No. 14: Ben & Jerry’s ‘Wich; not too bad of an ice cream. The cookie part is a bit dry and tasteless, but the ice cream is naturally very good. If the cookie would be on a par with the ice cream this one would taste marvellous, but as it is it ranks for me as an “okay/good” ice cream.
No. 13: Pingviini (vanilla); pretty basic but and good comes with “a twist”…! First of all, this one also has some strawberry dressing on it which you wouldn’t expect to find based on the packaging. Second of all… Try finding one, seriously. Even though it would seem to be one of the most basic ice creams there is, and one which you would expect to be found from everywhere, it really isn’t that common of an ice cream. One of my favourites though (with or without the treasure hunt element).
Ha, almost forgot to post! No. 12: Mars; the think I like about this one is that it is small and handy to eat while being on the go. It tastes good too and is a summer classic. (at K-market Ritaharju)
No. 11: Daim; easily the best one of the three I’ve has this week, although the strawberry one was great too. The combination of vanilla and Daim just nails it after working outside for the whole day.
No. 10: Daim Strawberry Dream; first strawberry flavoured one for this summer! Pretty much identical to yesterday’s (and tomorrow’s) ice cream, except that it has strawberry instead of pear ice cream within. Really good taste and a good blend of chocolate and strawberry flavours. Easily in top 10.
No. 9: Daim Pear Dream; if you’ve had the original Daim ice cream, this is exactly the same except for the vanilla ice cream being pear ice cream. The taste is good and the ice cream’s is nice and big when comes to its size (always a plus I guess ;)). A good choice, but probably not making my top 10 because I like some other flavours more than I like pear.
