Tickle your taste buds with fruit-based savoury popsicles
and nitrogen ice cream, ladled out with sea breeze and a view
fruit based popsicles and nitrogen ice creams
The truck,which was launched a month ago, has already become
a popular spot at the beach front. Both young and old walk around licking their
bright sticks; the flavours include mojito, buttermilk, pomegranate, mango
and jamun,among others. “As ice creams are synonymous with the chocolate
flavour, we have included three types of chocolate popsicles as well,” says
Prabu.
Though, they had some trepidations about the savoury
flavours, it proved to be unfounded. “Our customers who stop by seem to love
the idea of kaara saara ice candy. Right now it is buttermilk
with kaara boondi and jamun with bhujia sev on
the menu,” says Jaiyanth. And if you think that sounds exotic, try this: a
coconut milk-based popsicle sprinkled with activated charcoal derived from
coconut shell and desiccated coconut.
As the sun sets on Besant Nagar beach, crowds flock to the
truck to watch ice-cream being made. We watch liquid nitrogen being blended
into vanilla-flavoured milk and Aavin pal khoa: a delicious mass
of thirattipal -flavoured ice-cream emerges in minutes. There are
currently 10 flavours available, with plans to launch a gulab jamun- flavoured
one soon. Why the name Tickle? “Our unique and unusual flavours are sure to
tickle your taste buds and moreover, the idea of popsicles brings a smile on
everyone’s face. So we chose this name,” says Prabu.
The Tickle Truck is stationed at 32nd Cross Street, Besant
Nagar (close to Spaces), from 5 pm to 11 pm everyday except Mondays.9884227789
