Now that warm weather and longer days are here, we're having the odd spontaneous trip out for icecream. Michael was ready to try some more novelty flavours from Fluffy Torpedo, and we had appetites for two scoops each ($9.10 each).
Michael hit on a winner with the top-listed blue cheese roasted fig brown sugar jam, a combination that sits well on a cheeseboard and also, it turns out, in an icecream cone. His accompanying miso cinnamon white chocolate faded pleasantly into the background, not forming as strong an impression.
I tried the famous Vegemite white chocolate icecream. The first mouthful was distinctly Vegemitey, though I again rapidly desensitised to it and experienced most of the scoop as vanilla malt (which wasn't a problem). My second scoop was the irrepressible salted chilli pineapple coconut vinegar sorbet, which reminded me of sweet chilli sauce in its flavour and viscosity.
Credit to Fluffy Torpedo for offering such a lengthy menu of adventurous flavours - they'll never please every person with every flavour, but it's always a memorable experience. And the ones that hit right are appreciated all the more for their uniqueness.
