Hokey Pokey (ice Cream)
Hokey pokey is a flavour of ice cream in New Zealand, consisting of plain vanilla ice cream with small, solid lumps of honeycomb toffee. Hokey pokey is the New Zealand term for honeycomb toffee. The original recipe until around 1980 consisted of solid toffee, but in a marketing change Tip-Top decided to use small balls of honeycomb toffee instead.

Origins and etymology The term hokey pokey has been used in reference to honeycomb toffee in New Zealand since the late 19th century. The origin of this term, in reference to honeycomb specifically, is not known with certainty, and it is not until the mid-20th century that hokey-pokey ice cream was created.

Mint Chocolate Chip
Mint chocolate chip is an ice cream flavor composed of mint ice cream with small chocolate chips. In some cases the liqueur crème de menthe is used to provide the mint flavor, but in most cases peppermint or spearmint flavoring is used. Food coloring is usually added to make it green, but it may be beige or white in "all natural" or "organic" varieties. According to the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA), 3% of all ice cream sold in 2000 was mint chocolate chip, making it the 10th-most popular flavor of ice cream. In a July 2017 survey by IDFA, mint chocolate chip was ranked as America's 4th most popular ice cream flavor.

Goody Goody Gum Drops
Goody Goody Gum Drops is a New Zealand flavour of ice cream made by Tip Top. It is pastel green-coloured, bubble gum flavoured and infused with gumdrops. It is considered iconic to New Zealand, and perception of the flavour is polarising among New Zealanders. Some people consider it to be a "national delicacy", while others consider it a "national disgrace". History Goody Goody Gum Drops was invented in 1983 by general director of Tip Top, Murray Taylor. According to Taylor, having a good distribution of gumdrops in the ice cream is difficult and "Very few ice-cream makers in the world would have attempted it". In 2008, Tip Top created a variant of the ice cream flavour on a stick as a limited edition. At the time it was described as a technical triumph. According to Taylor, it took two years for the stick version to be created, due to distribution of the gumdrops being a problem. At first they all came out as a big lump, and Danish consultants created a mathematical model o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
