Why do you use "alors" instead of "donc"

I don't understand why you use "alors" instead of "donc". I don't get it because alors means so (then, yet) and donc means so, as well (therefore).

Is ice cream plural in French?In the weekend A1 writing excersize it gave, "Leurs glaces sont excellentes !" as the answer for, "Their ice cream is excellent." I got it wrong, of course, because I used it as a singular like I would in English. But earlier in the dialog, they also used it singularly, so I'm not sure why or when it should be plural?
