Weird Ice Cream Flavors

We’ve already discussed Classic Ice Cream Flavors, so let’s discuss some weird ice cream flavors. Here are some of the weirdest flavors of ice cream I’ve seen….and most of them are Japanese ice creams! Seems they have the most unusual flavors….
1. Octopus Ice Cream - A Japanese specialty, octopus ice cream is an ice cream flavor that will not appeal to everyone. Part delicacy, part weirdness, octopus ice cream has to be number one on this list!

2. Bacon and Egg Ice Cream - Yes, this one is true - I am not making this up. Apparently some British restaurant named The Fat Duck serves it.

3. Chicken Wing Ice Cream - Another Japanese specialty - ice cream that actually has the flavor of fried chicken wings. MMMmmmm…

4. Eel Ice Cream - Yes, another Japanese flavor!

5. Wasabi Ice Cream - Japanese of course. A tangy-wasabi flavored ice cream.

Fresh Peach Cobbler Flavor

Filed under: Flavors — Tags: , , , , , , , , — Mr. F.C. @ 3:26 pm

The flavor of fresh peach cobbler is a very southern flavor. Ideally, fresh peach cobbler should have a tasty blend of flavors including sweet flavor of summer peaches, mixed in with the fresh flavor of peach juice, and a special blend of explosive spice flavors to give the cobbler that special flavor, including either nutmeg or cinammon. Peach cobbler is a very filling dessert, and the flavor is comforting and familiar, and often reminds people of home or their grandma or grandparents house.

Recipes for peach cobbler abound - you’ll find creative recipes which make peach cobbler with a cake mix or a bisquick mix, peach cobbler with a double crust or a crispy crust. Even low-fat peach cobbler recipes. Check out Easy Peach Cobbler Recipes on recipezaar; experiment with the spices to get the pie flavor exactly the way you want it.

Beside peach cobbler itself, peach cobbler is also a popular summer icecream flavor - check out the Ben & Jerry’s Willie Nelson’s Country Peach Cobbler if you want to try it! It has cinnamon, sugar and shortbread pieces and is both an ice cream and pie enthusaists dream!

Classic IceCream Flavors - Chocolate & Vanilla

We all know there are 2 main classic ice cream flavors: Vanilla Ice Cream and Chocolate Ice Cream!

We recently discussed the vanilla classic ice cream flavor in an earlier post. In this post I want to talk about the other Classic Ice Cream Flavor: Chocolate.

Ice cream itself is a combination of milk, cream, sugar, and flavorings, whipped and frozen to form the frosty dessert we know as ice cream. You can add just about any flavor you want to “unflavored” ice cream….there is no question however that one of the most popular - and certainly the other classic flavor in addition to vanilla - is chocolate. Chocolate classic icecream flavor

Chocolate is added in a variety of ways to ice cream - it can come partially in vanilla ice cream in the form of flakes, chips, or swirls - or - ice cream can be completely 100% chocolate flavored!  Each of these different variations of adding the chocolate to the ice cream makes it taste different.  With flakes, the ice cream flavor will taste mostly like vanilla ice cream - basically because the chocolate freezes in little chip chunks.  If you are not chewing the icecream (which you probably are not) then the chocolate flakes disappear down your throat, practically untasted by your tongue.  Chocolate chips in the ice cream however will give you a little bit more chocolate taste.  Chips are big enough that you actually have to chew, so although they too are frozen, you are forced to chew the chips apart before swallowing, resulting in some chocolate flavor.  True chocolate connoisseurs however will go for complete chocolate icecream because it tastes the most like chocolate! It is smooth and you do not have to chew it.  The flavor will be mild and creamy and rich with a chocolate aftertaste. If you like things extra chocolaty, go for a richer flavor such as double chocolate, chocolate fudge, or brownie.In a word: delicious!  Want to make your own? The food network has a nice Chocolate Icecream recipe here.
