Walls Viennetta.. a big let down!

Advantages: Very good chocolate, interesting texture
Disadvantages: Ice cream bland and tasteless

Review of Walls Viennetta Ice cream Walls have been producing ice cream for over 80 years, Viennetta, the subject of this review, is one of their ice cream desserts. ==The product== Walls Viennetta is an oblong bar shaped dessert made from Vanilla ice cream interleaved with chocolate flavoured layers. Viennetta was introduced to the UK in the early 1980's following the Unilever company's patented technology that allowed thin layers of wavy chocolate ...
...result was Viennetta. The product is found in the freezer sections of most supermarkets and is marketed as an 'ice cream treat for those everyday celebrations'. Viennetta comes in vanilla or mint flavours. This review covers the vanilla version. We purchased this ice cream on impulse in Asda as it was on a special offer. I had eaten Viennetta in the past, but had not bought it for some time. ==Packaging, taste and texture== The dessert is presented ...

Yummy in my Tummy

Advantages: great taste and fills you up!
Disadvantages: calories :(

This has to be the sin of all sins for dieters. Sure chocolate is great but it doesn’t exactly last very long does it! However check out this big chunky viennetta. Heavenly strawberry creamy ice cream topped with a thin layer of dark chocolate. In the whole box there is 816 calories which isn’t really too bad (is it?). As well as having a layer on top you will find that this ice cream bar has chocolate layers inside in the middle. This ...
...really strong and the ice cream melts in your mouth. It is also decorated on the sides showing that a lot of work has been put into making it. It comes in a 320g bar and that bar comes in a red/pink box. It is really bright and it stands out from other ice cream tubs in the freezer. It has a picture of the ice cream with real strawberries next to it. On the back you should find information on what the product is, the nutritional information and ...

Better than sex? Well.......

Advantages: Melts in your mouth, it has ice cream AND chocolate!
Disadvantages: The guilt when you discover you've eaten a whole one!!!!

...are so many varieties of Vienetta on the supermarket shelves nowadays, strawberry, mint, biscuit, plus special editions such as the Forest Fruit and Biscuit you'd be forgiven for buying them all just to try. I however have come to the conclusion that, as with so many things, the original is still the best. Original Vienetta is simply vanilla ice cream with thin layers of chocolate on the top and bottom, and in the middle. First of all, the packaging ...
...and white cardboard box with Vienetta written on the front and sides,a picture of the ice cream,and a whole bunch of information repeated in a whole plethora of languages on the bottom. This is just the ingredients, nutritional information and the address of Walls, the company which makes Vienetta. Once you have found the English bits, you realise why they tried to hide it - per 100g you have no less than 16.4g fat and 252 calories! There is also ...

melt in the mouth (well it is ice cream) minty marvel

Advantages: Thick, creamy, chewy, refreshing
Disadvantages: Melts quickly (don't eat it slowly to savour it!); not enough of it.

Walls is probably my favourite ice cream brand as I love nearly all of the products they have to offer (magnums, Twister, solero etc). Vinetta is no exception. I'm reviewing the mint variety, though there is the original of vanilla; I'm not aware of any other flavours - they should invent a caramel one; that would be divine! Okay, firstly, I must point out I'm not a fan of chocolate mint so this Icecream is pretty special to impress me. It comes ...
...box (to protect it as it is very delicate). The icecream comes as a rectangular block on a brown plastic tray so that is CAN be cut into slices to erm...share? To be hoenst, I think the plastic tray makes a nice little plate for one. Simply open the packet, grab a spoon and disappear to your room and lock the door before anyone notices. Baically, this ice cream is made of layers with rippled edges. The bottom layer is vanilla, followed by thin crisp ...

Crispy Heaven

Advantages: Delicious
Disadvantages: Forget them

...dessert than both together. Vienetta is made by Walls, and as you are probably aware they make great ice cream. It comes in a variety of flavours and for the purposes of this review I shall be tasting the original vanilla and chocolate one. Vienetta comes in an oblong cream coloured box which is emblazoned with a picture of a Vienetta with a slice taken from it. It looks very much like a cake. Fancy swirls of chocolate decorate its exterior. They ...
...find that this serves 5 people with a decent serving or 6 people with a fair serving, depending on how large your main course was. Personally I always leave room for the sweet anyway LOL. Once cut into portions you can see the crispy chocolate intermingled with the vanilla ice cream. The taste is simply delicious as the chocolate and ice cream blend together. Initially it's the ice cream that is predominant, it's sweet but not too sweet and you ...

