Häagen-Dazs tasting event 2012

Thanks to MjQueenie7e and IVYCWK for bringing me along to the Haagan Dazs tasting event to try the new ice-cream series.

Further more thanks to the organizers for organizing a spectacular session for bloggers and the media to try their new products and the lovely heart shaped spoons and ice-cream coupons given to us which I forgot to submit earlier.

Before the tasting session began, there was a magician to warm everyone up and magically make the desserts appear before our eyes!!
In the new dreamy series there are three desserts that will be available from October and the Blooming heart a few days later.
The three desserts are: Belgian Blossum, Blossoming surprise and Blooming heart.

Belgian blossom 火焰奇遇 $328:
The Belgian blossom is dine in only, it is a mystical chocolate ball which has burning alcohol poured on top of it.
After the top of the chocolate ball has melted, the surprise is inside the ball.
Inside the chocolate ball are nine scoops of HD icecream with crunchy chocolate and pieces of chocolate cake.
It was really fun eating it, the chocolate is made of 72% pure Belgian chocolate which has a lovely bitter taste enhanced and infused by the burning alcohol when the chocolate melted and solidified on the cold icecream.
The ice-cream which is also a star of the desssert was delicious especially the green tea flavour.

Blossoming surprise 彩動心弦 $97:
This is available for take out which only costs $72 with four scoops of icecream whereas the dine in version has six scoops.
It was really colourful especially with the fruit.
The top part of the ball is hand crafted and very intricate.

Blooming heart 魔幻奇程 $489:
Similar to the Blossoming surprise this was also visually stunning, I love the marshmallows and redcurrants!
Underneath the pretty berries and marshmallows is an icecream cake.

Aftering trying the new desserts the HD experts also talked about pairing different icecream flavours together and the interesting tastes that you can get such as green tea and lemon sorbet giving a similar flavour to Lemon Tea.

That day I tried the peach because I havent tried it before, there were pieces of peach in it but the flavour was not that strong and I would have liked it to be more refreshing.
