When I look into a freezer full of ice-cream and I am not sure what to get, I will often pick up a Parm Chocolate Ice Cream bar, particularly if I'm looking for a bit of chocolate with my ice-cream. It's always a reliable choice. With its smooth chocolate layer melting along with the creamy core, it is the ideal choice for a bit of sweetness and luxury. The wrapping also conveys that luxury feel, with the beautiful chic red and stylized font. It's a good size too - not too big, not too small. But it's that delicious I sometimes get the feeling that I could have eaten more!

The biggest drawback is the price. It's not cheap, but what is these days! Moreover, its only marginally more expensive than other options, so it feels like it's worth the extra yen for a more luxurious product. I bought it in the convenience store this time, which meant it was even more expensive as you are paying for the 'convenience'. It would be (marginally) cheaper in a drug store or supermarket. I only buy it occasionally, so it doesn't break the bank. However, if you're in the habit of buying ice cream regularly, this might not be the best product to become addicted to given the price. Overall, I am happy with this product and would buy it again. I also have no hesitation in recommending it as one to try if you like chocolate on your ice-cream.
