Musk!

So it turns out that musk ice cream is delish! Of course, I love musk sticks, so it was somewhat of a given, but I did wonder if it would be too sweet or too...something...for icecream. But instead, it worked perfectly, with this lovely musky flavour coming through the extra smooth, creamy ice cream. I don't know how I managed it, but I think I got the level of lifesavers needed for the flavour just right. Too many more and it might have been a bit strong, less and it might have been weak. Or maybe, as I did do it through guess work and nothing else, it didn't really didn't matter and I could have added the entire packet for the same effect.

I was just searching for pictures of musk lifesavers - as I thought it might be nice to add a picture here - and I had no idea they were an "Australian" flavour. I do know that they are not to everyone's taste, even here, but I love them. Whether as a musk stick, or a lifesaver, they are just so yummy. But an extremely difficult flavour to describe.
