The sweetness and richness of the ice cream melts in your mouth, yet it has a clean aftertaste. There is no milkiness, and your mouth is filled with the aroma of rich vanilla beans. No matter how sweet and melty the ice cream is, the custard white chocolate and crispy wafers support it firmly.

It is no longer an "ice cream," but rather a "western pastry" like a custard cake or a tart. It has such a rich and satisfying taste.

By the way, I usually get tired of eating vanilla ice cream halfway through, but this one was so delicious that I could not get enough of it even after eating one, and finished two. The decisive factors were the good aroma and the fact that the sweetness does not linger even though it is rich. Not only vanilla lovers, but also those who do not usually choose vanilla ice cream may change their concept of vanilla ice cream. Give it a try!
