There’s something about alcohol in ice cream that always gets me. I’m not even that big of a drinker normally and would rarely drink rum at all but once you put it in ice cream its like a match made in heaven that I can’t get enough of. Others obviously agree which is why ‘Rum… Read More »
This was one of those flavors where I was intrigued about whether you could actually make an ice cream that tasted like apple pie or is it just a name with a vague association to the flavors. On this occasion I was pleasantly surprised as the result tastes remarkably similar to apple pie and is… Read More »
