Ow Wow Cow Birthday Cake Sundae
Ow Wow Cow Birthday Cake Sundae is labeled as "Layers of homemade cake, our chocolate frosting, cake batter ice cream, more cake, more icing, topped with whipped cream and rainbow sprinkles." This sundae is a feature for the month of May at Ow Wow Cow. Every month the company does special sundaes and flavors they highlight on their menu. Given that there is only a few days of May left, and I was venturing around New Jersey I had to pick up this limited edition item.
The cake batter ice cream is solid. The flavoring of the base ice cream is rich, creamy, and has a lingering luscious flavor that brings out the cake batter aftertaste. A cake batter is an enhanced vanilla flavor with the yellow cake coming into the backend. In essence it tastes like a blend of smooth vanilla ice cream and buttercream frosting.What I love about this base is that’s not sickly sweet like some buttercream frosting is I tend to find a lot of buttercream frostings used on ice cream cakes to be so sweet in an artificial way. Not here.
The best part of this sundae is everything else that is mixed in with the base ice cream. The company puts layers of cake, chocolate frosting, whip cream, and rainbow sprinkles. Whip cream and rainbow sprinkles do not add a whole lot to the big picture. The whip cream is airy, light, and fluffy to improve the cake batter base. Sprinkles are just sprinkles they don't offer much besides a slight crunch as you make your way through the sundae. The chocolate frosting is elegant to give this a multitude chocolate cake batter element. The frosting flavoring is incredibly dense as you can tell it is home-made inside the shop with the sheer flavor it provides. The cake is the real star of the show. How this stays so moist and fresh layered throughout the pint is surreal. The birthday cake sandwiched between ice cream is a match made in heaven. While too much cake and ice cream can be too sweet Ow Wow Cow found a happy medium with this taste great and not be too overbearing for the average consumer.
Overall this was my first experience with Ow Wow Cow and it was stellar. The company provides great ice cream, tons of mix-ins, and a unique sundae for the month fo May that is a must get. There could be a slight improvement in the density of the ice cream, but besides that I was happy with what was offered.
