- Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?

Fairly satisfied - the children liked them.

- What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?

The price of £3.50 seemed expensive at first, but for 10 ice creams, it's not that bad, particularly if they're ever on special offer. I like that they're the right size for a small treat after dinner.

- What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?

We were unable to find these anywhere locally - not in Sainsbury's, Waitrose or Tesco.

- Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not

Yes - if the price was reasonable and comparable to e.g. Mini Milk.

- Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.

Yes, although they didn't seem massively Kinder-y. But as an after-dinner treat, they are fine.

- If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?

Maybe something like an ice-cream filled chocolate egg!

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Lovely tasty treats - the kids and adults were very happy with them

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
Liked the size of the perfect for the kids although the adults (dad!) ate 2 at a time!!! Would have liked more chocolate on the stick. Also perfect size for me on my slimming journey!
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
We all loved the ice cream sandwich - delicious
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
I would definately for myself as I love an ice cream treat that is small in size and calories and would also buy again for the kids as again it is a lovely size
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes would reccomend them although the price might put some people off as £3.50 is a lot when supermarket own brands are a lot cheaper for similar products - I would probably only buy them if I saw them on offer
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Something with a treat to it like the Kinder Eggs that is what my kids love the most!
purplepandas · 12/04/2019 16:36

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
The children adored it! So very pleased at my end as it means it is healthier than the usual ice cream.

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
Nothing to dislike. Both loved this and can be fussy so I was impressed that both were happy. Delicious was the word used. I think the size was good (not too big) and it was healthier than other options so a winner in my book. No dislikes to mention.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
They felt this was a bit small but I was less bothered by this. They liked the real biscuit and the icecream. Both products were winners in this house.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
Yes in terms of a more appropriate sized product and also health factors. But, the cost was too high.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes in terms of taste, health and the fact that children loved it. As above, cost was an issue and there are so many more competitively priced products.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Orange chocolate (maybe with natural yog)?

prob not due to the lack of taste

  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.

StressedMumOfTwo29 · 12/04/2019 17:44

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream? Really satisfied

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? Nothing they where really nice kind of reminded me of mini milks from when I was a kid.
What did your child like or dislike? No they loved them and they want me to buy again.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike? We haven't had a chance to find the sandwiches yet as my local tesco or waitrose don't have them

Gracesmummy9 · 12/04/2019 17:51

Loved the stick ones they were perfect we weren't to keen on the cones me and daughter didnt like sandwich ones but boyfriend loved the sandwiches.

Creas35 · 12/04/2019 17:55

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I felt the ice cream was quite bland but my son enjoyed it.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
Same as above
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
I think for the higher price point they don’t necessarily compete with supermarkets own brand that are potentially half the price
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes to try and for the calories but not necessarily taste
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Maybe mini tubs with more flavour
NickyH89 · 12/04/2019 18:02

Testers please answer the following questions:

  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Not very, I am a huge Kinder fan but felt these products were bland as did my child.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I did not get the ice cream stick.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
Bland, tasteless (me and my child)
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
No. Boring and too expensive.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.

Large tub with Bueno pieces/ sauce.
rupert23 · 12/04/2019 18:09
  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream? my son was not over keen he didnt really like the flavour it tasted a bit bland and boring he said
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
i like the size of the stick and thought it looked similar to mini milks. He thought the chocolate covering would be nice but did not like the flavour
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike? i liked the look of it he said the ice cream had no flavour and the wafer was soggy
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not. if my son liked them i would chose them over another snack but he was disappointed in them overall. i think the 10 lollies in a pack is a good idea and price was fair but they were not as good as we expected from kinder. i like the small portion size but would have expected better flavour.i would not recommend as my son did not like them
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be? a tub of ice cream tasting like kinder eggs or Bueno would be nice
thank you for letting us take part in this trial
clam77 · 12/04/2019 19:07

