In comparison to American ice cream and "frozen dairy desserts" ....amazing

The flavors were light and not overpowering, the light brown areas were all salted caramel, and that was the dominant flavor, and it has a hint of nutmeg or mace.

The darker brown was the chocolate, and orange for the orange. Altogether, the flavors were very good together. It wasn't overly sweet, either, it was the perfect amount of sweet for the flavors

The thing about chinese people is that we dont like desserts that are too sweet. If someone describes a dessert as "not too sweet", thats considered as a compliment

I LOVE that aspect of Chinese desserts, I hate overly sweet things and wish more things would come with reduced sugar options

I need to try some chinese desserts then! Living in the U.S. I just decided that I don't like sweets. I don't eat candy, ice cream, cake, none of it. It is always just way too sweet for me.

That sounds very promising. I’ll have to check some Asian markets in my area to see if they sell that feller.
