| Dan Eric? |
Dan Eric's is a local ice cream brand that is quite popular here in the South (although I’ve been told they also have it up North in the Rizal area as well.) It’s creamy texture and tasty flavors make this one truly heavenly dessert, rivaling the best and well-known brands, but at a fraction of the cost.
My personal fave is their Choco Marble flavor with it’s marshmallow-like consistency.

The price? So affordable! Prices start at Php15 for a cup to Php160 for half a gallon. It definitely won’t burn holes on your pocket.
Another thing I love about Dan Eric’s ice creams, no matter how long we’ve placed them inside the freezer, they never seem to completely turn rock solid. They’re still as easy to scoop out and retain their shape quite nicely.

There are a few downsides:
1. They melt quite easily. Not really a big deal. I know lots of people who prefer their ice creams a little melted. Unfortunately, I’m not one of them. Hehehe! J
2. Dan Eric’s ice creams aren’t available in major supermarkets or grocery stores. We usually buy them at select corner sari-sari stores and whatnot. Smalls signs are what informs the public that there are Dan Eric’s ice creams available.
3. Flavors are a little limited selling only the very basics (i.e. Chocolate, Vanilla, Fruit Salad, etc.) If yours is of a more adventurous palette, then this brand may not be to your liking.
Dan Eric’s ice creams have slowly become a part of some of our previous clan reunions (ravenous people, these relatives of mine. J) They make the perfect dessert at such an affortable price.
cavite lang ba to? kinain ko to last sat while waiting for my turn (check-up sa alabang). not really sure sa spelling pero dan eric's ang tanda ko, chocofi and rocky road ang nabili ni hubby.(P12) =) pero wala sa choices of flavors mo.
ReplyDeleteI've seen a Dan Eric somewhere in Manila, where I used to live. But never tried it. :D

ReplyDeleteI remember having my first DE way back in college @ DLSU-D.
ReplyDeleteA store across Niog, Cavite used to sell DE's but I no longer see it every time we pass by.
Good thing there's a house inside one village in Lipa that still sells DE :)
I am not a south person :|
ReplyDeleteBut I wanna try!
hmm... haven't sighted one yet but i'll make sure to try even a pint kapag nakakita ako. :)
ReplyDeleteFirst time to hear about this brand. Where can we buy? We live in Las Pinas.
ReplyDeleteI got curious tuloy. Haha. Dan Eric looks good. :) Too bad from the North. I don't think I'll find it when I visit home. :(

@bursky: Pints are only a 100 bucks. Really affordable. =)
@Eileen: There are some in Paranaque too. Not sure where in Las Pinas. You'll really have to keep an eye open for their sale signs. =)