I'm in love with an Ice Cream!!!

Advantages: Tastes lovely, quite cheap, holds its shape
Disadvantages: none

...My mum started to but Vienetta Ice CReam a few years ago when I was young, and when I had friends around for tea she would serve this up as a special treat. We have it about every other weekend now, usually after our Sunday lunch. Gran comes over and mum shares it between the five of us but it doesn't go far so sometimes we open a second one. Gran has problems eating them though, as ice cream doesn't always agree with her, not just Vienetta, but ...
...bit common and that they are as classy as an ice cream swiss log (I'v enever ad one of these yet), but I think Vienetta is the best frozen ice cream dessert in the worls. Try it soon and you'll see what I mean. Thank you for reading. ...

A slice of naughtiness!

Advantages: Yum! Bit different than other desserts
Disadvantages: 16.2% fat!

...of fat per 100g. Vienetta is made by walls and it keeps to their high quality. + Availability + You can buy these in Iceland and most other supermarkets and tend to cost around £1.99 although there are plenty of offers out there. Each box contains 350g, enough for about 6 reasonably sized servings. The cheaper alternatives do not measure up at all. Although I'm willing to try them if anyone has any suggestions (all in the name of research mind!). ...

Creamy scrummy heaven

Advantages: Creamy scrummy ice cream!
Disadvantages: Calories, but who cares?!

...magnums and solero's. My favourite vienetta is the vanilla one (the original), which I shall be looking at down to the ice creamy crumbs for this review. The ice cream is in a blue and white rectangular shaped box, with a picture of the ice cream on the cover. The whole thing is about 9/10 inches long, and 350g for a normal sized box so will serve a good 5 people, as is the case in our house. A box costs about £1.80, depending on where you go. Iceland ...
...become addicted, flock to Iceland! The ice cream itself is several different layers of ice cream and crispy chocolate slices, and looks almost too good to eat when it sits there in a bowl ready to be cut. It comes on a neat little tray out of the box. When you bight into it...the ice cream and chocolate flavours blend together and taste as creamy as heaven. The chocolate is milk I think, and theres a tiny hint of dark as well, but the milk stands ...

Boring ice cream

Advantages: Its ice cream
Disadvantages: Boring

...I would say this, but vienetta has to be for me the most boring ice cream dessert. It has been around forever and there are still only two main flavours out: mint and original. The original had been around a long time before they even brought the mint one out. The first time I had Vientetta was when i was about 12 years old in my grandmothers cousin's house. At that age I thought it was great having sweeet things because my mother would not and did ...
...i see the boring old vienetta looking at me and i always wonder why would anyone buy it when there are so many other interesting desserts to choose from. A description of vienetta would be a long thinnish hunk of icecream wih chocolate layers through it , which when you bite into a bit the thin layers of chocolate crack in your mouth. I guess this bit is enjoyable, but there just aint enough chocolate and i feel as though i am just eating vanilla ...

To Vienetta or not to Vienetta...

Advantages: What an amazing dessert
Disadvantages: Its never big enough..

...too far wrong with a Vienetta dessert. I have served up two side by side wish whipped cream flavored with either Tia Maria or Marsala wine added a little confectioners sugar to sweeten, then placed it back in the freezer for around an hour, just so the cream becomes hardened, then served it up. Its always gone down a treat, and it looks great if youve been artistic with the pipping of the whipped cream. Its also good served with very special short ...

Creamy crunchy bliss

Advantages: Yummy!
Disadvantages: It gets eaten too quickly!

This is my husband's favourite dessert and we often have it as a treat. The ice cream is so so creamy and the thin sections of chocolate crack and melt in your mouth. It is easy to slice in its plastic tray and looks pretty on the plate, with all its different layers. The side of it almost looks like lace with all its layers and waves. PRICE I usually buy it for around £1.50 STORAGE Store it in the freezer INGREDIENTS Concentrated skimmed milk, ...
