down on the like I have attached and you will find a gelato place that still serves your ice cream.

I always thought it was a joke--a Chico Marx gag.  I'm amazed the stuff even existed.

I phoned the two places in Toronto mentioned in the thread. Both are Italian places that serve their own home made gelato, which is closer to sherbet than to ice cream.  One has a flavour that they make on occasion with a name that seems to be Italian for tutti frutti. The other may have something very much like tutti frutti, but under a different name.
 
But Lindy Hop's in New Jersey may have tutti frutti ice cream:
