Magnums

Yes....finally a blog on all the Magnums that Kim and I have tried....not Kim OR I....but Kim AND I.....where to start....the classic...the one we all know....

Magnum Classic: Vanilla ice cream covered with smooth, silky milk chocolate....yummie...simple but good

Classic: found in South Africa

Magnum Almond: Second best know....vanilla ice cream covered with milky choc with almond splinters....i definitely prefer this to the classic...but i am a nut lover...so yes...there is bias....

Pic...still needed.....

Magnum Hazelnut: This has choclate ice cream and is covered with chcolate with hazelnut splinters....yummie...but i would rather have the Almond Magnum

Hazelnut: found in South Afica
White Magnum: white choc with vanilla ice cream....believe it or not...i actually like it...different...white choc is of course sweeter...but it actually tastes yummie...and there is nuts in the choc covering the ice cream...bonus
Hmmmmm....i dont have a pic
Mint Magnum: dont ask me exactly how this one was....i dont remember the ice cream or the covering....i took one bite, didnt like it and that was that....i kind of knew that i woud not like it though cause i dont like mint and choc together....kim on the other hand liked it....but then again he likes mint and chocolate.....so for me...no thanx.
Mint: Found in South Africa
Biscotti Magnum: choc and almond flavoured ice cram covered with milk choc and biscuit pieces.... divine...love it....def a must try...this is based of course on the famous Italian biscuit...yummie.....biscotti.....
Biscotti: found in South Africa

Strawberry Magnum: vanilla ice cream with swirls of straberry covered with milk chocolate....not bad...cause it is just strawberry swirls in the vanilla ice cream...it is not strawberrry ice cream...which prob some people would love....good but i would only choose if nothing else.....well..i will put it above the mint...

Strawberrry: Found in the Philippines
Pistaccio Magnum: Pistaccio ice cReam covered in choc....oh my word....love it...how can i not...im an absoloute fan on pistaccio ice cream...and Magnums are divine...so yes...this is a hit...first we discovered it in Naples...and then lucky me...it also exists in Turkey....we found it in Izmir....so cool....def def a mist try..
Pistaccio: Found in Naples and Turkey
Choc Capuccino Magnum: vanilla ice cream flavoured with coffee and covered with milk choc and sugar splinters....yummie...the sugar splinters are excellent..That is what i love about this Magnum....i really like it...also the coffee flavour is very subte not over povering at all...divine....
Choc Capuccino: Found in Thailand
Death by choc Magnum: choc ice cream covered with dark choc...what is there not to like..no vanilla...yes...sometimes you definitely want vanilla...but if in one of those really chocolate moods...go for this...i enjoyed it....

Sandwich Magnum: has no wodden holding stick..it is vanilla ice cream, but more of a soft serve type and one side is covered with dark choc and nuts and the other side is sanwiched between soft biscuit...man this is sooooo good...i love love love it....wow....the only thing that could make it the best....pistaccio ice cream instead of vanilla...then again...that might be too much...so for me...just a very hard choice if i see pistaccio magnum and sandwich magnum...damn....

Sandwich Magnum: found in Naples

Pink Magnum:.....chamapgne ice cream with pink swirls and choc covering...and above choc covering...it is glitter pink....love the ice cream...but i like eating choc and ice cream seperate...cause otherwise choc over powers champagne....but good....but def doesnt beat sandwich or pistaccio

Pink Magnum: found in Mykonos

Now...of course we will have to try the black (espresso) also....as well as the brownie and any others....if there is one i missed out...please let me know..but for now...this is my Magnum blog....cheers

Podere il Casale

Beautiful place near Monticchiello in the Southern Tuscany. My parents, together with Mutti and Sofia went there whilst Kim and I were in Corsica. They raved about it, stating that it was Swiss owned and they met the couple who owns and runs it. They are actively involved and so are their children. Their food is produced on the farm, they are famous for their Pecorino cheese. They also offer Pizza and bread courses, camping etc etc....in fact i was really looking forward to visiting this place. They have outdoor and indoor seating but i must say the outdoor seating cannot be compared to the indoor hall. The outside is quaint, picturesque and has breath-taking views. There is quite a long dirt road following up to Podere il Casale....its not so easily found. The sign at the entrance is also not too good. Once we parked a beautiful sign welcomed us....let me share a pic... Podere il Casale As mentioned the place was quaint and picturesque with beautiful laid tables....and a fabulous vi...
