TaiwanTaipei, Snow King Ice Cream
- Food Travel Log
- Among the 73 varieties, I was recommended the mango ice cream at "Xue Wang Ice Cream." Made from Taiwanese green mango, this simple-looking ice cream deceived me. On my tongue, it felt like pure mango fruit, so dense and fiber-rich that it seemed as if I was eating the fruit itself. The craftsmanship was evident, making the high price worth it.

- Mango is one of Taiwan's specialties, and it is a fruit particularly enjoyed for its sweetness and aroma during the summer. The green mangoes used in Taiwan are known for their unique sweet and sour taste when unripe, and this bold flavor is beautifully utilized in the ice cream. Snow King Ice Cream, established in 1950, is one of Taiwan's historic ice cream shops, boasting a wide range of flavors and renowned for its craftsmanship in turning any ingredient into ice cream. The shop's mango ice cream uses a unique blending technique to preserve the mango's fiber, offering the sensation of the fruit itself. However, the author became so excited about the richness of this ice cream that their blog report started to blur the lines between the quality of the fruit and the excellence of the ice cream. Perhaps in future reviews, it would be good to clearly distinguish whether the mango ice cream or the author’s impression is more intense.
