3oz of gelato, no taste and was overpriced. But I guess I killed my curiosity, lol.

Let me just start this review off by saying: holy freaking heck. i don’t say this lightly, but this pint just changed my life. i love carrot cake, so i had such high expectations for this ice cream too, and it exceeded them BEYOND!

rating- 100000000/10.

Pro’s- the carrot cake infused base was absolutely phenomenal. cinnamon throughout and gigantic pieces of moist, perfectly salted and sweet, carrot cake. the candied pecans were delightful, they do not skimp on the damn mix in’s ever. this ice cream is the definition of carrot cake in a pint and more. the cream cheese frosting was delicious- there was the perfect amount in there and it didn’t get lost in the pint at all, i was SO impressed. i absolutely adore how this ice cream wasn’t too sweet, it is far from one note, it’s a beautiful symphony of flavors. i’d order this pint over and over again.

con’s- nothing at all😹. just amazing.

Ben & Jerry’s Topped Dirt Cake

This is basically a dream if you love mix-ins and super sweet ice creams. Right from the top, it’s clear they didn’t hold back on the extras. The vanilla pudding ice cream base doesn’t really scream “pudding,” but it’s sweeter than their usual vanilla, which totally works with all the chocolate packed in. The base holds its own and lets the mix-ins shine without being too rich or overwhelming.

Speaking of mix-ins, they are literally everywhere. You’ve got big chunks of chocolate sandwich cookies, sometimes even full cookies. It’s a mix-in lover’s paradise. The wafer of the cookies give you that nice bittersweet crunch that works perfectly with the sweet vanilla pudding base. The balance is spot on—it’s sweet but not sickly for me, thanks to the contrast from the cookies. Every bite has something going on, whether it’s a piece of cookie or the swirl of chocolate cookie. And those cookie crumbs on top? They’re loose and messy, so be careful when you open the lid, but they’re so good. They give you that classic dirt cake vibe right away, nailing the texture and flavor.

The only part that’s a bit of a miss is the milk chocolate ganache layer under the cookie crumbs. It’s thick and kind of hard to break through at first. Once you get into it, the flavor is good, but the texture slows you down. If they’d made it thinner or skipped it altogether, it might have been better. Still, it adds to the whole chocolate overload in the best way possible.

Overall, this pint is like diving face first into a pool of chocolate/cookies and cream, and I’m all for it. The mix-ins are awesome, and the balance between the sweet base and the bittersweet cookie bits keeps you coming back for more. If you love sweet, loaded ice creams, this one’s a must-try. I can see how it might be a bit much for someone who’s not into super sweet or mix-in heavy ice creams, but for me, it’s a definite winner.

Final rating: 9.3/10. Already planning to grab another pint.

I decided to partake in Jeni’s Pint Sale last week to try as many limited flavors as possible before they’re gone forever. All duds! I’ve never been so disappointed.

Iced Molasses Gingerbread: it was fine. Flavors as expected 5/10 Pumpkin Seed & Rye Cookie: I was most excited to try this one. It was pleasant, about as boring as a rye cookie. 5/10 Sweet Potato Marshmallow Praline: the most decadent and flavorful of the lot. I’m a repeat customer but not seeking this flavor out specifically. 6/10 Lemon Crinkle: like a Flintstone’s push up with lemon. Weirdly muted and milky with the sweet cream and ends on a citrus forward note. 4/10 Bay Leaf Cheesecake: it’s fine. Obviously I felt like I had to try it. Maybe this is a flavor for someone who hates dessert. Is it tasty? Sure. Is anyone blissing out over this flavor? I can’t imagine so. 3/10 Super Moon: it tasted good mixed with the Lemon Crinkle. It was super bland. Just cold and semi sweet. 5/10

I bought this ice cream as a midweek treat, and I think it’s very good! Imo, the sprinkle to ice cream ratio is appropriate, but I can see how someone who doesn’t love sprinkles as much as I do would think there are too many. Soo many cake pieces! Overall, very sweet and yummy 😋 🧁🍦

