Ever heard of Burger King’s Bacon Sundae dessert as part
of their Summer Menu last year? Well, there have been reviews regarding this
dessert and the critics had very mixed reactions. Seeing as that the
Philippines didn’t have a Burger King branch last year, we were unable to taste
their dish and make reviews ourselves. Well that and the fact that it was only
available for a limited time and having it shipped would have just been plain
stupid.
As I read about this dessert on the Internet, I wondered how
on earth something like bacon could possibly mix with ice cream. I like bacon
and I like ice cream but even I have never had the guts to mix those two
together. I’m weird but this is just too much right? So I decided to make a
small serving and throw the rest out if it sucked. But somehow I was surprised that even someone
like me, who can’t even cook an omelet right, was able to whip up a yummy
dessert.
My homemade version of this dessert was using soft-served
vanilla ice cream, chocolate fudge syrup, and a few strips of crispy fried
bacon. I was able to create a dessert
that was more or less edible and delicious. Well, maybe it was nothing like the
sundae from Burger King but it definitely fit my standards of a weird yet
delicious dessert.
The saltiness of the bacon was a nice contrast to the
sweetness of the ice cream. The flavors blended well together especially when
the crispy bacon was coated in chocolate fudge syrup. The sweetness and
saltiness was simple heavenly. You can feel the crispiness of the bacon as it
breaks off into chunks while you chew it slowly. Savor the rich taste of the
bacon as it mixes with the ice cream and you’ll find yourself wanting for more.
So if you’re a bacon lover, throw a chef’s hat on and waddle into the kitchen
for a bacon-filled dessert.
