I spotted a few new ice creams in Iceland yesterday and of course I couldn't leave this new Coconut & Choc Sauce Ice Cream behind. Apparently it's a flavor they've done before but it's not one I've ever tried. There doesn't actually seem be much choice for coconut fans in the ice cream aisles. If you know of any decent ones then please do let me know in the comments below.
At only £1.50 for a 900ml tub, this Coconut & Choc Sauce ice cream is great value, but does it actually taste any good? The answer is a resounding yes! The ice cream itself is surprisingly good and of a decent quality for a supermarket brand. It's creamy without being too milky tasting. I was expecting the coconut flavor to be very artificial and overly sweet, but that was not the case at all. There is lots of dessicated coconut within the ice cream that gives it added texture, and quite a strong but fresh tasting coconut flavor. The only slight negative point was that I couldn't taste much from the chocolate sauce, it would be good to have more chocolate coming through, but I'm not going to complain too much about this ice cream having a dominant coconut flavor.
I also spotted these Blueberry Crunch Cones in Iceland, such an interesting flavor for an ice cream cone! Let me know in the comments if you've tried these.
They also had Caramac and Toffee Crisp Ice Cream Bars labelled as new. These have definitely been around before but they don't seem to be available at other supermarkets at the moment (at least online).
