Day 25: Sandwiches... of Ice Cream?

Well guys and dolls, I'm 1/4 there! Today marks the 25th day I've been doing this... how weird is that? Anyway, I figured I'd post some delicious food to make you all wish you were here to eat said delicious food. This is an ice cream sandwich. We've come a long way since the old traditional ones of thin chocolate cookie-like bread and some vanilla ice cream shoved in between. Rather, this ice cream sandwich is made with two slices of cake, this one a coconut pound cake, with a vanilla, almond, and maple ice cream mixture inside, with some maple syrup and coconut sprinkled over to make it look quite delightful. Now I have to be honest: I've never had an ice cream dessert that beats this one. This has to be the most delicious ice cream dessert I've had, and worth every penny (8,500 won, which is between 7 to 8 bucks in America). Weeks ago I posted a picture of a guard post and talked about this ice cream sandwich place, well this is it, complete with a picture now. I remember when I first found this place, I thought it would simply be like Carvel Flying Saucers, but no... this is what I have now deemed the REAL ice cream sandwich; everything else is simply a poor imitation of this godly beast of a dessert. Talk about needing to SHOCK every day and every night.

  1. What was yours called again? I had the Sweet Smile if memory serves on the castella with the coffee icecream with oreos crushed in it and maple syrup on top. Also you might wanna spell dessert with 2 s's
