I have been shopping this morning….

the manufacturers have test and tasting panels of consumers and follow where they lead.

I have loved pistachio flavour for decades and I am delighted to be able to find more of it about.

I love pistachio also. Does anyone remember when Neapolitan ice cream was red, white and green. The green ( pistachio) now replaced by chocolate?
And talking of chocolate, Dubai chocolate seems to be everywhere.

I have always loved anything pistachio-related too, so I'm loving the current trend for it as well.

I havent noticed that one.
Nor Dubai chocolate.

But have liked pulled pork and salted caramel everything.
So think the taste panels know a thing or two!

Salted licorice has not taken off here yet. I love it and is big in Germany/Austria and Scandanavia I believe.
I know it sounds weird but then I suppose salted caramel sounded weird to start with.

Pistachio is nice but I find the flavour too subtle. Have seen Dubai chocolate but never bought it, is rather pricey imho.

JamesandJon33. I remember the ‘neopolitan’ green, pink and white and much preferred it to the chocolate.

We bought some salted liquorice in Norway. Even DH a lover of liquorice thought it vile.

I bought the pistachio and vanilla Vienetta. It was on offer with club card.

It'll make a nice change from salted caramel!

Its the dubai chocolate influence

Patsy70 The Italian flag is red ,white and green…. Thus the original colour and flavour of Neapolitan icecream. Why pistachio was removed and chocolate substituted was probably due to cost.

We went out for lunch yesterday and I had a Dubai chocolate ice-cream

Meant to say and it was very nice!

I remember the first time someone at work brought in a box of salted caramel dark chocolates and how exotic it was. Now one of my favourites. Not sure about the licorice though but I’d give it a try.

Thanks Beechnut- i will look for that.😋

as a vegan I am glad there is more choice now. OH said that he has seen loads in the supermarket by us and yesterday there was some really good vegan Christmas fare in an email. I do have to watch the pennies but at the festive season I like to have something special for a treat; so far Tesco is looking favourable

What about hot honey???? I even saw hot honey Jaffa Cakes!
Not for me as I hate spices.

I tried those a few weeks ago.

I’ve also seen a something done with hot honey on a local restaurant menu.

Hot honey is everywhere at the moment!

Fine, if the real mac coy is added but I fear more E numbers and chemicals will be used to make the product more commercially viable. (Sorry I suffer from hidden allergies.)
