LOVE it!
...that's an understatement!
a gourmet ice cream / ice pop place in raleigh? all natural ingredients? holy crap!
loco pops is located on hillsborough st. in raleigh across from the nc state campus, and has been the object of my desire for quite a while now.
i can't lie. i've been studying their menu for weeks. checking the regular flavors, checking the guest stars every week. deciding what i want.
and finally, the day has come!
i decided to have their cherry lime ice pop. i thought of those delicious diet cherry limeades from sonic, and figured it was a necessity. it was tangy and super sweet. i was surprised by how sweet it was, seeing as all the ingredients are natural. i thought the ice pop was amazing, sweet and tangy and perfectly refreshing.
i also tried the cookies n' cream pop, which was super creamy but not as overwhelming as ice cream. it was creamy, light, and sweet and had HUGE chunks of oreo in them. yum!
the last pop i tried today was the vanilla cinnamon heath. i thought this would maybe be too overwhelming with the cinnamon, but the cream pop was light and creamy, still sweet and had a hint of cinnamon that brought out that deep caramel & toffee flavor in the heath bar.
perfect!
...and because tasting three different pops wasn't nearly enough for me i brought home:
-a pint of mojito sorbet
-a cucumber ginger pop
-a mexican chocolate pop (chocolate with nutmeg, cinnamon, & clove)
-a chocolate brownie pop
don't worry, i'll be happy to update you on how delicious those are as soon as i eat them.
