When I was a kid, I would use any leftover lunch money I had to buy one thing – a Heaven chocolate ice-cream. It was chocolate ice-cream in the middle with a milk chocolate shell and a popsicle stick holding it together, and I believed it was the best tasting thing in the universe. I bought it so often, over so many years, I became a walking inflation barometer. Until one day it was discontinued.
Ever since that day, more than 20 years ago, I have been looking for the next great ice-cream stick to spend my life with. So I held the culinary equivalent of a speed-dating session to find it.
