An Invitation

An Invitation

On Bank Holiday Monday Paddington Bear invited me to Snugburys to sample his marmalade ice cream. When I arrived, he doffed his hat to welcome me.

Paddington's Special Ice Cream

Thank you, Paddington. The ice cream was delicious.

    Lots of adults grow past loving childhood foods, except for icecream which remains blissful. I don’t know what yum yum is, or snugtella, but most of the other icecream names on the blackboard sound right up my alley. Tell Paddington you have a co-blogger in Australia who will be visiting next (northern) summer :)

    I wanna have this PB’s marmalade ice flavour on toast now!
    Is it weird to have it this way? ;)

    PADDINGTONNNN! I LOVE Paddington! How fun! How as the marmalade flavor, good?

    Looking at the flavors, though, I’d probably go for caramel pecan or death by chocolate.

    Elderberry and rhubarb? Well, that’s totally an adult flavor. I can’t imagine a child going, “One scoop of elderberry and rhubarb, please.” Also sounds very British, because although we have both here, I haven’t heard of the ice cream flavor. We have rhubarb pie, though, especially in the South. Can’t say I’m a fan!

      It wasn’t like marmalade, more like swirls of orange curd. It was delicious :-)

      Some of the flavours including the elderflower and rhubarb are not flavours you would normally find in Britain. I think this icecream farm experiments with flavours. It is a lot of fun :-)
