Ube Ice Cream AKA Dirty Ice Cream...Intrigued?



Ube Bilog from Mamasons

Hey guys, welcome to April's Pink Food 
I thought I would share this beauty with you that I came across on one of my random trips to London on a random Friday night (not that randomness is limited to Friday nights) for an adventure and because I love London.

This was the most enchanting visit to China Town I had ever had and made me fall in love with it. One lane in particular kept on drawing me in, to what felt like every establishment, but lets stay on track, this post is to give glory to the Ube ice cream milk bun I happened across.

With what must have been a few pounds in cash and a few pounds on my bank card, but more importantly a freedom pass that allowed me to travel throughout the whole of London for free like a queen.. I decided I wanted to visit South Kensington as I knew there was a Japanese patisserie namely Kova I liked there and thought I would have a wonder in South Kenny (as if I call it that! Ha). It turned out it had just closed, but that there was another Kova in China Town that was open, so I headed for there and that is where the magical purple milk bun-ness pictured above and I were destined to meet. 

I couldn't help but notice Mamasons, it was luring me in from the get go with its vibrant aura and its pretty electric sign reading Dirty Ice cream. I had to know what this dirty ice cream was and it was so packed full of people, I thought "there's something here which needs investigating" and there was. There was so much to choose from; but I was attracted to the flashes of purple I was seeing dotted around the parlour from what customer's had purchased. Again, it was clear I needed to try this purpleness and find out what the crack is with it. Very aware that this was a risk (not being dramatic at all ha) to spend my whole budget for that evening on such an alluring thing with no clue as to whether I would love it or hate it, irrelevant of how much everyone seemed to be loving it, if I didn't love it, I couldn't just go and buy something else - this was it, my only chance to choose that evening's sweet treat of satisfaction. I could of potentially bought a milky bar on the way home with my remaining pennies but I wanted to be excited by a new foodie experience.

And, that I was, I went for the Bilog, which is basically a hot ice cream sandwich - divine. The ice cream I went for was the 'purple one' as I knew it at that time. It is called Ube and pronounced ooh-bae, which is made with native Filipino purple yam and is Mamasons signature flavour. The ice cream is placed in a Pandesol, which is a milk bun and lightly toasted and dusted with icing sugar.

It was so wonderfully comforting in the most uniquely delicious way. Its been a while since I had it now, but I remember the ice cream tasting not overly sweet; more creamy and rich, nutty (but smooth), a note of vanilla you could say... (feeling posh as I say that) and the a new pleasantly lovely subtle new flavour for me. And oooh, the combination of the warm milk bun and ice cream was LUSH. 

Lots of love, April
