hey hei, chocolate ice cream

Lately, I had my wisdom tooth extracted (cost me enough to get an iPad!) and was a semi-solid diet. For a couple of days, meals were of porridge, yogurt, oatmeal and, unavoidably, ice cream.

Speaking of ice cream, I had this incredibly delicious chocolate-flavoured one, called "hei" (黑), by Awfully Chocolate.  It is a super premium dark chocolate ice cream made with natural ingredients.

According to the website, it contains a blend of our Awfully Chocolate's own chocolate and Belgian dark chocolate (min. 70% cocoa solids), real eggs, fresh milk and pure cream. And because of the low air content in the ice cream, it's very rich and dense, and it has less sugar than most other premium ice creams.

True to its word, joy is in hei and it's better if you get a few more people to share the pint ($11.60, also comes in Single and Double scoop servings at $3.80 and $6.20 respectively) with you because, once you start, you may find it hard to stop. With low sugar content, you can easily smell the fragrance and enjoy the rich taste of the chocolate. This is unlike those which are so sweet you can hardly taste the chocolate. hei is definitely the best and most serious chocolate ice cream I've ever had, and the calories are well worth it.
