Try These Great Ice Cream Varieties

By Nicholas McMillan

I've always been a big fan of ice cream. For as long as I can remember, I've had a love for a nice cone of ice cream with a few sweet, dripping scoops. The toppings are just as enjoyable to me, and nothing beats a nice ice cream sundae or a banana split.

Besides the classics, there are also plenty of newer ice cream flavors that'd be pretty easy to miss if you weren't getting it as often as I do. While I love the classics and they'll never get old to me (chocolate is still my number one flavor when it comes down to it), there are some great newer flavors worth trying out.

I've had a number of different ice cream binges this year. It's been a stressful one, and ice cream definitely helps out with that. I've spent a lot of my time trying out new flavors because I've read good things about them. Here are a few that really stand out to me.

The brown sugar flavor by Haagen Dazs is a can't miss. If you like something sweet, this is a great flavor that truly tastes like the brown sugar you'd use baking cookies as a kid growing up.

Another can't miss flavor is fleur de caramel, also from Haagen Dazs. The name is fancy, but I'll break it down into more simple terms. It's like a salty caramel. Imagine a pretzel dipped in caramel.

I hope they come out with more sweet and salty blends. It's kind of like eating a chocolate covered pretzel, only that it's caramel instead of chocolate. Whatever it is, I want more of it.

Another amazing ice cream flavor is the sticky toffee pudding at Haagen Dazs. It's simply divine in my book and also tastes very much like real toffee.

The last one I'll mention before you run out and get ice cream now is Oreo Outrageous. Baskin Robbins makes this flavor, and it's truly one of my new favorites. Much better than cookies and cream in my book. - 31376
