Milkcow, a Korean soft serve ice-cream chain, prides itself in its use of 100% organic natural milk honeycomb. All superfluousness aside, Milkcow does serve up an extremely milky and creamy ice-cream. The ice-cream is milk-flavored, without a trace of vanilla. As the relatively new kid on the block, Milkcow has to compete against the likes of Honey Creme, llaollao, and umm Thai Ice Cream Rolls just to name a few. 

Milkcow's menu

As you can see, you're pretty much spoilt for choice over here. Well, we're going to run through a few items on their menu, so hopefully you will be able to make a more informed decision when you get there. Lets begin!  

Snow drop: cotton candy, jelly beans and M&Ms

Snow Drop ($5.90) -- Candy floss on top, organic salt ice cream, jelly beans and M&Ms. What could possibly go wrong with this beauty? Almost everything actually. Unlike salted caramel or salted chocolate, where there's a balance between sweetness and saltiness, salt and milk seems to be pushing it a little. It tasted pretty weird too in our opinion. But of course, opinions are subjective. The nail in the coffin was, however, the jelly beans. Word of advice: stay far far far away from those, lest you want a broken tooth. Loved the candy floss by the way.

Milk Cube: contains organic honey comb!

Milky Cube ($5.90) -- This is the poster girl/boy of Milkcow. Soft serve ice-cream with a slab of organic, unadulterated honeycomb. No bees included. The honeycomb was kind of hard to enjoy though as it was waxy, cloyingly sweet and stuck to the roof of our mouth.  

Milky Honey: with a drizzle of organic honey

Milky Honey ($5.50) -- This was probably the best of the lot. Plain and simple, just the ice-cream with a drizzle of the organic honey. We loved how the sweetness of the honey contrasted nicely with the savory ice-cream.
