Haagen daaz dulce de leche but they've hardly ever got it anywhere.
failing that, HD pralines and cream
or I had a lovely lemon meringue pie one once long ago

Phish food is LOVELY. All chocolately and caramelly and marshmallowy and has fish made out of chocolate. I seem to vaguely remember its named after a rock band called Phish.

I like two:

B&J Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Gu Vanilla - I think it's the nicest vanilla you can get from the supermarket and is lovely with Gu choclate brownie's sprinkled on top.

MascaraOHara · 26/09/2007 12:43

G&B's chocolate ice cream

peskipixie · 26/09/2007 12:49

Green & Black's vanilla

phish food is good though, and their caramel one (can't remember the name)

where is that CD?

MaryAnnSingleton · 26/09/2007 13:50

Skinny Cow mintal is very nice indeed !

Sheherazadethegoat · 26/09/2007 13:52

yeo valley is lovely as is mackies (but i think they might only be in scotland). i like my icecream hydrogenated fat free!

Blu · 26/09/2007 13:56

Mackies is my favourite vanilla, being slightly more grainy and icy and Italiante than ones like H-D and B&B, which can be a bit sickly.

I don't like B&J - too sickly and full of bits of stuff - more like a mars bar bunged in the freezer than ice cream.

GU choc - very very dark and bitter (for ice cream) - fab.

MaryAnnSingleton · 26/09/2007 13:59

yes,Mackies is very nice - I love plainj vanilla ice cream best of all

feetheart · 26/09/2007 14:05

Home-made, everytime................

Lilymaid · 26/09/2007 14:09

Agree with the home made though for ordinary bought vanilla ice cream Mackies is a cut above most. You can get it from Sainsburys, Waitrose (organic version of course) and the Co-op in my area of East Anglia.

saltire · 26/09/2007 14:09

Mackies is the best kind to get in the supermarket, unfortunately I can't get it down here.

noddyholder · 26/09/2007 14:10

mr whippy

Piffle · 26/09/2007 14:12

ben and jerry too sweet IMO esp phish food

I adore and am addicted too Haagen Dazs dulce de leche and their ltd edition mango and passionfruit
to die for
Am actually eating dulce de leche now
oh the liberty of breastfeeding and needing these calories

sonicthegoldfish · 26/09/2007 14:12

B&J Cherry Garcia is fab. Cherry ice cream with dark chocolate chunks....cannot be beaten IMO.

CountessDracula · 26/09/2007 14:47

kewcumber it's down teh little alley with the chocolate shop on teh corner on Richmond Green. One alleyway towards the station from the one with White Stuff in it

policywonk · 26/09/2007 14:52

Granola, lemon and blueberry from Waitrose.

Kewcumber · 26/09/2007 14:53

ta - don;t often go into richmond but should try that. Those choclates are divine. Sushimummy bought me some as a present - offer to swap DS for a bigger box if she had one.
