5 Creative Takes on Ice Cream You Need to Try This Summer

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at UDelhi chapter.

Nothing spells pure unadulterated love the way ice cream does. This rich creamy frozen dessert is the favourite go-to for every mood, season, day, time….well, you get the point. Basically, if I could declare a National Dessert, it would be ice cream.

This summer, Spoon UDelhi brings to you the ultimate list of some creative ice creams you absolutely need to gorge on.

So what are you waiting for? Slurp away!

1. Nitrogen Ice Cream

Liquid nitrogen is a relatively new concept of making ice cream as it is more creamy and the main goal is to remove ice crystals. Since it is instant so there are no added preservatives. Trust me, this ice cream is a must have experience for every Delhi foodie. God bless science!

Where: Azote, SDA Market; Cherry Comet DLF Cybercity; Niice Ice Cream, Hauz Khas

2. Fried Ice Cream

With 100% natural flavours and a plethora of varieties like tender coconut, watermelon, figs, milk chocolate chip, caramel and more, Natural has successfully created a niche for itself among the health conscious. Try it for its authenticity and variety. You wouldn’t regret for sure.

4. Hokey Pokey

All Hokey Pokey outlets have a live kitchen, where customers can order an ice cream creation and get it made in front of their eyes. With so many awesome combinations, you’re spoilt for choice.

I highly recommend Belgian Dark Chocolate and Green Apple Mint. Just the thought of it is enough to make me salivate.

5. Giani’s

No ice cream listicle is complete without the mention of Giani’s. And for good reason, ladies and gentlemen! One of the most trusted names in ice creams, it never fails to disappoint. It’s Belgian Chocolate Nutty-Buddy Cone and Brownie Sundae are to die for.

Else, you always have this.

So it’s one of those days when you forget your assignment at home, get late for your lecture yet again and seriously, what’s with the darned sun? If only winter really was coming.

Anyways, worry not, for the classic Rs.10 chocobar in shining armour is just minutes away with that local ice-cream vendor. Just what you need to put a smile to that face (yes, Dark Knight fans, this is a Joker reference).
