The Hummel figurine “Sweet Treat” captures a heartwarming moment: a young boy kneeling to share his ice cream cone with his eager pup. Designed by master sculptor Gerhard Skrobek and first released in the late 1970s, this piece reflects the signature charm and innocence of Hummel artistry, inspired by Sister Maria Innocentia Hummel’s original drawings. While not among the rarest Hummels, early TMK-5 versions (with the “Goebel W. Germany” mark) are more sought after, especially in mint condition with original box. Rarity increases if the figurine features hand-painted details with subtle variations. As of 2025, its value ranges from $100 to $300 depending on condition and provenance. Collectors prize “Sweet Treat” for its emotional warmth and nostalgic appeal.
