My stockpile in the freezer at home is still going strong. This morning as I was drinking my morning smoothie I excused myself from the kitchen and told my sister, I’ll be back I am going shopping. I walked to the garage freezer and stood there and analyzed each flavor and chose the one that most fit me today.
Boston Cream Pie Verdict:
I was fortunate enough to have been able to visit Boston this past June. I had intentions of staying 5 days. Well that turned into 7 days and I LOVED it. I had the GREATEST tour guide, my cousin Kim. The great thing about having a local as a tour guide is that you get to see everything and more. Plus you don’t get lost along the way. SCORE! I could go on for a few pages of how great the trip was, but I will keep it simple. I not only got to meet my cousin Kim for the first time when she picked me up at Logan International Airport, but I got to meet a few new friends along the way. Some I don’t talk to anymore (only facebook stalk now) and a few that I still communicate with. One of my most memorable appropriate memories of the trip was on the first day there. We went into the city to grab some coffee and Kim informed me that Bostonians are not the friendliest people, and wouldn’t talk to you. Well while on the patio drinking our drinks not only did I get our picture taken, but I also got tour advice from the so-called “unfriendly” Bostonians. Yes, I rubbed that one in as we walked away after finishing our drinks.
Boston Cream Pie Ice Cream with Yellow Cake Pieces, Fudge Flakes & Swirls of Pasty Cream
Even though I didn’t have Boston Cream Pie while in Boston, this flavor fueled the memories of the trip. Going along this journey I have found that I like ice cream that is easily scoop-able from the container. This is a sure winner; it came out like butter. Once again I am going to stress how sometimes simplicity is the best. The yellow cake pieces are perfect…when mixed with the ice cream it’s like you’re eating an ice cream cake. The fudge pieces and the swirls of pastry cream add the perfect amounts of sweetness. With some of the other flavors the ingredients were too dominant, to chunky and too difficult to scoop. Boston Cream Pie has the perfect combinations of everything. I have been spoiled two weeks in a row now; I don’t want to go back to those days of misfortune of bad flavors.
Michelle: I know you are anxiously awaiting this review for you own tasting later…but I am going to step out on a limb and say you will enjoy this flavor. Will you enjoy it as much as I did? I don’t know. But I don’t want to be verbally abused, or have to call my lawyer on behalf of deformation coming from you. You may be family, but we are both feisty Italians so use caution.
