![]() ![]() During the walk, I popped into the wellness shop Apothecary 27. Once I had my ice cream, I took a stroll up to the public footpath where you can walk along the stream by the Weydown car park, and then round to the big M&S and park. The little stream walk in Haslemere (Image: Lauren Cole-Lomas) Other flavours that I’d love to try next include the all-natural unicorn, Lotus Biscoff (I am a bit addicted to Lotus biscuits, as you can tell), and the razingo sorbet. The cookies and cream seemed to be finely ground Oreos, but I couldn’t find any biscuit chunks. It was sweet and slightly malty, with big chunks of honeycomb scattered inside. My favourite flavour I tried was the honeycomb. ![]() The ice cream scoops were really generous, and the consistency was thick and creamy. On the wall was a big calendar, full of local community events. The atmosphere inside the shop was really homely, and the staff were very welcoming. I also laid eyes on a slice of Lotus Biscoff rocky road, which I had to take home with me. I went for a large waffle cone with two scoops, one of cookies and cream and another of honeycomb. When I visited, there was a lovely array of flavours to try, from fruity dairy-free sorbets to rich creamy chocolatey ice creams.įlavours included: blackcurrant, strawberry, honeycomb, chocolate, lemon meringue, vanilla, peach, chocolate sorbet, rhubarb crumble, jam and bread sandwich, raspberry sorbet and cookies and cream. I visited the shop for some delicious ice cream at lunchtime, and ate it while I took a look around the town. The ice cream shop first opened in 2014 after Ben spent years making his own ice cream at a local farm and selling it from a van he bought on eBay. Though it was indeed soft, its mushiness affected the overall experience greatly.All the ice cream flavours at Dylan's in Halsemere (Image: Lauren Cole-Lomas) But where it fell short was in the mouthfeel. ![]() Our chef rated the Nostalgia’s performance in this test as “Good.” The full flavor of the Birch Benders mix was extracted: we got a sweet, slightly salty taste profile in this waffle. ![]() Mouthfeel: Soft, but mushy in certain spots.They were small and had inconsistent distribution, resulting in a soft but spongy waffle. We found several air bubbles throughout the cake's core when cutting the waffle open. The overall texture was acceptable but certainly could have been better. Texture: Soft, but overly moist and mushy.Because the color was too light with the same tone as undercooked batter, we didn’t rate the waffle highly in this section. The crust had a very light gold tone, with the pockets being slightly darker. It was soft and pliant with a taste that-while not gourmet-was good enough for breakfasts and light snacks. Though the pale coloration of the waffle didn't look great, the texture and taste were decent. Hence, the waffle received a good score in this section. Although the burnt spots on the crust introduced a slight bitterness to the waffle’s flavor profile, it was still delicious. Our chef described it as having a rich, sweet taste. Flavor: Rich and sweet, slightly bitter.Large air bubbles and pockets could be seen throughout the waffle’s interior. The interior of the waffle was fully developed and aerated, resulting in a soft, fluffy core. Aeration level: High - air bubbles were plentiful and well-sized within the waffle.Though it had a slightly mottled appearance, we still considered the waffle’s coloration to be uniform. The outer crust was light brown, with most of the darker spots concentrated inside the wells. On the whole, the waffle had good coloration. And taste-wise, our chef rated it as flavorful but held back from giving it a higher score due to the bitterness from the burnt spots. The texture was soft and fluffy, thanks to a high aeration rate. They weren’t charred, but they still introduced a slight bitterness to the waffle. Within the wells were some dark brown burnt spots. The crust’s coloration was decent, with an appealing light brown color throughout. ![]()
