Had to check out the hype @burpple made over @ChurnCreamery! Nope, wasn't disappointed - the ice cream is so smooth and creamy, with the soft taffy-like texture that proper gelato should have. I didn't really enjoy the Blue Pea and Sea Salt flavour (one scoop $4.50) cause it was way too milky and yet too salty at the same time. A strange balance I did not really enjoy. But I like the milder, lighter August mystery flavour. If you guess the flavours after a taste, you get the whole scoop free! (Pictured) Here's a hint: they both are flowers. Then I got it in the puffcone ($1.50): a flaky, crisp shell that was made to mimic the donut cone? I like it, the puffcone's buttered exterior gave it a smooth sheen and a flaky pastry taste before exposing the chocolate interior. Don't expect a crossiant-like pastry, the shell's too thin to give you the fluffiness. Thin, but sturdy, the cone holds in the melting ice cream with a layer of hot melted chocolate (done over the counter) that hardens as soon it gets in contact with the ice cream. Good thing they use good quality chocolate. In all a delightful gimmick that I enjoyed. But i'll probably order the ice cream in a regular cone in future!
