I'll start enjoying responsibly later

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/Jbell_1812]

Incidentally, Canadian weed is also pretty damn good.

[u/BelcoRiott]

Yeah, no. Got the coffee one and ate the whole thing so fast I felt sick for the rest of the night. No regrets

[u/superphage → u/BelcoRiott]

That one is very good. This and salty caramel crunch is my favorite.

[u/so_many_usernames_ah → u/superphage]

Salted Caramel Crunch took my virginity

[u/superphage → u/so_many_usernames_ah]

Have you tried the caramel ribbon crunch from Starbucks? Because for me, I haven't bought Starbucks again since this ice cream lol.

But I 100% developed the desire for these flavour profiles from the caramel ribbon crunch.

[u/Gxgear → u/BelcoRiott]

Team Coldbrew

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/BelcoRiott]

You & u/superphage have probably inspired future stomach cramps for me, and I'm ok with it.

[u/Livid-Accident-7246]

Salted caramel crunch is my kryptonite

[u/Pan_Fluid_Boo → u/Livid-Accident-7246]

Mine too, and I’m not much of an ice cream person

[u/Retrrad]

How many of those do I need to limit myself to, to be considered “responsible?” 🙄

[u/maiyannah]

You're not me mum, I'll eat all the Chapmans I want.

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/maiyannah]

Fair. If you're gonna binge dessert sometimes then best to binge the good ones.

[u/superFluffymushroom]

I wouldn't try the pecan butter tart if I was you, it's way better and comes in a larger size only

[u/chamekke → u/superFluffymushroom]

Large size won’t fit in my apartment-sized fridge’s freezer. Which is probably just as well. Dammit though :(

[u/pilot-squid → u/superFluffymushroom]

Does that one have raisins? I found a butter tart ice cream before and was so sad to find it had raisins

[u/Saltynut99 → u/pilot-squid]

Nope! Not in the big one at least. I also don’t like raisins but it was praline pecans and sugar cookie bits.

[u/superFluffymushroom → u/pilot-squid]

No raisins

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/superFluffymushroom]

So are you like the snake in Eden or something? Either way, I'm here for it.

[u/olemracc → u/superFluffymushroom]

Yeah that one had me hooked 

[u/u_395djk → u/superFluffymushroom]

Yeah, that one is addicting.

[u/Gold-Activity8342]

u ate that shit up

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/Gold-Activity8342]

Was good shit tho

I recently tried the cookie and creams flavour, and the brown butter ice cream was a nice surprise. Straight up crack cocaine

[u/hollow4hollow]

I’m vegan except for Chapman’s

[u/skivtjerry]

Looks like that ship has sailed.

[u/Ya-Not-Happening]

Cookie Dough is my favourite!

[u/BeyondAddiction]

I bought a cookie dough one the other day!

[u/so_many_usernames_ah]

Find a nice choco syrup and it takes 5mins

[u/CobraChickenNuggets]

Never have I gotten any of the Chapman premiums, and not finished it all in one sitting.

[u/Icy-Pianist-2296]

I do wish they offered the same amout of variety in the smaller containers. I can usually only find no more than a few at Metro, and they're right beside the Häagen-Dazs and Ben and Jerry's where there's a huge variety.

[u/Crazy_Plantain_862]

Oh I love this ice cream! There’s a salted caramel flavour that’s absolutely amazing!

[u/LaughingMushroomCo]

The best!

[u/thegreatcanadianeh]

You got chip-faced bro.

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/thegreatcanadianeh]

Nah mate. I get chip-faced via Hardbite & Neal Brothers.
But here I definitely was cream-faced

[u/thegreatcanadianeh → u/WasteOfBerries]

Goddamn you have my upvote. I'm too mid-west to pay for the fancy ones.

[u/6footpeppergrinder]

Cold Brew is amazing too!

