Magnum Ice Cream: Chocolate Truffle & Classic



Selecta has recently released their new shoe-in to the cut-throat market of good Ice Cream. Brands such as DQ, Nestle and Magnolia have been coming with different kinds of Ice Cream and Select is not one to back down from these mammoth companies. They've released their Magnum Premium Ice Cream, available at 7-11 and Ministop Branches. Magnum Ice Cream is Premium Ice that doesn't melt quick, and has exquisite flavors. Gab had his share of Magnum back in around 2003-2004 when he was in Australia.

Price: 60php

THE VERDICT

He Says: So they finally came out here in the Philippines. Magnum really packs a punch. It's relatively smaller that the ones that I've had in Aussie, but they pretty much taste the same. The Chocolate is really good and the Ice Cream makes it even better. Every bite is worth the price and I really try to make the best of it. Really good Ice Cream.

Rating = 10/10

She Says: I think it's a wee bit expensive. Shelling out 60php for these treats are a little heavy on the wallet. I think the chocolate truffle was the best. The chocolate coating is thicker than usual chocolate covered ice cream treat. Very easy to eat, not messy at all and i'd suggest that you leave it at room temperature a minute or two before you eat it.

The Creamery: Ice cream Cakes

There was storm in Manila, but that didn't stop Love and I from heading out. I think we went to the mall hoping to find a socket for our computers because we both had to do work. Mimi's brother went with us on this one. We went to Mall of Asia, thinking that there would electricity, but to our surprise, they too had no power. So we walked around, ate at A Veneto Pizzeria for lunch, and dropped by this isolated-from-the-rest place called the Creamery. 

The Creamery specializes in cold desserts such as Ice Creams and Milk Shakes. We were supposed to order some Ice Cream, but the Waitress said that their Ice Cream Cakes were on 50% off because they were melting quick. So, we decided to try it out. 



I had the Coffee.


Love had Tiramisu


Love and her dessert.


Dan got the Cookies and Cream

THE VERDICT

He Says: The Ice Cream Cakes weren't bad. They were big, creamy, and tasty. It was 50% off but even if it wasn't, the taste is worth the price. It's a pretty big slice of cake, but it's soft like Ice Cream. It's a little hard to eat if you don't let it melt a little, but that's not enough to ruin your experience.

She Says: I've had better but for the price they're definitely worth a try! I loved how the cake was presented on the plate. They looked absolutely scrumptious!