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Very satisfied

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I liked the flavour of both the chocolate and the ice-cream.I disliked that it was so small. My child liked the way the chocolate snapped when she bit into it and loved the flavour.My child didn’t dislike anything
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
I liked the size of the sandwich but found the taste too plain. My child don’t like this at all,she said it had no flavour and didn’t like the texture of the sandwich biscuit.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
I would choose kinder ice cream as a treat for both myself and my children.I like the fact it is made with fresh milk,it is a good price per pack and the stick and kinder Bueno cone taste delicious.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
I would recommend and have already to family and friends.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
An egg shaped ice cream with a different flavour in the middle.
HoneyDragon · 12/04/2019 19:30
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
Both my kids really like it, as did I. The marriage between chocolate and I’ve cream worked. We all would have preferred the chocolate to go down to the bottom though 😁
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
Kids weren’t keen thinking it would be wafer but it turned out to be their favourite as they loved the biscuity doughy stuff used for the outside. Big hit bit a surprising one.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
Yes. They like them and the size of good for a treat after dinner or in the summer.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes. They are pleasant and I think few visiting children would be put off from trying one.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Not an ice cream product I’m afraid but my kids have always said they would love it if Kinder did a plain chocolate bar just using the brown milk chocolate. They dream of this.
sewonandsewon · 12/04/2019 19:38
  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?

We enjoyed them - my daughter and I preferred the sandwiches and my son liked the sticks best.

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I liked the chocolate although would have preferred it slightly thicker. I liked the creaminess of the ice-cream but found it slightly bland. I liked the smaller size, which actually I think is more appropriate for younger children. The kids both really liked the chocolate and the lolly shape.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
Both my daughter and I liked the slightly soft biscuit layers and the creamy ice-cream. My daughter was surprised it wasn't wafer but this didn't bother her at all. She commented on the small size, but actually we both felt the portion was adequate.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
I would choose the sticks but not the sandwich, purely on price. £3.50 for 6 small sandwiches is far more than I'd be willing to pay. 10 sticks for £3.50 seems more reasonable, although I still feel it's on the expensive side.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
I would as a treat 'to try'. I would be more likely to buy them if they were on special offer.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Pot of ice cream, with kinder Bueno pieces and swirls of frozen kinder chocolate. Not to share with the kids though 🤣
shutzpa · 12/04/2019 19:40

Thanks for choosing us to test these 👍🏻

  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
My dd enjoyed hers but did say it doesnt taste anything like normal kinder chocolate.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I liked the size of them. Perfect for little hands ✋🏻
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
As above, perfect size.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
I dont think my dd would ask for these again, due to the taste.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
I dont think so, again due to flavouring, and also the price is a bit high in my opinion.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Something that tastes like actual kinder chocolate. Milky and hazelnutty flavours 👍🏻
JuneFromBethesda · 12/04/2019 20:10
  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Very satisfied. DD (8) says 'they were the most mouth-bombing things I've ever tasted' (she explains that means it was a flavour explosion in your mouth) Grin
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike? Adult verdict: the chocolate was nice but the icecream was tastless. Child verdict: I thought it was all amazing and I want to try more.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike? Adult verdict: it was quite bland and uninteresting. Child verdict: I thought it was delicious and I loved the chocolate on the top.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
I might as I liked the fact that they're under 100 calories, and I try to stick to the 100 calories or fewer rule for my children's snacks. Theyre easy to grab out of the freezer and easy to eat. They do seem a bit pricey though.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not. Yes because my kids really liked them, but with the caveat that they're not the cheapest snack option.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be? Adult verdict: to have more Kinder chocolate, to feel a bit more special and not cheap. Child verdict: to have sprinkles on it to give it more flavour.
KenDoddsDadsDog · 12/04/2019 20:22
  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Satisfied , not sure they live up to the hype
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
Good size packs - great for friends round. We both agreed they didn’t taste of much .
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
Really easy to eat - I love the nostalgia of an ice cream sandwich ! Nice flavour , not too sweet.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
Yes probably , the sandwiches especially are a little different
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes , but they wouldn’t be a must try
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Like an oyster - wafer, marshmallow and kinder ice cream
Harmonyb · 12/04/2019 20:30

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
We loved the kinder ice cream sandwiches, the sticks we're nice but quite plain my son however enjoyed these! We additionally bought the kinder ice cream cones and they were absolutely delicious! The best ones.

