Maybe try another place with a different kind. McDonalds hot fudge sundaes burn only a little so once in a great while I will try one but Cold Stone ice cream burns like fire. I can eat Rita's or Friendly's soft chocolate with hot fudge or caramel.
Ice cream or anything very cold in the tube might be a big shock to your stomach. Im extra cautious when putting anything other than meds or formula down my tube. But I have frequent stomach upsets and still take zofran on those bad days.
