Today, Kevin and I are sampling some new frozen treats. We've got Carnegie's chocolate-covered cheesecake bites and Night and Gale's Sorry Birthday Cake ice cream sandwiches. These treats promise a refreshing change from our usual picks at The Fresh Market.
Carnegie Chocolate Covered Cheesecake Bites
Priced at $8.49, these bites boast a surprising twist—they can be enjoyed frozen, refrigerated for up to 5 days, or at room temperature for 4 hours. The chocolate shell adds a satisfying crunch, though the dark chocolate may be intense for some palates. The cheesecake center, while cold and firm, delivers a delightful tang that pairs well with the chocolate coating.
Night and Gale Sorry Birthday Cake Ice Cream Sandwiches
At $3.99 per sandwich or $6.99 per box of four, these sandwiches promise a festive experience with golden crusted brown sugar cookies enveloping vanilla ice cream swirled with rainbow sprinkles and yellow cake pieces. While the cookie offers a firm texture, the ice cream's flavor is subtle, lacking the pronounced birthday cake taste promised by the label. The absence of visible cake pieces is disappointing, but the overall texture and cookie's flavor compensate.
Chomp Size Orange Creamsicle
This $5.40 treat delivers a bold orange creamsicle experience with a brown sugar cookie exterior encasing orange creamsicle ice cream infused with orange zest. The cookie's sweetness complements the robust orange flavor, reminiscent of orange oil, more than fresh orange. The treat melts quickly, indicative of its creamy texture.
In conclusion, these gourmet treats offer a sophisticated twist on classic flavors. While they may be pricier than typical ice cream bars, their quality and unique flavors make them a worthwhile indulgence.
