Favourite ice cream flavour?

60 replies

I want to make some ice cream today despite the weather but I don't want to make anything "normal" like vanilla, strawberry or chocolate.

What's your favourite ice cream flavour of all time? I need a bit of inspiration!

Delia has an amazing rhubarb crumble ice cream recipe

Mint choc chip or cookie dough

Can I have 2? If confined to one it'd be vanilla but if 2 I'll take cookie dough in addition 😬

Mint chocolate chip is my fave. Also lemon but you never see that anymore

TSSDNCOP · 15/06/2019 15:25

Rum and raisin

Mustbetimeforachange · 15/06/2019 15:27

Coffee ice cream. Or something fudgey.

Yes, @thefavourite, tablet ice cream is gorgeous, shop near me sell it.

On a school trip to France once I picked what I thought was mint choc chip.

It was pistachio.

It was a cruel blow.

I’ve never totally trusted mint choc chip since.

It’s been 40 years.

Coffee.

Then hazelnut.

Then stem ginger.

Delia’s lemon meringue ice cream is gorgeous. I try to make a few different flavours every year and this is one of the most popular.

I had an amazing pear ice cream in Barry Island a few weeks ago. It was delicious!

Pearlfish · 15/06/2019 15:59

Toffee with bits of fudge

Aberforthsgoat · 15/06/2019 15:59

Pistachio

Dulce de leche, pistachio, or coffee

Parma violet flavoured ice cream from the local ice cream parlour. It tastes like the sweets

checkoutchick22 · 15/06/2019 16:30

Banana.... sure it used to be everywhere but cant find it for love not money!

Disfordarkchocolate · 15/06/2019 16:33

Cherry

bengalcat · 15/06/2019 16:38

Pistachio and also Florentine ( chuck in florentines crushed and Baileys )

Unsureofthescore113 · 15/06/2019 16:41

White chocolate and cherry. Honestly the best I’ve ever had!

Stravapalava · 15/06/2019 16:43

Pistachio or peach melba.

MusterTheRohirim · 15/06/2019 16:47

I did some really lovely gooseberry and elderflower once. It was yogurt based rather than custard and incredibly delicious! I think the recipe was on BBC good food website.

evilharpy · 15/06/2019 16:51

YEsterday i had a scoop of pineapple (ice cream, not sorbet) and a scoop of coconut. It was perfect lovely creamy gorgeous stuff.

My favourite ice cream book is The Perfect Scoop by David Lebowitz. Check it out for lots of ideas.

Marzipan , walnut , pistachio, cake batter