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
My son really enjoyed the ice cream sticks but I found them quite plain/boring I would say that they are good for young children though.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike? We enjoyed the ice cream sandwich again slightly plain but enjoyable.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not.
I think I would because my son really enjoyed these! I would definitely buy the kinder ice cream cones again they were great as well as the sandwichs.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes I think they are a great treat and have a few different choices to choose from. Overall impressed.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
It would have to be a tub of kinder ice cream with a chocolate topper!
Mummy2aRockstar · 12/04/2019 22:15

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
We loved the Kinder ice creams, they were the perfect size for a treat or a pudding.

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike? We loved the creamy flavour of both the stick and sandwich Kinder ice creams.
My son likes the Kinder stock ice cream so much he wanted a second because he loved how refreshing and delicious they were.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike? The sandwich Kinder ice cream is the perfect size for little ones and easy to eat. We did find that it just tasted of vanilla but it was still a delicious treat.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
Yes we would as they are the perfect size for a treat, refreshing and delicious.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes again as they are a good size and tasty.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be? A tub of ice cream with pockets of the bueno cream.
RhubarbAndMustard · 13/04/2019 07:37
  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Really satisfied. My children usually go for Fabs, Twisters or Knobbly Bobbly's so I thought they would find these to 'young' and boring...but I was very wrong. Both my 6 and 3 year old really liked them, with lots of 'Mmmmm yummy' noises!
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
They liked that it was half chocolate covered and half just vanilla. They really liked the ice cream vanilla flavour. I liked that it wasn't too big and covered in highly coloured sprinkles.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
My 6 year old said 'I just liked everything about it!'. I think the shape was quite novel for them and made it easier for my 3 year old to eat without bits falling everywhere.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
Yes I would as my boys are big ice cream fans and they really liked them. I like that they seem a slightly healthier choice than other similar ice creams on the market, but the pack cost is quite high at £3.50, although you do get a lot in a box.
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes I would but I think the cost would put a few off.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Maybe more fun shapes for the kids so they look a bit more exciting. Or mini tubs (like you get mousse in) with a mini spatula for little kids to eat more easily.
BuddhaBelly · 13/04/2019 08:35

Testers please answer the following questions:

  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
We both liked them, but were disappointed that it didn't taste like the kinder egg
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I like the fact that it is a healthy treat perfect size for kids. My child loved the ice cream.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
Again it's a healthy treat, tasted nice but quite expensive for what it is. My child didn't like this one but is fussy over textures
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
The ice cream stick definitely but is still a little pricey
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
I would recommend to try as a treat, especially as it meets the required nutritional guidelines which a lot of parents look at
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
An ice cream that tasted exactly like the kinder eggs
giveovermypreciousss · 13/04/2019 09:57

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice cream? It was ok, just ok.
What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? It was very expensive for the size and content of what is essentially a mini milk.
What did your child like or dislike? Disliked the size however liked the chocolate on it.
What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? I again disliked the proze and the soze does not reflect what you are paying. What did your child like or dislike? Dc felt as it is kinder which for us is a chocolate based company, it really should have had sone chocolate in there. Also one bite and its gone. Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Not a chance. Please explain why or why not?other better ice creams for low calories and good proces are available. Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not. No, again the price is atrocious for the size of the ice creams.
If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be? A kinder egg styled ice cream which has a toy inside. Keep the fun!

Goingovertosusanshouse · 13/04/2019 11:19

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike? I liked the size of the ice creams, the children loved the taste.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike? We weren’t as keen on these because they were messier and trickier to eat!

  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Yes, they were very tasty.

Kinder egg with ice cream centre.

  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Pretty pleased. Good kids sized portions.

Not much chocolate. I love that it's on 3 points on weight watchers!

A little plain / bland.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
If they were on offer yes, but at £3.50 they are quite expensive.