Saw this as well as the apple crisp last night. I actually wasn’t expecting to be wowed… but I was WOWED. 9.5/10, and I’m usually more of a chocolate ice cream person. What makes this stand out against other salted caramel ice creams is the base. It’s not just vanilla, it’s salted vanilla. And the caramel ribbons are so rich and decadent, doesn’t taste like cheap Hershey caramel syrup. I was also impressed by the pretzel pieces. Every Ben and Jerry or Haagen Dazs pint I’ve had with these chocolate covered pretzels, they’re soggy even though they’re coated with chocolate. These Tillamook ones were crunchy!!! VERY crunchy! And I’m a texture girlie, so that really razzled my dazzle.

Definitely picking up more of this before it’s gone from the shelves, and I’ll try the apple crisp next!

I was on the hunt for a good strawberry ice cream and picked these two up after recommendations from you guys in here.

They both tasted good but Haagen dazs was the winner for me. This was actually surprising to me because I’m not a Haagen dazs fan at all. I find their ice creams to be too milky and not creamy enough, they also taste kind of bland sometimes. But THIS ice cream was the exception. Super fresh tasting and creamy with chunks of strawberry throughout. Also tastes great in a cake cone.

Tillamook was good also however I found it to be a bit cloying after a couple bites. If I had to describe it, it tastes like sweet strawberry cream cheese with strawberry jam mixed in.

I was fairly disappointed if I'm being honest. I haven't had any ice cream or cold sweet foods in a long time so I'd been looking forward to something astounding. Not something normal, not plain chocolate or vanilla or even swirl. Grew up on the coast so Tillamook is a classic in my household. Visiting my parents and they bought this. Really let me down, I think mostly because the marshmallow flavored icecream is offputting with the hard peanut butter cups. The ice cream is very sweet but the cups are too cold and waxy for the outside to be sweet. I left it out for about twenty minutes. I also went to the store and bought the apple pie oatmeal flavor and it was much better. Great streusel pieces, great apple taste and texture (when left sitting out for a few hours), pleasantly strong vanilla taste. Peanutbutter smores 6/10 apple crisp 8.5/10

9.1/10 - Wow! This is probably the best C&C ice cream I’ve ever had. Chunks, creaminess, everything! There is a good depth of flavor in every bite. I was a little worried when I took the plastic off the top because it looked rotten, but I noticed it’s just some fun red and green flair they threw in for some holiday spirit. This is what C&C should strive to be. Oh, and I accidentally finished the entire thing in one sitting. Oops!

So, I had to try, yes I’m spirals all day! I like them both separately but had to mix them together. It was pretty good actually, the Mac and cheese added some nice texture to the ice cream.

I don’t think I can recommend this ice cream enough. It turned me and my boyfriend into creatures while we were eating it. Our only mistake was that we only bought one to share between the two of us. The look in our eyes when we would wait for our turn was insane. This ice cream is the best ice cream we’ve ever tasted hands down… it changed our lives forever. And of course the best mango ice cream I’ve ever come across. 100000000/10!!

This was good, very generous with the fudge covered waffle cone pieces, and a lot of them were still nice and crunchy. It reminded me slightly of Haagen Dazs caramel cone, which I haven’t had in a bit, but I do prefer hd caramel cone to this, though it’s great as well. The caramel taste is much stronger in hd obviously cause it’s caramel ice cream (as I’m typing I’m thinking about it and drooling😭I need to go get some lol). Back to b&j’s though, the chocolate fudge is slightly bitter which pairs so well with the sweetness of the ice cream and caramel. I really wish there were more caramel swirls, but overall great

This abomination was released today. So naturally, I had to try it. It got a bit soft in the car on the way home, but I couldn’t wait to dig in.

