I want you to tell me your #1 ice cream.. not the flavor, more like the texture and ingredients. Which store uses the best ingredients with a wholesome taste?

Imm say Maggie Moos but I figured I havent tried them all!

I like gelato better. The local gelato stores around here are pretty good.

I like rich, thick, not too hard or cold, and with mostly a nice rich vanilla. I don't like my ice cream too "gaudy", haha. And no chocolate (although I love chocolate in other things, like cake).

Cheescake is a nice, rich flavor to me. Maybe with some strawberry and vanilla. Frozen yogurt is good that way, too.

Mercury in Aquarius.

I like chocolate and elderflower icecream.
Not too heavy nor light I think.

I've taken my kids to Maggie Moos a few times, but we think Sebastian Joe's in Minneapolis is the best.

You are an ice cream fanatic

Baskin Robins? Braums? Shakes at Sonic?

Diplopoda, have you ever been to Marble Slab Creameries or Coldstone? The kind where they mix in all your favorite ingredients on a hard surface? I love those places! I like the cheesecake ice cream with ingredients such as graham cracker crust crumbs and chocolate chunks, stuff like that. It's been so long since I went there, kinda forgot what all they have. Gotta go back!
You are making me crave ice cream lol! I just had a Molten Lava cake from Arbies!

You must be hungry.

What about Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt? Have you been to one of those? It's similar to Marble Slab only yogurt instead of ice cream.

And Orange Julius is ice cold and refreshing in the heat of summer!

I live in the ice cream/ sno-cone stand capitol of the world! Do you like those little snow cone stands?

Yes I really like the vanilla ones. Dreaming about those from meadow gold lolol. They're really good!

I've not tried the elderflower ones. I'm a bit obsessed with flower infused foods too.

I think TWG has some floral tea flavored ones. Has anyone tried their tea ice creams?

I think gum is one big part of those specialty store ice creams. It differentiates them from the store bought ones. But heavy cream is still heavy cream lol.

SSS I think I don't really like the cold stone creamery. I got some biscuit mixing but their ice cream wasn't to my taste. Plus that chocolate waffle cup was just awful to nibble on.

My fave is Cold Rock creamery. Baskin Robbins is great too. Don't like Ben and Jerry's lol weird cuz when they tub their ice cream it becomes no better than less specialty ones.

I made matcha ice cream once but I missed the fluff by 5 secs and I got butter lol!!!


Oh yeah Dairy Queen my fave also! But their blizzards aren't v nice lol. I like plain!

I think Venus will have to do with ice cream you like, not Mercury.

Anyway, Libra Mercury 3rd, Libra Venus 2nd.

Texture doesn't matter to me, just flavor.
But vanilla is my favorite.

No, not just Venus, Moon too.
I just said Venus has to do with it over Mercury.

Venus is what you find pleasurable.

Yep, plain ole vanilla.
I think I do like purer flavors more.
I liked strawberry shortcake ice cream very much, and cotton candy too though.

Oh, and my Moon is Gemini 11th.

Not a fan of having stuff in your ice cream, eh? I know what you mean. I like them sometimes, other times not so much. I had a Sonic Snickers Blast the other day and the Snickers bits inside started to annoy me after a few bites. I decided not to get another one. It's just not for me. I do like certain mix-ins and Rocky Road flavor ice cream. Sometimes, they ruin it for me.

You're right.
I dislike flavors like yam, plain choc and strawberry. Neapolitan would hate me. I think when Libra placements are spoilt for choice they go vanilla. Cuz u can taste the quality if their ice cream thru the plainest flavor. Dairy Queen gets top award for their vanilla.

Nooo never snickers I don't like caramel from outside sources. They had this crispy plain biscuits I think that added oomph to cake batter ice cream but it still wasn't nice :/ rocky road with marshmallows and peanuts... Hmm sounds familiar you like a rocky life kinda?

Yes, I agree, my Dad was a Libra and his favorite was vanilla.

I need things in my ice cream. I like texture..otherwise it's boring to me lol. I like nuts in my ice cream..or cake chunks, like cheesecake. Rum raisin, pistachio,Reese's peanutbuttercup, etc..Nom nom..

I don't like bananas or oatmeal in my ice cream though. because they make the ice cream slimy.

I tried lobster ice cream last year. I thought it was delicious!

I would try Ben and Jerry's bacon ice cream though. They should make that

I agree about Dairy Queen, which is funny because I dislike fast food. I would make my own too, if I had an ice cream maker. I think my mom is going to give me one that's in the barn at my grandma's house.

But yeah, I confess that I love Peanut Buster Parfaits!

And I forgot that I *love* pistachio ice cream. Now I'm craving pistachio ice cream.

Bring it!
I love ice cream!

Dairy Queen, Cold Stone, Orange Leaf.

I wish I could truthfully tell you the best that I've had but I can't honestly.
It was a small place in Omaha, Nebraska.

I like Snickers Ice Cream bars... most of it really. Load up my ice cream or leave it plain. I would rather put some things on it but not much of an issue.

There's a store bought kind, Blue Bunny, Bunny Tracks. It may not be in your area though. It's a smallish company I think.

Here a while back I got something from Culvers (not sure how widespread they are either). I had to toss it after a bit. I'm not one to usually say something is too rich but that was over the top. Blah!

It doesn't exist any more I'm pretty sure but a year or two ago there was a place in London that sold ice cream made from real human breast milk!! They screened the people, etc. but wow.... Kinda weird. It was like 14 British pounds if I remember for an average amount of it.

^^ Lol I remember when the breast milk ice cream came out on the news a few years ago. I would never ever try that willingly.

Diplo was it you who posted that squid ink Icecream in your other ice cream thread?