Yes, I don't see why not. Quite a nice little treat.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
Mini frozen cheesecakes!
AppleDragon · 13/04/2019 16:58

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?
Very satisfied: both ice creams were delicious

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?
I liked the small size and taste of the ice cream stick. You could tell that it was Kinder chocolate. Three of the sticks broke in half when they were unwrapped which was a pity - all at the bottom of the chocolate. My 3 year old and 7 year old both said that they were yummy.
  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?
I loved the softness of the wafer although my husband said that he prefers a traditional crunchy wafer. I liked the fact that they were small enough to be held manageably by children without bits falling off or melting. I also felt that they were appropriately sized for a treat. My children loved the biscuit and liked the fact that there was nothing to put in the bin afterwards.
  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not
Yes I would due to the small size and how much they liked them .
  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.
Yes I would as I think people would enjoy the Kinder chocolate taste.
  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?
I would like some element of Bueno to be incorporated: some crunch or hazlenut flavour.
Wolfcubisthefemalenominal · 13/04/2019 18:43

Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?

Quite satisfied

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick?

So I thought 10 ice lollies at 35p per lolly wasn’t that bad when you broke it down. Though I appreciate you can get cheaper. They were similar to a mini milk with a partial chocolate coating. I would have liked more chocolate coating but I thought they were nice and I wouldn’t turn my nose up at one. I would also be quite happy to give one as an after school snack knowing the fat/sugar/calorie control. Ice cream would normally only be a treat pudding.

However, they don’t taste kinder enough for me, I love kinder bars/buenos/hippos and I wasn’t blown away by the flavour match.

What did your child like or dislike?

He asked what the middle was supposed to taste like so I’m not sure the kinder flavour was working for him either. But he liked the lolly and thought it tasted nice and liked the chocolate covering.

He didn’t like that it was all the same texture.

He said it was better than the wafer bar.

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Sandwich? What did your child like or dislike?

I thought they tasted nice but again not noticeably kinder. Even when well melted it stayed together well so not at all messy.
I liked the pattern on the biscuit and I liked the taste of the biscuit but the biscuit texture was odd. Perhaps a very thin layer of chocolate or something between ice cream and biscuit is needed to stop the sogginess. Overall I thought biscuit as an idea was good and better than wafer but execution needed a bit of work.

First thing ds said was “does it have any chocolate on it?” He says “I think it should have a thin layer of chocolate in but the biscuit is slightly too salty”, he said “I like the amount of biscuit to ice cream. I also like the flavour of the ice cream”. He would eat one again if it had chocolate in.

  • Would you choose Kinder Ice Cream as a treat for you or your children over other similar treats? Please explain why or why not

Yes because I thought they tasted nice and I like the calorie and content confidence plus as it’s kinder my child will think “treat” more than a mini milk or a plain choc ice and won’t realise they are being stiffed on the fat and bad stuff!

However £3.50 seems a bit steep for the ice cream bars particularly and I’d be more likely to buy them on offer

  • Would you recommend Kinder Ice Cream to friends or family? Please explain why or why not.

Yes. I think my nieces would particularly like them and I know my SIL will appreciate the calorie content and size. I think they are a great little snack but I’d like to see the price reduce and a bit more of that kinder flavour

  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?

OMG if there were no barriers I’d love a (big grown up size) kinder wafer hippo stuffed with kinder flavour ice cream.

mctrouser · 13/04/2019 21:19

Finally, I managed to find some in stock! But only the Sticks, still haven't been able to find the Sandwich.

  • Overall, how satisfied were you and your child with Kinder Ice Cream?

Fairly.

  • What did you like or dislike about Kinder Ice Cream Stick? What did your child like or dislike?

Me: It melted quickly and the chocolate top seemed very top-heavy and started falling off at an angle very quickly. The chocolate tasted good though. However, the ice cream was just the same as a vanilla Mini Milk - I'd expected a white chocolate flavour.

The kids (aged 2, 4 & 6) had no complaints though and really enjoyed it!

Probably not - for the price, they were nothing special.

Not really - nothing special about it.

  • If Kinder Ice Cream was launching a new product, what would you like it to be?

Something that tasted more like kinder egg chocolate!
