Black Treacle & Parkin
Really gooey house-made parkin cake is crumbled into black treacle ice cream to make this seasonal treat. A real rib-sticker for Autumn. We’re calling this collection AW/16 like they do in that there Vogue.

Pear & Tonka Bean
What’s a tonka bean? The seed from a flowering plant native to Central and South America. A very complex aroma, hard to describe the taste, but there’s strong vanilla base notes, spicy and fruity. It has been used widely for many years in products ranging from tobacco pipes to fabric softener, and even as a [...]

Chorlton Crack, a.k.a Salted Caramel & Peanut Butter

Ndali Vanilla.
Awww. Look at him just sat there. Sweet. Am I really anthropomorphising a scoop of ice cream? Oh, what can I say… it’s vanilla! Delicious – made with Ugandan Ndali vanilla, and not over-sweet. My kind of vanilla.

Golden Syrup, Tate And Lyle
Velvety smooth, slightly bitter-sweet caramelised sugar. Not an over statement to say this is life affirming stuff. It’s my absolutely favourite on the menu (after the Pure Origin chocolate, and tied with Spiced Rum Bun).
