Our Review Factors
What were we looking for in Havmor Cookies and Cream Ice Cream? We were looking for a delicious, milky-creamy ice cream with ample amounts of cookie bits.
1. Taste
Cookies and cream is typically vanilla-flavored ice cream with chocolate cookies. In this ice cream, we looked for milkiness with the floral sweetness of vanilla. Was the decadence of cocoa prominent? How was the balance between the two elements and the overall sweetness.
2. Texture
Ice cream should be smooth and devoid of grainy/gritty bites. Cookies, on the other hand, must have a soft, crumbly texture. Did Havmor Cookies and Cream Ice Cream get this right?
3. Secondary Parameters
The price, packaging, shelf life, ingredients, were gauged here.

Aroma + Appearance
This ice cream had a vanilla-like base with small and large crumbs of the dark brown cookies. It looked appetizing, and the aroma added to this element. It was fresh and milky with a hint of chocolate.
Taste + Consistency
If we had to explain the flavor of Havmor Cookies and Cream Ice Cream in a word, we’d say delicious. We loved the interplay of classic flavors like vanilla (ice cream) and chocolate (cookies/cake). This goes without saying, but both elements of this dessert are essentially sweet, hence as a whole, this was fairly on the sweeter side but not overwhelming.
The texture was fairly interesting. With the smooth creaminess of the ice cream, the cookie bits added a crumbly graininess. As the cookie bits are embedded in ice cream, the characteristic texture (obviously) changes and the bits developed a soft, cakey bite.
All-in-all, the flavors and texture work in its favor.
Pros
- Flavor justifies the tag
- Interesting textures of cookies
- Milky ice cream
Cons
- The sweetness levels are slightly higher than average, which might not be enjoyed by everyone.
Best Suited For
