The churro bowl, the latest ice cream receptacle trending around the world

The internet entered a particularly manic phase recently when somebody in Prague had the good sense to put ice cream inside a Hungarian chimney cake. Locally, Old Town Italy served ice cream up in a doughnut cone, and we’ve had a sudden explosion of ice cream sandwiches. But there’s another new ice-cream receptacle for you, this time with a Mexican flavour. We give you the churro ice-cream bowl.

Milky Lane in Sydney hadn’t even opened yet when its proposed #churrobowl started going viral. It’s debatable, though, as to who came up with the idea first. At the impressively named Churro Borough in LA, you can order a churro ice-cream sarmie, but we have to say a bowl seems more practical.

Several helpful individuals have already produced DIY videos, and although the recipe looks a leeedle bit complicated to us, home bakers are enthusiastically attempting them.

Desperate to have a churro bowl right now? We don’t know of anyone doing them yet in SA, but the helpful people at Tasty have produced a magnificent recipe, which involves making a basic churro batter, piping it around upturned muffin tins, freezing the whole shebang and then deep-frying the bowls. The result? A beautiful, bowl-shaped churro that can be dipped in cinnamon sugar and then filled with ice cream and chocolate sauce.

Savanna-Loco-with-Lemon-Salt-LRLove a leeedle Mexican? Savanna Loco is a new special-release cider from the popular premium cider makers, combining the crisp taste of Savanna Dry with fresh tequila flavour. Look out for new Savanna Loco at your local city hangouts, bars and Mexican restaurants.
