SUPERB!
Summary
No ice crystals and a creamy richness- the texture of Amul Rajbhog ice cream was remarkable. Taste-wise, this did hold the characteristic milky Rajbhog flavor, but the aromatic spices (cardamom and saffron) were too subtle.
While nothing beats the classics, there are days when the plain ol’ vanilla or chocolate wouldn’t make the cut. Something more premium? Nutty even?
Amul, one of India’s leading dairy brands, offers an exciting Bengali-inspired flavor. Our Amul Rajbhog ice cream review sheds light on all parameters that impact the buying decision.

Our Review Factors
Our review process started by scanning the ingredient list, gauging the texture, commencing the taste test, all while collecting data and recording our observations.
1. Taste
‘Rajbhog’ is a Bengali dessert prepared with cottage cheese that is characterized by rich flavors of aromatic spices like saffron and cardamom. Did Amul’s ice cream feature this?
What about the sweetness, balanced or overpowering?
This contains nuts too. Are they fresh or have they gone bad?
2. Texture
Smooth, creamy, soft but scoopable- this is the texture we were looking for. What we didn’t want were ice crystals at the surface or between bites.
What did we get?
3. Main Ingredients
The common ingredients required for preparing ice cream are milk, sugar, and milk products like milk powder/whey powder.
The primary difference between ice creams and frozen desserts is the use of vegetable oil. The former should NOT contain this or any form of it.
