Tee Foodie: ice cream

Cookie Nation @ Kota Damansara

cafe 11:30

Have you ever try ice cream sandwich before? If you haven't, do you wanna try it? A cafe that sells ice cream sandwich finally opened in Sunway Nexis on last year December! If you love cookies, this is the perfect place for you. You can have cookies anytime you want now without baking cookies yourself.

My friend and I reached this cafe in the evening and we were greeted by one of the staffs. All the staffs were really friendly and always smiling to customers.

We chose the seat near the window because we need natural lighting for photos purpose. I liked the environment of this cafe and the turquoise coloured furniture. It is a great place to chill here with friends or even family members.

Feel free to come to do your work here while enjoying some cookies. They even have a mini playground for kids to play! It is really thoughtful of them to have a space for kids.

There are four types of cookies (Classic, Classic Deluxe, Volcano and Volcano Deluxe) and consist of 14 flavors of cookies for you to choose from. I felt that the flavors are really innovative and creative. All the cookies are make in perfect size and good for one serving.

If you are buying cookies only, the staff will help you heat it up so you can eat it like just came out from oven.

There are 8 types of ice cream, 6 types of toppings and 3 types of sauces. Cookie Nation is all about big attitudes and bold flavours. Go bold or go home!

You just need to add RM5 to make it an ice cream sandwich included one free topping! If you wanna add toppings or sauce on your ice cream, you just have to pay RM1. I felt that their price is reasonable for a cafe. You can also order set meal, brownies and lava cake. They also serve milkshakes and frappe too.

Cappuccino/ Latte (RM7) - I did not really like their coffee as they are too acidic. Cookie nation focus more on their cookies and ice cream. I understood that they do not take much attention on their coffee. I should try their milkshakes next time!

Single scoop (RM6)/ Double scoop (RM11) - Top row from left to right (Choc-O-Mint, Chocolate Sin, Very vanilla ice cream), bottom row from left to right (Punchy Passionfruit, Buzzing Honeycomb, Tangy Boysemberry ice cream). I did not try Cookie Dreams and Creamy Strawberry ice cream. My favourite flavors are boysemberry and passionfruit ice cream! I am not a fan of mint so I did not like the mint ice cream but mint lovers will sure like it.

There are four types of cookies: Classic (RM2), Classic Deluxe (RM2.50), Volcano (RM3), Volcano Deluxe (RM3.50). My friend and I were given the opportunity to try all the flavors! We were in heaven! My favourite cookies are Crimson Love (Red velvet cookie with chocolate chips and cream cheese filling), Mount Choco-La-Tay (Dark chocolate chip cookie with dark chocolate filling) and MacLovinIt (Macadamia nuts with white chocolate chips). My favourite type of cookies is Volcano Deluxe. All of their cookies are soft, chewy and fresh and that't how I like my cookies be. The cookies are delicious and I can't stop eating the cookies!

The Cranberries cookie and Mount Choco-La-Tay cookies with a scoop of Tangy Boysenberry ice cream topped with chocolate chips (RM10.50)
- I love ice cream sandwich from now on! The texture of the cookies paired really well with a scoop of ice cream. If you have a sweet tooth like me, I am sure you will enjoy this dessert and make you satisfied. This is my first time trying Boysemberry flavoured ice cream as I did not see this flavours at any ice cream shop before. It was a really unique flavor and I liked the fruitiness and slightly sourness from the boysemberry.

I love desserts very much so I don't mind coming here again with my friends and have some cookies! They are going to open a kiosk in Pavilion KL on July! People that stay at KL do not need to come to Kota Damansara to enjoy these delicious cookies anymore!

P.s This is based on my own preferences and my humble opinions. It may be different compare to other people.

Softsrve Mini @ Pavilion Elite

dessert 17:33

Softsrve had opened their fourth outlet in Pavilion! I am always a fan of softsrve and I love their ice cream especially their oolong tea flavour. I wish I have a Softsrve ice cream machine in my house. My friend got invited to the grand launch party and she invited me to go with her. Both of us reached Softsrve Mini at around 1:45pm and I saw people started to eat ice cream already. This Softsrve shop allows customers to customise your own ice creams.

When we reached there, we registered ourselves and we were given name tags to paste on our shirts. This tag enabled us to get free ice cream for unlimited time. We also received a cute mini notebook and there were two vouchers inside.

We went to queue up for ice cream and took pictures of the ice cream until it melted (as usual). Then, The launch event started at 2pm sharp. The Softsrve team did media announcement. They have four outlets less than two years and they planed to open more in the future. They also will create more new flavours and customers and request them.

The venue was decorated with black and white balloons. This event is only for invited guests only. My friend and I saw many famous instagrammers such as May Ho, Alex Yap, Casey, Mia Chai, Christinna Kuan, Jessica Chaw and more. The founders and co-founders of Softsrve were at there too. They pulled the party poppers to celebrate their launch.

There were live performances too! Two of them are so talented. Their voice are really nice!

They have four brand new flavors such as Grape yogurt, Rose lychee, Cream soda and Melon milk! There are 18 toppings including sauces for you to choose from. That's a lot! Furthermore, there are four flavors of waffle cone.

The four new flavours can be only found in Pavilion outlet for now. The price range is from RM9 onward. You can add up to three toppings and even quadruple flavour twist. Each topping or sauce costs RM1.50.

Twist of Grape Yogurt and Melon MiIlk soft serve with toasted vanilla marshmallow and chocolate coated honeycomb (Left) (Rm12) and twist of Rose Lychee and Cream Soda soft serve with caramelised sunflower seeds and fresh strawberry (Right) (RM12)

For second round, we took chocolate truffles, almond thin and caramelised breakfast cereal for our toppings. We also chose chocolate and vanilla charcoal cones instead of cups. Both ice cream cones cost Rm12 too. Both of us have the name tags so we did not need to pay for the ice creams.

I really loved the colours of the ice cream. They were too pretty! Their soft serve was smooth and did not melt very very fast. I liked the Grape Yogurt and Rose Lychee flavours. Cream Soda and Melon Milk flavours were not my cup of tea. Chocolate truffles tasted really good too! I recommend you to take that for your topping. Their cones were delicious and crunchy. You can really taste the chocolate and charcoal.
