"Shops" that sell ice cream are not ice cream shops, they're things like
newsagents and convenience stores or 'gas stations'.

We have amenity=fast_food, amenity=cafe amenity=restaurant so
amenity=ice_cream is correct.

I think 'fast food' implies something cooked - otherwise a candy/sweet shop
would be classified as fast food !

Continuing the logic, a 'sweet shop' should be classified as an amenity
too: amenity=sweet_shop (or amenity=sweets / amenity=snacks). Food sold
with the intention that it be eaten shortly after the sale.
