My favourite Kelly's Cornish brand has gone up to £4.10 a tub! The dc would go through a tub in 2 servings each so that's a dear do. I only get it when on offer.

What's your brand of choice? And what his our too while we are at it Grin

I love vanilla, and honeycomb. Can't stand chocolate ice cream. Cheshire Ice cream farm is probably my ultimate brand but only available at the deli down the road.

The Waitrose white chocolate ice cream and ginger ice cream are nice too actually.

@Tinkletwat - have to take the DCs there when we're allowed to go!

B&J Birthday Cake. Always.

My very very favourite is the Co-Op Venezuelan chocolate. Silky smooth rich chocolate flavour with veins of chocolate sauce - so much nicer than chocolate chips/chunks in my opinion. But I can't eat chocolate any more so this will just have to be a distant memory.... 😭

I'm dairy free so ben and Jerry's, oatly (but leaves a vile oily coating in your mouth) and the roar ones are good. Husband loves salted caramel Hagen das which is horrible because I know it's so good and I can't have it.

I’m in Wales- so it’s always Joes Ice cream, and it’s always vanilla! Yum!

We don't have ice cream that often as it never lasts and we never have the freezer space. But when we do it's Coconut and Lime or Salted Caramel and White Chocolate from Waitrose. Deeeeliscious

Oblomov20 · 19/12/2020 14:28

Kelly's Cornish is also my favourite for vanilla ice cream.

WineNotTheLabel · 19/12/2020 14:32

Swedish Glace blueberry and coconut (vegan and gf).

Waitrose Pistachio

Love a bday cake ice cream, Halo is good.

HelebethH · 19/12/2020 14:35

Kelly Cornish or Lidl Creme Brulee

I'm lactose-intolerant but I risk it once a year to eat "Hagen Daz Coffee" ice cream.

Fifthtimelucky · 19/12/2020 14:40

Haagen Daas and Mackie's are my favourites.

Unfortunately the only Mackie's I can get locally is vanilla, so when I want other flavours I go for Haagen Daas

Sparklfairy · 19/12/2020 14:43

B&J peanut butter cup or banana. My absolute favourite ice cream flavour is pistachio, it's always what I have on holiday but the ones I've tried here have a strange artificial aftertaste Sad

M4J4 · 19/12/2020 15:48

@Sparklfairyi hear you, we had pistachio flavour in Laguna Beach and it was OOTW!

Will try Waitrose’s.

EveryoneOutsideNow · 19/12/2020 15:56

Strachens honeycomb flavour from Aldi

sueelleker · 19/12/2020 16:05

I get the Haagen-Dazs mini pots-vanilla collection and chocolate collection.

littlecrocodiles · 19/12/2020 16:05

Lidl's own version of B&J cookie dough. Half the price and just as good, if not better. They do other flavours too

Bitcherama · 19/12/2020 16:26

Taywells. In the supermarket, Mackie's.

FestiveFannyGallops · 19/12/2020 21:56

Does anyone remember Haagen Dazs margherita lime sorbet? I used to get that from the HD café in Windsor back in 1999. The raspberry sorbet was amazing too and I'd have a scoop of both. I know it's not ice cream but Ive just remembered about it. I find a lot of dairy products leave a strange taste in my mouth and ice cream is the latest thing to cause this. I get it with milk, chocolate, and uncooked cheese too. I'm lactose intolerant though and fart like a maxibus after lots of dairy Blush
I've always wondered why banana ice cream isn't something we see in the UK very much.

Blackcurrant and clotted cream, local farm near me make it.

What brand and flavour of ice cream do you buy?
WhatsTheEffingPoint · 20/12/2020 01:15

New Forest Ice Cream.....so many yum flavours. 😋

Pumpkinstace · 20/12/2020 01:23

My favourite is the cherry mascarpone one by carte dor. I don't think you can get it any more.

I buy my ice cream from the Cheshire ice cream farm because we are local.

JemimaTab · 20/12/2020 01:29

I normally go for a nice vanilla, but another favourite is Jude’s flat white coffee ice cream. It’s delicious!

79andnotout · 20/12/2020 01:46

Hackney gelato pistachio and lemon. Would kill for some right now but Ocado delivery slots are like gold dust at the mo.

Mumof1fun · 20/12/2020 01:48

the magnum double choc/ salted caramel tubs are heaven...but very dangerous diet wise
