You could only make two.

Lets say ...

Strawberry, vanilla, chocolate ice-cream and raisins, Oreos, and gummy bear toppings.

And again ...

Orange, cherry, and apple ice-cream and Butterfinger, sprinkles, and m&m toppings.

So you have 1 type of ice-cream left and 1 topping that's not enough to make another bowl that has three flavors and 2 toppings.
