What is summer without a scoop or two of ice cream? The Magnolia Bakery in Bengaluru has launched new flavours: Each scoop can be paired with an array of toppings and garnishes. So, you can choose a ruby chocolate, made with vanilla ice cream blended with white chocolate and berries, and garnish it with a berry fruit crumble. Or opt for the hazelnut flavour, topped with toasted nuts. Some popular toppings include pecan crumble, chocolate and blueberry. Those who don’t relish dairy products can try out sorbets, such as the strawberry one. The hand-made ice creams are churned out fresh daily.
