What do you call nine scoops of ice cream reposing on a lush brownie throne guarded by sentinels of fresh fruit?

There’s really no need to use overly fancy words. For example, instead of:
“What do you call nine scoops of ice cream reposing on a lush brownie throne guarded by sentinels of fresh fruit?”
why not just the much simpler:
“What do you call nine scoops of ice cream resting on a bed of brownies with fresh fruit?”

pure pleasure, indeed. doesn’t compare with a scoop of magnolia’s vanilla secret that i had at a recent exhibit.
