Do you have a favourite ice cream flavour?

[Deleted User] · 08/06/13 - 22:07

Beautiful weather outside for the past few days so I've been having ice cream whenever I get the chance at a local ice cream shop. Thing is I never know which one to choose so I end up getting two or three different flavoured scoops.

So what is your go to flavour?

I had banoffee ice cream this afternoon. It immediately jumped to number one in my favourites list.

Orange choc chip! Delicious!

Vanilla, although I had a little tub of Strawberry today and it was beautiful. The only flavour I don't like is chocolate

I think for me it's very close between rum 'n' raisin and mint choc chip.

Earl Grey tea and Armagnac.

Vanilla although I do like Strawberry as well.

Coffee. It's not that easy to find though, and it's usually in the expensive ranges. I wish it was a standard flavour, I like something a bit less sickly sweet as a change from all the toffee/caramel ones, and chocolate. I often get plain ice-cream and tip a little strong coffee over it instead.

Vanilla.

I generally dislike flavoured ice-creams. I prefer to go for vanilla and add things to it like a sauce or compote or fruit of some kind.

Haagen Dazs Praline and Cream.

If we're talking a generic flavour something with toffee or caramel.

Traditional mint choc chip. Not the horrid supermarket stuff.

Chocolate chip

Agreed- I love chocolate bars and chocolate cake but I always find chocolate ice cream never does it for me. It's too intense and rich.

Black Cherry - though you can rarely get it.

Also Tutti Frutti - you rarely get that either.

Walls used to make gorge versions of both when I was little but no longer. I think the range they were from was called 'flavours of the world' or something like that.

mint choc chip

Another one for mint choc chip over here.

I get Tesco club points from my electricity bill. Sort of loyalty thing. I got £2 lol. As I shop at asda I called in to spend my £2 I looked in the freezer at the ice cream and they had there own coffee ice cream with a coffee sauce drizzled. It was so nice. And it was half price at £2 lol

Chizzleface · 10/06/13 - 03:33

I love any fruit-based ice cream, or toffee and chocolate. Don't really like vanilla on its own, it's a bit...well, vanilla.

[Deleted User] · 10/06/13 - 04:02

I love most ice cream flavours but my favourites would have to be pistachio, coffee, turrón (Spanish nougat) and mango and passion fruit.

J_Peasmould · 10/06/13 - 04:07

Mint Choc chip, and one I had on a holiday to New Zealand - Hokey Pokey.

Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey - banana with chunks of chocolate and walnut, mmmmm.

I'll look out for that, but there's no Asda near me

I love genuine vanilla ice cream. There's a world of difference between real vanilla and the artificial vanilla-flavoured stuff (which often doesn't taste of vanilla at all).
