Score: 4.5 out of 5 scoops
Company: Front Porch
I admit I was skeptical at first. New ice creams always make me a little nervous. I guess I've been burnt too many times, though I'm always willing to try something new.
Since I decided to test out one of the Front Porch flavors, I thought I'd start with one I thought had an interesting name, "Chocolate Rocker."
Wow.
Just ... wow!
You chocolate fans, you have to try this ice cream. It might be my new favorite chocolate-centric ice cream.
First you've got a chocolate ice cream base, and what a base it is! The chocolate ice cream part of this treat alone would be worth the price. But then you also get a fantastic swirl of creamy fudge that leaves your mouth watering. But wait, there's more! Mixed in with all this goodness are pieces of chocolate truffles that go crunch in your mouth.
I'm a person who likes textured foods, not just taste, so I was thrilled to discover this ice cream with its smooth fudge swirl and its truffles. Those truffles are like rich little brownie bites that are sort of spongy soft but also pack a bit of a crunch to them. It was a near perfect mixture of quality goodness for me.
This ice cream alone has sold me on Front Porch ice creams. I've yet to taste any of their other flavors, but even if I don't like any of them, I will always have Chocolate Rocker.
And what a name! It will definitely rock your taste buds!
