Smooth…

I hardly ever buy ice cream home to eat. Usually I would eat it once in a while for dessert at my favourite café in town…but Melissa is home for the one-week school break and the other day, we dropped by the supermarket in the neighbourhood to pick up some stuff and browsing through their freezers with all the different types and brands of ice cream, I decided to buy this (RM11.50)…

Magnum 1

…for a little bit of indulgence on our part while she’s home.

Like I said, I don’t usually buy these things and I thought it was a box of those minis that I would finish in just one bite. However, Melissa wanted one after dinner that day and when she opened the box, I realised that I had bought the normal big-sized ones…

…and there were only three inside. I guess that would be just perfect – one for me, one for Melissa and one for the mum.

It looked the same as any of the usual ones that I had had before…

…and they seem to be pretty proud of the fact that they use “Belgian chocolate” in the making…

Magnum 4

I, for one, would not be able to tell the difference. People told me once to buy the imported KitKat from Langkawi (which we can get here actually) as it would be a lot nicer, creamier…bla…bla…bla…  To me, they’re all the same – just the price is nicer…if you get what I mean. Hehehehehe!!!!

Anyway, I tried one myself…

Magnum 5

…and ooooooo….!!!! It was so so so nice!!! I don’t know about the chocolate – it was just chocolate to me but I found the vanilla ice cream inside so rich, so creamy, so smooth…and with the hint of strawberry, I absolutely loved it!

Of course, I finished it in no time at all…

…and if you ask me, I would say that this is a whole lot nicer than those branded imported ones and at less than RM4.00 each, it is definitely a whole lot cheaper. Other than the snob appeal, if one is into that kind of thing, why pay more and settle for less?

Oh dear! Oh dear! Now I would have to resist the temptation of going back there and getting some more… Sighhhhh!!!!
