Jumat, 12 November 2021
Edit
Happy 2012. The long quiet was a good deserved intermission from blogging. Blame it on work, a lot of partying, full general laziness to fifty-fifty start the Mac every nighttime or maybe but the rain....or the lack of it?
Am dorsum amongst the commencement post service for the twelvemonth (pats her ain dorsum amongst a smug smile) amongst novel fangled popsicles crafted from gelato too sorbet. Just yell back of it equally upgrading the "ais krim potong" nosotros all grew upward with. These modern sticks are said to last made from all natural ingredients that gives it a creamier seize amongst teeth that beats those commercial sticks filled amongst palm crude or non dairy elements hands down.
As usual, our metropolis is e'er a follower versus a tendency setter too these gelato popsicles commencement made waves inward New York since 2010. Last year, Singapore joined the popular (pun intended) trouble upward too. Unlike those generic over the counter H2O ice cream popsicles, these lickable portable babies pack to a greater extent than intense flavor equally you lot slow relish each seize amongst teeth of the popsicle.
Here is my initial expect at what Kuala Lumpur too Petaling Jaya is offering. With this sweltering oestrus or what nosotros know equally the "Chinese New Year" weather, who knows.....this craze may but spread all over to Malaysia faster than Chatime's expansion....
G Stick, Ben's General Store, Publika, Solaris Dutamas
Housed inside BIG, that glorious supermarket packed amongst goodies everyone wants to larn their hands on, G Stick claims to serve gelato sticks made from homemade all natural H2O ice creams too sorbets. Each stick is priced at RM8.90. They send fruit based flavours such equally mango, raspberry or fifty-fifty those mixed amongst yoghurt to give it a creamier aftertaste amongst less calories. There are some classic gelato flavours similar pistachio, chocolate hazelnut too odd festive ones similar chestnut too Christmas pudding. Even the Japanese dark sesame is available here.
In addition, you lot tin also select gelato sticks dipped amongst diverse "additions". These gain from a sinful dark chocolate coating, chopped pistachio nuts too fifty-fifty marshmallows for the rocky route version. Rather than the park candy bar look, they fifty-fifty create enticing optic shapes.
I sampled the pistachio decadently one-half covered amongst dark chocolate amongst a sprinkle of pistachio nuts. It has a dense creamy texture amongst a rigid natural pistachio flavour. Since it was eaten inward an air conditioned area, the gelato stick didn't melt equally fast. It exclusively ended a quick demise because I miscalculated how much weight on ane side the chocolate coated ane would receive got equally I ate through the gelato side.
The downside I reckon would last that the sticks don't deed that fast out of the shop too thus freshness could mayhap last slightly compromised. After ane calendar week of observing the place, I all the same come across the same trouble of flavours. Nevertheless, a large thumbs upward for the G sticks equally I actually experience I'm eating creamy gelato equally I larn out it to melt a bit. If I wasn't watching what I ate inward anticipation of the Chinese New Year's Day feasting, I'll catch a popsicle everytime I see BIG.
Gelato Di Bruno, Candylicious, Suria KLCC
Gelato Di Bruno is housed inside every dentist's nightmare aka Candylicious. The identify serves a few varieties of gelatos - a diversity of dissimilar flavours inward the traditional fashion too also inward the stick form. There's a few offerings - the cutesy gelato stick for RM9, the cookie lollipop for RM12 too the sorbet lolly (price is around RM9 if I am non mistaken).
The gelato stick looked to a greater extent than similar a cake popular on a modest popsicle stick since it was but a teeny weeny scoop of gelato coated amongst pink, white too dark chocolate too sprinked amongst chocolate sprinkles or fifty-fifty stars. There's dissimilar flavours such equally tiramisu, chocolate too vanilla. While the gelato is overnice too creamy, I didn't similar its gustation since the chocolate has a rather faux too sugariness flavour. The cookie lollipop looked similar a bigger version of the gelato stick.
Not determined on but leaving afterwards sampling the teeny weeny gelato stick, I sampled the sorbet lolly. They had flavours such equally mango too raspberry. Luckily I gave it a endeavour equally it was excellent. Packed amongst lots of fruity flavours, the popsicle was really refreshing too extremely moreish. I tin envision me polishing a few sticks particularly since its a fruit based lolly, it must last healthier right?
Stickhouse, Sunway Pyramid, Petaling Jaya
In terms of perfect placing, ane must acknowledge that Stickhouse has it downwards pat down....right inward front end of the H2O ice skating rink at LG2, Sunway Pyramid. There's no destination of flow of kids clamouring for a gelato stick here. Moreover, that smooth bridge of H2O ice amongst the skaters twirling around e'er seem to start the cravings for something cold.
This Phillipines based franchise has a mammoth diversity of flavours that they intermission downwards to classic (RM6.90) too premium (RM8.90) flavours.

You also receive got the alternative to dip your popsicle inward chocolate (a selection of white, dark or milk that varies depending on availability) for an extra RM1. Chopped nuts such equally hazelnuts, almonds too pistachios tin also last added for some other extra RM1.
I managed to gustation the rich hazelnut or Giandula dipped inward dark chocolate amongst a hazelnut topping. The gustation is definitely inward a higher identify par from the commercial ones. However inward comparing amongst the G Stick, I felt the gustation wasn't equally creamy or intense. Stickhouse claims inward their brochures that everything is made from 100% natural ingredients. These include a vegetable fibre called inulina that helps growth the absorption of calcium, aids digestion too reduces cholestrol, sodium caseinate that is a poly peptide from milk. Egg white is also added to aid to blend air inward the mixture piece carob edible bean flour is used equally a natural stabilizer to foreclose the H2O ice cream from melting also fast. The popsicles also comprise fructose, that is depression glycemic.
The stall also runs special promotions similar their Dip n' Top Fri (which is today, yay!) where you lot response a trivia query to qualify for a gratis chocolate dip too topping. Their minute outlet is at Ara Damansara's Citta Mall, Lot G-K07. Next ane currently inward the pipeline is located at Publika, Solaris Dutamas.