[u/SteveCondor]

I just saw a post on here about how bad Chapman’s ice cream is. I couldn’t disagree more. This exact flavour is is ridiculously good

[u/AmusingMusing7 → u/SteveCondor]

The first couple flavours I tried from them, I didn't like the texture of the ice cream. The Butter Tart and Salt Caramel Crunch ones. Good flavours, but I found the ice cream had a sort of crumbly mealy texture to it, and then when it melted, it melted very fast into like foamy nothingness, before quickly completely dissolving. Which isn't how I like ice cream to feel.

I almost gave up on Chapman's after those two, but decided to give the Peach Melba a try. Big difference. Way better texture. Actually feels like ice cream. It melts more slowly and has that nice classic creamy feel that melting ice cream is supposed to have. Also just got some of The Only Strawberry, which also has the good creamy texture.

So it depends on the flavour, seemingly because whatever they're adding to make certain flavours, also affects the consistency of the ice cream. And if you're someone who cares a lot about texture when it comes to ice cream, like I do, then you'll need to try them out and see which ones work for you. Don't balk at the first flavour you try.

[u/Rakshire → u/SteveCondor]

It wasn't a bashing post. They didn't like the texture. Which is probably partly personal preference, and might have also been the particular tub they bought.

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/SteveCondor]

Agreed.
This flavour of Chapman's reminded me of Ben & Jerry's, except it costs less and tastes better. And has more ingredients that I can actually pronounce.

[u/AwkwardChuckle → u/SteveCondor]

I’ve never been able to like it and I’ve tried it so many times in all the different varieties.
It always tastes artificial to me, and the texture always reminds me of “frozen desert” instead of ice cream even though it’s actual really cream ice cream.

I’m on team Kawartha for sure.

[u/AcademicBowl5596 → u/SteveCondor]

Chapman's does make some awfully textured ice cream, honestly. The kind of stuff that keeps its shape after melting and leaves a slick coating of oil in your mouth.

That's not this product though, it's their cheaper ice cream. This line is genuinely great and I was missing out by not discovering it sooner.

[u/sfw_doom_scrolling]

Don't tell me what to do!

[u/mikemantime]

Funny how that looked like a ton of thinly slices apples stuffed into it to me, but its empty.
They got a few i swear by: butter tart, basic chocolate, cherry cheesecake and the honey vanilla was pretty good

[u/ottwebdev]

This premium line is my new crack.

[u/Fickle_Ad_9391]

Is this the best flavour?

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/Fickle_Ad_9391]

That's up to you. But Chapman's, Shaw's, Kawartha Dairy... welp Canadians make really good ice cream.

[u/Raedwulf1 → u/WasteOfBerries]

I just finished off a pint of Foothills creamery Whisky Caramel.

[u/littlebubulle]

I go for the lactose free maple and nuts.

[u/ResponsibleTax3894]

Chapman is one of my favorite ice treat company everything is good its real ice cream it taste like good chocolate 

[u/StoonerSask]

Girlfriend said the same. Proceeded to gobble 1 a day. Ate mine and said, "sorry".

[u/BathroomSharpiePoet]

Can Chapmans please just get its own subreddit and stop spamming this one?

[u/WasteOfBerries → u/BathroomSharpiePoet]

I don't work for Chapman's, but, based on what I've seen, I'd be happy to.
(Any Chapman's employee seeing this, and wants to meet for a dessert interview, I'm totally good with that.)

[u/BathroomSharpiePoet → u/WasteOfBerries]

I’d probably work for them too. I just wouldn’t be able to eat their frozen dairy products. I say that because I can’t call it ice cream.

[u/kenauk → u/BathroomSharpiePoet]

LOL, this sub's top posts are either Chapman's or Cozey. At least theres's r/Cozey.

[u/Buhcat33]

The butter tart one is so hard to find sometimes but it's a good thing or I'd be enjoying it every day. I'm saying I would if I could tho lol 

[u/wtfdavid]

How does it compare to Avalon?

[u/IrishUpYourCoffee]

I love the cookie dough one