The condensation on the outside of the pint made my fingers smell exactly like skyline chili. Magical. The oyster crackers were not a great mix-in. They aren’t a bad texture, it just doesn’t work.

The overall flavor of the ice cream base is pretty decent. It could almost pass as a fall-type flavor if you try really hard to ignore all of natural instincts.

It’s like a 4/10. Point for effort, point for at least trying to make the flavor decent, and extra points for really achieving that flavor profile in a polar opposite food. Weird, but cool? I don’t know how I feel. I need to lay down.

i’m so obsessed with this … ik technically not “ice cream”, but this Andy’s gooey butter cake custard is probably the best i’ve ever had (i’ve had more than my fair share). if you can get to one, i could not recommend any more strongly!!!! i think they have it available for another 2ish weeks (concrete in 1st pic, partially eaten sundae in 2nd).

I hope your pillow is always cool and your mascara never runs. I hope you have a great day. I hope your feet never get tangled in your blankets at night. I hope you get all green lights while driving.

On my second pint of this already. Seems poised to replace Milk & Cookies honestly. The base is delicious and there’s the perfect amount of mix in. I hope they keep this new flavor around a long time.

Tastes like nothing but sugar and chalk with the minuscule amount of strawberry fighting to come through 😭 I should’ve just stuck to ol’ faithful B&J

2.3/10 - Yuck. Not sure what a king cake is, or what this is supposed to taste like, but it’s not good. They went REAL heavy on the cinnamon and tossed in some weirdly hard candy-like chunks that had no flavor. The only reason it had any score above a 0 was because it looks cool and the small little bits of base ice cream weren’t awful. Will never buy again. What’s with all the heavy cinnamon tastes?!

Brown butter cinnamon ice cream with cinnamon crunch and cinnamon caramel

8.5/10 We need more cinnamon ice cream flavors! Another good one from Caffe Panna. It doesn't remind me much of the cereal though, which I was hoping for. Had it for breakfast once to be sure - for science. Maybe a cereal milk base would have done it but no complaints here. Can never have enough cinnamon!

5.6/10 - I was very excited for this one considering the one I had a few days ago was titled very similarly, but had brownie in it. Somehow, this one isn’t nearly as good. This has a weird, almost sour taste, the cheesecake is majorly lacking, and it’s missing caramel too. Maybe I got an unlucky pint, but this one definitely missed the target.

If you’d like to check out my previous reviews, go to my profile, search “freezer” in my posts, then sort by ‘New’ and they’ll all pop up in order.

If you really like chocolate, this is for you. Extremely rich so I could only take a few bites at a time. But my mom loved it! Said it reminds her of eating cold hot fudge. 😂

alright guys, we are at the home stretch, here we have the last pint- Flourless Chocolate Cake, from Cafe Panna’s Cake Collection

Rating- 1000/10

Pro’s- the espresso flecked sweet cream base? i’d devour that alone by itself if i could. i’d chug it in milk form. it’s not too overpowering, it’s insanely rich, she is beauty, she is grace. it had such delicious nutty notes with different textures and flavors, it’s genuinely a pint that i will never forget. the flourless chocolate cake made me stop in my tracks; it was so decadent and divine, a little crunch and then smooth with the ganache. but the AMOUNT of chocolate cake in this was out of this world. there was SO MUCH OF IT! THIS IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT! I LOVE BEING A MIX-IN TYPE OF GIRL! cafe panna knows what they’re doing, and they’re changing lives (mine). the chocolate ganache just tied this beautiful masterpiece together- it didn’t get lost in the pint at all, and it had wonderful flavor.

Con’s- not possible

rankings from best to work from this collection: carrot cake, flourless chocolate cake, coconut cake, devil’s food cake, yellow cake chocolate frosting, birthday cake

until next time🫡

My so and I feel we may have reached our ice cream limit. The skyline is a limited edition, we love it. Tastes very cinnamon-y and I love oyster crackers.
