Haagen-Dazs Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream

Häagen-Dazs. I always thought this meant something deep and meaningful in one or other of the Scandinavian languages, something professing the wonders of an ancient Nordic ice cream tradition. Today, whilst doing a little background reading for this review, I have found out that this belief is completely and utterly wrong. Häagen-Dazs is American. Häagen-Dazs is a nonsense word, meaning nothing at all, made up by some marketer who thought it sounded good. Häagen-Dazs was born in 1961, making it slightly older than Ben and Jerry’s, but hardly ancient or traditional. In fact, it has only been ... more

I first came across Haagen-Dazs Strawberry Cheesecake Flavour Ice Cream when one of my friends bought it round when we were having a DVD night and to be honest, nearly every time I settle down for the evening to watch a DVD, this ice cream comes out. About Haagen-Dazs Haagen-Dazs is unsurprisingly an American Brand and wasn't actually available to buy in the UK until 1987. Haagen-Dazs actually only started out with three flavours: vanilla, chocolate and coffee. With these flavours being so popular the brand quickly developed, with them producing a wider variety of flavours for the consumer to ... more

When I go to the cinema, I just HAVE to have ice cream. Ben and Jerry’s is my favourite, but Haagen Dazs comes a close second, which is just as well because two out of three of the cinemas I regularly visit have Haagen Dazs cafes! One of my favourite flavours is Strawberry Cheesecake. This is surprising really because I have never been a huge fan of strawberries themselves (not in the way that some people enthuse over them!), let alone strawberry flavour things, which I normally find too sweet, scented and sickly and have a taste all of their own which is nothing like strawberries! Haagen Dazs ... more

As I write this op, with my tub of Haagen-Dazs Strawberry cheesecake perched on the table, my cat is peering up at my treat eager to get the leftovers (what a horrible word). I am half way through some really strenuous “revision”, and my mum will do anything to keep me happy, and more to the point, keep me working. Yesterday I seized advantage of her vulnerability, and asked for a tub of Haagen-Dazs, to keep my energy levels up you see. It was a bit of a far fetched plan, as usually she refuses to spoil me, but much to my surprise she obliged. My instructions were to buy either Pralines and ... more

I’m finding it pretty hard to write music ops at the moment, just haven’t got the time to do them, but I am managing to work my way through old half started ops that just need little bits adding to them to finish them off. This of course in one such op on Strawberry Cheesecake flavoured Haagen Dazs. Now to be perfectly honest I am not usually one to buy expensive ice cream like your Carte D’or, Haagen Dazs or Ben & Jerry’s. I prefer your common Tesco type of ice cream, but recently after buying a pizza from Pap Johns I got a tub of ice cream free with it and as they only do Haagen Dazs I ... more
