Dippin' Dots Ice Cream - The Food Scout

Just because it’s reunion season, I’ve been reunited with my childhood ice cream favorite, Dippin’ Dots!

It feels like grade school again with the ice cream store I visit with my parents at Shangri-la Mall. Before we took our time shopping around Rustan’s, my parents used to treat me a cup of my favorite ice cream dots. I don’t recall any flavor I liked. What I remember, was the playful me trying to fool around with the dotted ice cream, letting it melt in my mouth while it was frozen.

A reunion between Dippin‘ Dots Shangri-la branch and myself happened a few days ago. The store looked the same, only with a new set of products. Recently during Dippin’ Dots’ 18th anniversary (Oops wait. That’s how old Dippin’ Dots is! Almost close to my age. Well, not almost. Just close.) last December 7, the unique ice cream brand launched their newest product – the Prepacks.

Prepacks (Php 100)

Prepacks – same Dippin’ Dots ice cream, only packaged differently so that you can grab it and eat on-the-go. I don’t advise Prepacks for take-out. I dared and tried to save the dots on the way home. Failure met me. While walking in Shangri-la Mall as I held the Prepacks with my warm hands, the dots were starting to soften, not melting easily though. Still best to eat them once taken out of the cold freezer. Or, not too long after taking them out of its cold hub.

As I was walking around Shangri-la, feeding myself with Dippin’ Dots Cotton Candy flavor, I looked at myself as a child holding a stick of fluffy ball-sized sweet cotton candy with one hand. Takes me back to the child version of myself, hooked to anything sweet and cold. But as I look sideways and see a glimpse of my reflection, it’s the 20-ish me holding a pack of ice cream dots. These cold tiny dots were gently brushing on cold cotton candy flavor each time it melts. Dippin’ Dots subtly tours me back to 18 years ago.
