Favourite ice cream

j.col · 27 Jun 2011 at 21:09

With the recent heat, i have been eating more ice cream than usual.

While i am out and about i am quite partial to a Snickers or a Magnum.
But at home it has to be Hagen Daz Vanilla, it has to be the most morish ice cream yet invented.

and better yet, my local Asda's has the 500ml tub on offer for £2

whats your ice cream of choice?

Funny you posted this. Just eaten a tub of http://www.antoniofederici.com/ pistachio. Bloody lovely stuff. Got another tub of Amaretto flavour but am scared to open it, as I will no doubt eat the lot.

Hagen Daz vanilla is top of my list. Though I do love a magnum and I'm sure they are smaller than they used to be!

Have not tried that, but I know it will be amazing.

Was very disappointed to find earlier this year, that Lyle's Golden Syrup Sponge Ice Cream has been discontinued. That is the best stuff I have ever had. Even got in contact with them to ask why.

that is my problem,
i opened the Hagen Daz to just have a little, and i ate the whole tub :eek:

these should come with a government health warning

From supermarket haagen daz praline and cream. Not fond of chock ate flavoured ice cream.

Mint choc chip and rum and raisin are the best classical one, if ever go to an old style ice cream place

That was so disappointing not enough honeycomb and the honeycomb was to dark edging on to bitter taste.

But I'm all out, been eating too much this week.

have you ever tried Kulfi Pistachio, from Indian grocery shops?
i dont really like pistachio based ice cream, but this was really nice

really love ice cream, Clotted cream ice creams are lush, but i really like zingy sorbets too, like blackcurrant and lime. Do love a good cookies and cream, dont even mind a good neopolitan with wafers.

Don't often eat Ice Cream, but if it's a store bought thing i'd go for Haagen Daz Strawberry Cheescake. There's a really nice Gelato place in Mornington Crescent.
