Butterknife Folk (Funan)

CNY Special
.
Collaboration with Butterknife Folk
.
Nian Gao gelato with housemade nian gao and white sesame brittle
.
Partly inspired by the new food craze - Nian Gao (sweet rice cake made from glutinous rice)
.
Recently almost everywhere, we have seen cafes, patisseries and even restaurants selling Nian Gao-inspired items like Nian Gao waffles and Nian Gao croissants but rarely we see Nian Gao ice-cream flavour
.
So Butterknife Folk and I collaborated to create this Nian Gao ice-cream flavour for CNY
.
Huge thanks to Ms Ingrid Lim from Butterknife Folk for the collaboration 👏🏻👌🏻
.
Do come and try it as well as show some support

Butterknife Folk is known for their creative ice cream flavours and today, we decided to try one of their more special creations, the Butterscotch Miso flavour! Thankfully, the scoop of ice cream tastes a lot like the usual butterscotch ice cream, although it was slightly saltier and there were hints of the salty taste of miso soup. It was still pretty palatable and the pieces of chocolate chip studded into the scoop of ice cream added some sweetness to the dessert as well.

This is a premium flavour, so it costs 50 cents more and is priced at $6 with a cone! If you are not a fan of such original flavours, Butterknife Folk has more normal flavours such as pistachio and dark chocolate as well!

We went back to Butterknife Folk and we decided to order a more unique flavour - ondeh ondeh ice cream! Inspired by the kuehs made with pandan, gula melaka and coconut, this scoop of ice cream amalgamates the three ingredients into a sweet and cold treat. The scoop of ice cream is less heavy on the coconut, however, and the gula melaka taste was more pronounced! Really love it as it really reminds us of the actual ondeh ondeh. The scoop was also priced at $5.50 if you add on a cone.
