[Review] Coop Strawberry Rose cones

A while ago Co-op had these Strawberry Rose cones for Valentines day but I couldn't find them.
I didn't think they would restock them as Valentines day had already past.

On a recent visit in May, I was surprised to see them again so without hesitation I got them.
Coop Strawberry Rose Cones






They were so pretty so I ended up taking so many pictures before I ate it.
The cones were beautiful in the silver paper foil wrap as it went really well with the pink colour rose ice cream.
The rose ice cream was well protected by the dome shaped lid.







What was great about the Strawberry rose cones was that not only was it so beautiful but it tasted good.

Usually I am not confident with strawberry flavoured ice creams but the strawberry tasted natrual like freshly blended strawberry milkshake.
Beneath the strawberry icecream, the rest if vanilla icecream which gives it a nice balance in terms of colour and flavour.
The cone was green which my be off putting for some but as a food blogger, green is every where these days because of matcha and there are frankly more off putting colourful things these days like unicorn etc.

Overall, I was more than impressed with these Co-op Strawberry rose cones which are a must try!
Update May 2021:
A year later, they now sell these rose cones individually which makes sense because its quality and not quantity and great on a hot day if you are just out and about and want some ice cream without buying a box of four.

[Review] Kelly's Cornish Sticky Gingerbread Ice Cream

I love Cornish ice cream because it is so thick, creamy and fragrant.
Walls Cornish cream was one of my favourites but at the supermarket I discovered Kelly's of Cornwall ice cream made with clotted cream.

The tub was really nice, it was gold because it was the limited edition Sticky gingerbread while the regular tubs are silver which is also my favourite colour.



The edges of the tub have this nice wavy finishing that reminds you of an icecream parlour but the only complaint is that it is hard to open as you have to pry it open from the edge that is only on one side.

As well as the pretty tubs, you can visually see how nice the ice cream is and not flat like other brands.
The Sticky Gingerbread Flavour Dairy Ice Cream has Toffee Sauce, Fudge Pieces and Ginger Digestive Biscuit Pieces.

As expected it was thick and creamy with delicious fudge pieces while the ginger digestive biscuit pieces were not too over powering.
However it was a little hard to scoop out unlike their youtube commercial but then it came right out the freezer.


After trying this I am definitely tempted by their other flavours like the Eton mess and Cherry Bakewell.

[Review] Walls Viennetta Mint Ice Cream

Viennetta Ice Cream, first created in 1982 by Wall’s in Gloucester, and it has been a family favourite since as well as a popular demand in Asia.
It comes in two flavours, Vanilla and Mint.

Got the Viennetta Mint Ice Cream because mint and chocolate never fails.



When I took it out the box, the icecream layers and ripples were still intact.






It tasted just as good as expected with minty icecream and thin layers of chocolate.
There is also a Viennetta chocolate and orange which was disappointing.
