I want to know. I don’t care if it’s a fancy artisan gelato or just your regular soft serve at McBurger’s. Do you have a flavor you like? Perhaps a brand? Perhaps you make it yourself? If you’re getting scoops, do you have a preference for which flavor goes on top of the other? Do you like wafer cones or are you a cup person? Any toppings?
I always prefer gelato, and some of my all time favorites are sabayon, mascarpone, anything with rum/berries/sultanas, and choc chip mint. I prefer cup to cone. When I was a kid I used to love the soft serve cones but as I grew up they started making me sick so I avoid them now.
I used to be able to get Blackberry Merlot gelato years ago. I haven’t had it in years, but miss it dearly
Jenny’s Brambleberry
I’m not picky about brand but my go to is Rainbow Sherbet (no fruit chunks) on a waffle cone. It’s sweet, refreshing, and idk why but it doesn’t upset my stomach as much as other ice cream.
Stracciatella.
Pistachio gelato, any brand will do.
Tbh vanilla from a very specific small ice cream shop in Germany. I don’t like vanilla from pretty much anywhere else, there are good flavours in other shops but when I’m visiting my parents I have to go there and get the vanilla. Maybe it’s nostalgia but it’s my favourite and I don’t know what to do if they ever have to close.
Which one is it? I was spoiled by Kaffeehus in Göttingen. I usually take straciatella or chocolate but there it must be vanilla.
I might as well tell you where I live/my parents live, so I prefer not to say ^^ It’s a fairly small village/town
Maybe they have really good vanilla. I think vanilla is underrated as a flavor in general, and making a good one requires really high quality ingredients because it’s such a subtle flavor.
Store bought: Tillamook Chocolate Peanut Butter
Ice cream shop: Carl’s Frozen Custard in VA. It’s pretty famous in the US. Easily the best frozen custard anywhere. They’re still using their old Electo-Freeze machines to make it. I get their chocolate vanilla swirl or strawberry. So smooth and creamy.
Crushed up cookies/brownies/cake in vanilla ice cream.
I usually have it at events, and once or twice a year on my own. I’d prefer my calories went towards alcohol.
(Planing to dry out at the end of the football season if there isn’t a false flag attack during the superbowl)
Pumpkin - local creamery is divine
Ivorian Chocolate from Cosa Nostra, Lahore
Grapefruit!
Oh nice! I’d love to try that, I like grapefruit!
lemon. always lemon. if i get more than 1 scoop, then salted caramel or something with chocolate (like bounty, snickers, oreo, crunchy, dark chocolate, etc)
Important question: sorbet or ice cream/gelato?
mint chip, for me
I had one with fresh minced mint + basil along with diced bittersweet chocolate & it went so beyond the average enjoyment of mint chocolate.
Maple Walnut FTW
A good dark chocolate. Not milk chocolate, but dark dark chocolate.
