Here's a guide to Mumbai's most expensive and deliciously premium ice creams to indulge in


Shortcake strawberry
The egg-less strawberry shortcake ice cream by a Worli-based artisanal ice creamery is inspired by an old-fashioned favourite of strawberries and cream with a textural twist of baked shortcake. Each velvety bite reveals a hint of farm-fresh strawberries that are folded into rich white cream and topped with buttery mouthfuls of freshly baked shortcake.

Irish creme and dark chocolate
This one had us drooling - Irish creme infused with flavour-aged Chivas (18 years). It takes about seven hours to make a batch of Irish creme along with 48 hours of aging. We lapped this up in minutes, though.

Gianduja chocolateice cream with raspberry sorbet
We first tried a Gianduja soup at a masterclass by London-based baker Shaheen Peerbhai, and became instant fans of the sweet chocolate spread containing hazelnut paste. It was invented in Turin during Napoléon Bonaparte's regency. This rare chocolate ice cream paired with a creamy raspberry sorbet is fit for a king.
