I was both very exciting about trying these and disappointed. Swedish Glace, as far as I'm concerned at this moment, probably make the best vegan ice cream (at least the raspberry tub anyway). And last time I was ordering these were out of stock so I bought the
Peak cones instead. Finally I got hold of a box today! And you get 5 in the box. BUT... they are tiny lollies and that makes me sad. Going purely on taste these are great. The ice cream inside isn't like the tub variety, it's smooth without any sauce (which is a bit of a shame) but its very tasty and creamy still and this one is strawberry too. And then it's covered in a thin layer of chocolate like a posh choc-ice with some fruity little pieces on the outside (just like hundreds and thousands but a bit nicer). Together it's great, a really tasty sweet lolly that nobody would suspect is vegan. But it's not enough - it's like one scoop worth and it needs to be at least 2! As you can see below it makes my hand look some giants hand. 4/5
I bought these too the other day! And likewise, I was very disappointed at the size of them, especially as I paid nearly £4 for them! I did really enjoy them though, as did my non-vegan boyfriend and mum :)
ReplyDeleteYeah its strange, I'm sure Swedish Glace tubs are 750ml which is bigger than most of their competitors. I have a feeling these are just aimed at kids though - http://www.swedishglace.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Swedish-Glace-Lolly-Ad.jpg
