Cold Stone now open in Glorietta!

For the last 25 years, Cold Stone has been one of the pioneers in providing the best and freshest ice cream, gelato, cakes and smoothies. Philippines had its first taste of Cold Stone last 2005 in Rockwell. It formally opened its doors last 2013 at Serendra. Few years after, several stores opened in strategic locations such as Greenbelt, SM Mall of Asia and now in Glorietta! Super Premium Ice Cream made FRESH daily!

I was lucky enough to visit the newest store in Glorietta. The vicinity was well lighted. Perfect for Instagram-ready pictures! The staff was very courteous and fun to interview. Indeed, it’s one of the best Cold Stone branches so far.

The best part of being a food blogger is to try limitless combinations of ice cream at Cold Stone. Here’s my take on some of their most delicious flavors:

I love peanut butter as a spread but I like it more in an ice cream. I love how this flavor reminds me of Reese’s cup. I combined it with Sweet Cream which was more subtle in flavor yet perfectly complements the rich flavor of the Chocolate Peanut Butter. I added pecan nuts to add texture to my ice cream. One thing I noticed about Cold Stone ice cream is that it doesn’t melt easily. I’ll give this combo an ACE.

Luscious Langka and Ube Decadent are both part of the Ready-to-Love Collection which features refreshing Filipino flavors. This has to be my favorite combination. Both flavors can stand by itself but it is much better together. You can really taste the sweet flavor of langka as well as the creamy and rich taste of ube in every scoop. This reminds me of Halo-Halo as a dessert. I’ll give this an ACE.

Cherry Biscottino and Triple Strawberry on the other hand was a new combination that popped in my head. I love cherries and strawberries (totally obsessed with it) in desserts and it did not disappoint here. I’ll give it a HIT.

Cold Stone also offers refreshing and creamy milkshakes. I personally tried Strawberry and Chocolate. Both are good but I like Strawberry Milkshake more. Check the reason above. Chocolate Milkshake is a HIT while I give Strawberry Milkshake an ACE.

I also tried their Coffee House Crunch Ice Cream Cake. It gives you different textures and flavor at each bite. I also love the presentation. I’ll give it a HIT.

Apart from diverse selection of delectable flavors, they also have a wide variety of combinations to choose from. It’s all about endless imagination! I really enjoy all of their flavors to be honest. I can’t wait to go back and do other combinations!
