Chocolate Shoppe Ultimate Oreo
Chocolate Shoppe Ultimate Oreo is labeled as "Scrumptious Oreo crumb-based ice cream with boat-loads of real Oreos.” Upon lifting the lid you do not see a lot of real oreo chunks, but a darkened sweet cream base. The best Cookies and Cream I have had in the past was Graeter's. If this can match the mix-ins and dense flavor Greater's I would be shocked. Nick from On Second Scoop raved high about this, so I had to place an order and pick this up.
The Scrumptious Oreo Crum-based ice cream is legit. The first bite reminded me right away of the sweet cream filling of an oreo. Take an oreo, dunk it in milk, and take a bite that is exactly what this ice cream tastes like. The darker looking base reminded me of someone smashing the chocolate oreo's and mixing them into the sweet scream base (hence the darker color). The darker color also is a major factor of the cocoa added into the ingredient makeup of the pint.
Onto the "Boat-loads" of real oreo's. That is an understatement. Just when I thought Graeters was known for their massive oreo pieces, Chocolate Shoppe wanted to raise the bar. They are everywhere and come in a variety of sizes. As I worked through the pint I had at least 4 halved oreo's. Other than that you get smaller chunks along the way on top of the delicious base. The amount of oreo mix-ins reminded me of Everything But The (from ben and jerry's) due to the amount that was present.
The mix-ins resemble real oreo cookies and are very soft inside the ice cream. The crunchy texture provided inside the scrumptious oreo base is truly remarkable. The base is dense, luscious in flavor and is hard to put down. The deeper you dig into the pint the larger the mix-ins get in amount and size. If you are an oreo fan this is a must buy. Cookies and Cream was taken to another level and Chocolate Shoppe raised the bar over Graeters.
