Possibly the Nicest Ice cream in the World

 

Date: 11/5/13

Background: When food shopping on Thursday (at good Ol’ Morrisons) I spotted this little beauty on an amazing offer! It had to be done!

What: Ben and Jerry’s® Core Blondie Brownie-

A soft salted caramel core surrounded by chocolate and vanilla ice creams with chocolate and blondie brownie pieces

How much?: £2.34 instead of £4.99!

What was Good: OH.MY.GOODNESS. This ice cream was simply divine! Double chocolate brownie ice cream from Ben and Jerry’s® is my favourite ice cream usually. So when I saw this but with the added variety of vanilla ice cream, blondie pieces and the sticky salted caramel core, I HAD to buy it. The chewy, rich, chocolaty brownie pieces were like little hidden treasures, and the thick semi solid ice cold ice cream was so creamy and decadent that it made every spoonful a treat in itself, a pivotal quality that Ben and Jerry® desserts have. The core of salted caramel sauce was the real speciality within this dessert. It set it apart from other “normal” Ben and Jerry’s ice creams, and it is the reason that I will look forward to the next time I buy a tub of this confection!

What was Bad: The blondie pieces were not as scrummy as the chocolate ones, but regardless they were still very tasty. I cannot think of another bad thing about this pudding. Other than the sheer calorificness of this tub of joy made me reluctant to eat the whole thing!

Would I buy it again? I cannot wait until I can buy it again! As long as it is still Better than Half Price!

Waffle-O-Meter:

All Lemon-y, and Sponge-y and Pudding-y

 

When: 27/4/13

Background: I came home for the weekend. En route, Tesco was visited and pudding for that night’s dinner was bought!

What: Lemon Sponge Pudding(s)

Where: From Tesco

How Much?: £1 for 2!!!!

What was Good: HOT, LEMON, SPONGE, PUDDING. What is not good about that sentence? I of course use the word sentence loosely. It was so tangy, yet sweet, and the sponge was so soft and bouncy! Sponge pudding, as I am sure you are aware, is one of my favourite things, and when you combine the deliciousness of Lemon sauce with sponge pudding and Cornish vanilla ice cream. It was always going to be a winner. And when it only takes one minute in the microwave, I didn’t even have to wait that long!

What was Bad: Nothing…. We all really really enjoyed the puddings. Except that I wish there was more of it!

Would I Have It Again: Yes. These sweet little pots of delight will be gracing my shopping basket again in the future for sure!
