A Bandra-based homegrown ice cream outlet gives a desi spin to classic flavours. We ordered their new flavour for a team-tasting session

Ice cream is a simple feel-good indulgence, and makes for an effortless and a soul-satisfying treat. Indu Ice cream in Bandra is a home-grown platform that offers twists with refreshing flavours and textures to their ice-creams and sorbets. This writer was curious to taste their newest creation, vanilla hot fudge with kaju chikki, so we called for a middle-of-the-day sweet treat in the newsroom.
The order took 29 minutes to arrive at our destination. To our surprise, the packaging was impressive for an ice cream sundae; it was reminiscent of our nani’s matka kulfi that she wraps in muslin cloth before serving it. The package came with dry ice, so it was cool by the time it was handed over to us.

The outlet offers tubs, matkas and sundaes unlike your usual scoops, enhancing the experience to more than enjoying ice cream. The portion size (170 gms) is proportionate for a sundae, but we felt that the price might be a tad off-putting for an ice cream. As the team, filled with sweet-toothed souls, scooped into it, we found that it was layered with a solid chocolate disc with wafers crisps and chikki bites. Overall, the taste was a combination of vanilla hot fudge, with subtle hints of caramelised flavours from the kaju chikki bites. This sundae is a fun sugar rush in the middle of a working day, if you prefer a bit of experimentation with your favourite plain vanilla ice cream. Other flavours available at the outlet include kaapi tiramisu ice cream sundae, pistachio baklava and mango malai matka.
