Double Green Ice Cream


May 20, 2010

Crunchie Cone grew up with us the way a chicken drumstick was stuffed, into our hands when the adults were preparing chicken. Sitting under the mushroom mosaics, even on another order; [Crunchie Cone] floating behind would leave enough tingling of memories that a special trip was made to push all the other orders away.

Its the dance of the subjects that made it recognisably Swensen's. Blue as may be, it brought out the lily pads more. This is a valuable piece of lamp portraying landscape in persepective, refreshing amongst the others in non-naturalistic themes.

Caramel Mint and Pistachio Crunchie Cone (SGD 6.00 ea)

And now on the (star)cone of the day. Yin and Yang. So who is the Yin? Inward-looking, dark, esoteric; its Caramel Mint. Green worn on the inside-out ice-cream come. Forward-looking, bright, explicit; its the Yang. Pistachio studded with naturally olive-green nuts.

Take a bite and you will get the squeeze of the sugars! The devilish-looking cone is so in-comprehensively hard and sweet that you fan yourself unwittingly(as though it was devil's chili). Through it though the cooling cream gives you the worth of its colour. Pistachio(its atoms were attractively salty!); savouriness made the dessert more appealing.

[Caramel Mint and Pistachio Crunchie Cone]. Peering closely you get a sense of it. Caramel Mint refers to the Yin, thin mint ice cream guarded by almond caramel. Pistachio refers to the Yang, pistachio guarding the mango ice cream. Read between the lines and hey presto, you get {teal} mint ice cream in a green pistachio coat! Now that would have been a double-green ice-cream.

P.S. Which one would have been greener? None, because you can't differentiate between the two just like the double in double-chocolate ice cream/milkshake.
