    FYI - I pulled the trigger and got Jeni's Brown butter almond brittle. I had a taste and it was pretty great. It was a little soft so i havent eaten a serving yet. It's in the freezer waiting for me.

    Side note: I have issues. This is what I paid for 3 ice creams. $1 off this receipt was Advil.

    Well? I'm dying to know how it is. I really want to try that one but they don't have it at my store.

    The Target mini donut ice cream was very impressive. Pretty low-cal, very creamy and tasty, and the bits of donut were spot on.


    I've just discovered that the ice cream maker that I thought I sold at a yard sale last summer was actually still in the recesses of my cabinets. It's a Cuisinart Flavor Duo and it makes 2 flavors at once.

    Hook me up with some recipes? The more unusual, the better...I found one for basil ice cream, and we have a wealth of basil in our garden.

    Oh 2 flavors at once I would get myself into trouble! Check out our recipe thread there's not too many unusual flavors in there but I posted a link for icecreamnation.com and they have some different recipes

    I dipped into that Maple Flavored Jif Whips yesterday and it is badass! I've got the Market Pantty Mini Donuts pre-logged for later. Will report back!

    Adding to the grocery list, I've been holding off on buying this so if it sucks it's all your fault :heart:

    So I did try Jeni's BBAB. The first spoon I was like eh, that's the hype? But the next spoons I was like "Well damn, this ice cream is pretty damn good". Everyone that said that you should try it at least once. I'm glad I got it by I'm not seeing myself paying 14 dollars to get more. I just think that's an abusive price.

    That's why you should sign up for their newsletter and wait for them to have a big sale. I feel a "little" better about my Balducci's purchase now. I paid $24.63 for the 3 in the picture I posted last week. I'm not getting that Halo Top again. I was in major distress at the gym! :laugh:

    Went to a new grocery store that opened recently in my city, it's sort of a gourmet or specialty grocery store-sort of what I imagine Trader Joe's is like, if we had them in Canada.
    I mostly went to scope out their baked goods and ice cream section. Haha.
    Anyway, I got some hazelnut gelato there that is out of this world. I love hazelnuts so I wasn't disappointed. It is nice and smooth with the occasional chunk of hazelnut. I'll post pictures in a day or 2 :)
    I think I'm going to have to try affogato with this-I love hazelnuts and coffee!

    Quoting myself to post pictures of my hazelnut gelato...easily in the top 3 ice cream/gelatos I've ever had.

    I'm mad because I bought one of the brown butter to try and the whole thing is so freezer burned I won't be able to try it. I have the receipt but I won't be back in the area for a couple of weeks so I don't know if I'll bother taking it back.

    My Target doesn't have the Market Pantry donut flavor. I am sad. Oh well, I picked up more hazelnut Talenti.

    It's one of the best tasting ice creams I've had. Very similar to Ben & Jerry's Cinnamon Buns; except 1/2 the calories :)

    You had me at tasting like Cinnamon Buns! I might have to make a stop at a Target soon. I also looked at two stores today to see if I could find those Jif Whips you found & found nada.

    See if you can call into the store & have them write a note of when you'll be back in to get a refund or another package.

    Well that's awesome especially after the price you paid. I'd be irritated and would have gone back the same day.

    Side note: I've tried to get Dora to eat different flavors and brands and they just sit in the freezer. She keeps going back to Talenti Caribbean Coconut or Peanut Butter Cup. I give up. She is more of a creature of habit than I am.

    I live an hour away from the store so I wasn't really willing to go back today. Otherwise I would have.

    Tonight's new flavour I tried. It was seriously delicious, if you love ice cream and cinnamon buns, ugh.. just so good with little bits of cinnamon bun, and the "icing" swirl through it. :love:

    cinnabonicecream_zpse4a87a03.png

    I'm not totally sure but I think it may just be a Canadian brand, they've come out with some neat flavours and have my favourite chocolate peanut butter ice cream of all time.

    Their birthday cake one's good, want to try the salted caramel and considering PB&J but not sure how that would be as an ice cream flavour...

    Haha, it's so true though :laugh:
    Usually have to make a trip over the border to find the good stuff sometimes. It was weird when I visited Ireland though. While things are different there, I felt like there wasn't as much variety as I was used to, so I guess we have a decent selection but whenever I go over to the U.S it's pretty exciting finding all the different options and flavours of things that Canada doesn't have or just hasn't gotten yet haha.

    I had PB&J ice cream at an all-you-can-eat ice cream fundraiser recently. It was freaking delicious! It also won most creative flavor, and 2nd place overall.

    I don't think so-- I've never seen one anyway.
