Gelato Fiasco Sriracha Peanut Gelato

http://theicecreaminformant.freeforu...riracha-peanut

Gelato Fiasco asked Is it nutty, slaty or spicy? This pint completes all of these things in an interesting fashion. You get the nutty compliment from the salted peanuts. The spice factor is on the weak side, for those who enjoy a hint of sriracha or hot sauce. The base reminded me of Peanut Butter Straccitella without the chocolate pieces and replaced with salted peanuts. Smooth or Crunchy? This pint offers both. The Gelato Fiasco base is known to be extremely creamy and delicious packed with the crunchy salted peanuts. Was i crazy in love with this pint? I would say its very good, and not to mention extremely unique to see peanut butter and sriracha hot sauce combined in a gelato. If the heat factor was a bit higher, and the peanuts were denser in size I would consider it a home run.

Graeter's Cincinnati Pig Tracks

http://theicecreaminformant.freeforu...ati-pig-tracks

Cincinnati Pig Tracks I had very high hopes for, but I was slightly let down with the fudge inclusion on this Graeter's Pint. The lack of fudge resembled a small brown swirl from top to bottom. The base was something I knew would be epic from first bite to last. If you have not had Greater's Vanilla base it is a must try. The peanut butter cups combined with the vanilla base alone gave this pint a great score, but I can't say this is one of my top 3 flavors on the Graeters line. I would still prefer Buckeye Blitz, Cookies and Cream, or Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip as top flavors over this one.

7-Eleven GO! Yum Double Cookie Dough Ice Cream

http://theicecreaminformant.freeforu...ie-dough-cream

While this 7-eleven offering was not shy on the mix-ins (which I love) the base did not help this pint out. The weak base was a let down from the start, one of the weaker vanilla bean bases I have tried in my time. If they would of spent a bit more flavoring on their base to upgrade to something better like a Ben & Jerry, or a sugary vanilla base like Greater's offers this would be an easy A. The amount of mix-ins started to resemble that of 2nd street where it was loaded. The cookie dough pieces are not as large, but in a greater amount than most pints. From top to bottom this is loaded with chocolate, cookie dough, and a 2-3 pieces of brown sugar cookie dough. For cookie dough lovers this would be worth a scoop, for those who don't really care for cookie dough this is an easy pass.

Steve's Blackberry Crumble

http://theicecreaminformant.freeforu...kberry-crumble

Overall it is a good pint, but did not exceed expectations of Whoopie Pie or Cookie Butter which could be Steve's best offeringins. The Jam had a decent taste to it, but nothing over the top. I would relate the blackberry jam to a blackberry jelly with a very mild flavor. A few bites had a bit of an artificial blackberry taste to it which threw me off. The Cinnamon Oat strusel has a nice cake texture and cinnamon aftertaste, but I also got a bit of a buttery vibe to it. After eating this Pint I would say its good, but not one of Steve's best. I would much rather opt for Jeni's Brambleberry Crisp which has a stronger fruit flavor, and also a denser oat streusel.

Gelato Fiasco Maple Sap Tap Gelato

http://theicecreaminformant.freeforu...-maple-sap-tap

Maple Sap Tap was a good pint, but not a great Pint. If I could rescoop some of the previous pints I had in the past I would rank the PB, Almond Butter Chocolate Chunk, Sriracha Peanut, & S'mores a higher grade than this one. The Maple Base did not have enough flavor in it to get an A grade from myself, but the walnut toffee mix-ins really helped raise the overall score of the pint to a degree. With a loaded mix-in pint and a decent base I would probably consider re scooping other flavors off their line before this one. I would not even include this in my top 5 off the Gelato Fiasco Line.

7-Select Toasted S'mores Ice Cream

http://theicecreaminformant.freeforu...s-cream-review

Do not sleep on this pint, if you are ever near a 7-11 pick this up instantly. The Graham Cracker base provides a heavy graham cracker flavor and tons of mix-ins with an incredibly creamy base. If you like heavy and thick swirls of marshmallow and fudge with chocolate chips mixed into a perfect graham cracker base you need to look no further. If you like a stronger cinnamon base and less mix-ins Gelato Fiasco may be your cup of tea. If you are looking for a heavy marshmallow base with graham cracker swirls + Chocolate Chips then Wegmans will be your go to S'mores Ice Cream. These would be my top 3 S'mores Ice cream offerings.
