“Ice cream is happiness condensed.”
Jessie Lane Adams
When you hear words like French vanilla, Belgian chocolate and roasted almond, you can virtually taste something seriously good, if not great!Belgiyum from Mother Dairy is all this and much more. It’s truly nice. With flavours that are pleasantly natural and beautifully balanced, the rich creamy French vanilla ice cream leaves you satiated. Just one bite, and you break into a smile. Smooth, crisp, creamy gently please the palette …
I could hardly say no when Mother Dairy asked me if I would like to review their new popular variant in the market, Belgiyum. You see, Mother Dairy has been a tradition at home for years. Talk about brand loyalty and there is no one more loyal to the brand than my father. He’s been like this for years. Well past 75 now, he walks at a sprightly pace to the familiar blue & white booth every other morning to buy milk {this after he’s had both knees replaced}. Milk is just an excuse. He then buys a variety of Mother Dairy ice cream pops, often a brick of butterscotch or vanilla. The fridge is the the kids first halt at their place, and often the last one too. So what if they now tower a head or two above him, they are always hungry for ice cream!
In his opinion, Mother Dairy ice creams also make the best gift, so he always brings us some. A new assortment each time, and always with a huge bag of seasonal fruit. Slave to his habits, I think he hasn’t discovered Belgiyum yet. Well guess who has, and I think it makes a great gift too. Traditions need to be followed, and this is a welcome one, especially in summer. At our place, ice cream is welcome round the year.
So when I took my first bite of Belgiyum, I was seriously going yummmmmm. For someone who often makes fruit based ice creams at home, this was a welcome break. A rather delicious one too. The play of textures is so noticeable. The crackle of the smooth Belgian chocolate coating pairs really well with roasted slivered almonds. Then the rich, creamy, luxurious French vanilla ice creams floods your mouth. Need I say more?
