I agree with you Dubba, the chocolate topping is so delicious. However, I almost thought the cake layer was too mild. I would've loved to see the chocolate layer on top and bottom of the pint! I enjoyed the cake slices and smoothness of the cream. I never tried the original, but this one was worth the purchase for sure!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-41462288967491258042023-06-12T22:46:52.853-04:002023-06-12T22:46:52.853-04:00I really like Boston Cream Pie, but this one taste...I really like Boston Cream Pie, but this one tasted nothing like it. If you like your ice cream over the top sweet, and sugary fudge rather than chocolate, you might be able to eat it. A sugar bomb.

Though you can't distinguish the pastry swirls from the base, it's such a delicious vanilla cake batter or custard flavor. The cake pieces solidify the cake element, and just the right amount of chocolate to not overpower but compliment the other components. Really good stuff.

I definitely wouldn't mind the base being more flavorful - I said that indirectly in the review, but now I am saying it directly :)<br /><br />@Chris: NYC should not be last! :)Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-33551299330900734422023-02-23T11:33:53.506-05:002023-02-23T11:33:53.506-05:00I tried to get the original when it was out but by...I tried to get the original when it was out but by then it had just been discontinued. So I'm really looking forward to this new interpretation. Sadly NYC gets all the new stuff last so I'll be waiting a bit. Glad to hear it's even better than the og tho.

I thought they nailed the cake flavor and the custard flavor swirls were awesome. However, the chocolate was terribly lacking, as you mentioned. The fudge flakes they added made no sense at all for a Boston Cream Pie ice cream...it would have been so much better with a chocolate frosting swirl in addition to the custard/cream swirl.<br /><br />This version absolutely nails the chocolate factor and the Topped format is great for Boston Cream Pie. However, I found the yellow cake flavor lacking; there were plenty of the cake pieces in my pint but they just didn't stand up for me to the base or the chocolate. <br /><br />If I had my way, I would keep the base ice cream used in the older version with the custard swirls and then add the topped ganache chocolate to it. IMO, that would be the best of both worlds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
