Rich and creamy buttery
toffee. Crunchy, super sugary caramel. And that's about
it. Ben and Jerry's Creme Brulee
is a tasty treat but way overboard on the sugar
and a bit boring as well.
Taste after taste the picture
becomes crystal clear: this flavor reminds me of those little
wrapped butterscotches you eat by the handfuls when visiting your
grand mother. Admittedly, those are pretty darn good, as is the
first taste of Creme Brulee, but both get old pretty darn quick.
Still, it is obvious a lot of thought went into Creme Brulee as
it tastes like top notch homemade ice cream even if the plainess
doesn't quite cover the four dollar per pint cost.
Overall, Creme
Brulee is a decadent though fairly average ice
cream flavor that seems more like Haagen-dazs than Ben
and Jerry's. If that's your thing than give this old sport
a try. Otherwise, stick with your old standbys as Creme
Brulee is definitely second team at best.
