Black Treacle & Parkin

2016 11 02 18 14 25

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.

Malted Coconut Milk, vegan

2016 11 02 14 21 20

You really don’t miss the dairy in malted coconut milk. So popular with vegans and non-vegans alike, it’s a keeper! Available all year round. (Where did the parlour find that coconut though?)

Apple, Mint & Wheatgrass

2016 10 13 13 18 50

Wheatgrass powder adds an earthy herbal bass note to sweet apple and fresh mint. Really great as a shake too, get one whizzed up at our Afflecks Parlour.

Baked Apple Sorbet

2016 09 30 13 15 34

Hint of spice, and loaded with apples. A sorbet to warm your cockles. Good with a hot pud, or even blue cheese and crackers.

Pear & Tonka Bean

2016 09 02 09 54 01

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

2016 08 16 16 28 52

Available in sorbet form now too! I’ve got a problem with this, my most popular flavour by far, and that is… I can’t control my own personal peanut butter habit. With an industrial size tub in the cupboard, nothing passes my lips without a dunk in the Skippy. The “don’t get high on your own [...]

Chai Spices

2015 11 05 19 45 49

Clove, cassis, fennel, ginger, black pepper, cardamom. Comforting and familiar as much as it is exotic. I’m using Manchester’s Hungry Gecko recipe for chai. Thank you Jackie, a perfect blend of spices for this luxurious scoop. (particularly awesome as an affogato in our Affleck’s parlour)

Heart & Graft Coffee

2015 11 05 19 33 53

Another Manchester gem, Heart & Graft import coffee beans and roast them to their magical formula to produce a smooth incredibly tasty coffee which you can enjoy in Ginger’s too. If we’re temporarily out of the ice cream, go for a scoop of vanilla in a double Heart & Graft espresso!

Thomas Dakin Gin & Plum Sorbet

2015 11 05 19 17 00

A Manchester gin. A truly delicious gin. A gin unlike all others. How? They make it in small batches with the best ingredients, as we do our ice cream. It’s the only way to get that wow factor into the taste. Really vibrant gin. Get a bottle for Christmas, it’s stocked in Booths. Extraordinary with [...]

Blackberry, Rosemary and Sage Sorbet

2015 05 10 18 40 31

You wouldn’t think… I know… but it does… so just…. believe and eat!

Ndali Vanilla.

2014 10 01 15 30 52

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

2014 10 01 15 10 15

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).
