Costco ice cream sundae vs chocolate emporium chocolate sundae.
#tastecheckedonlemon8 #lemon8challenge
Costco ice cream sundae ($2.99). Great taste. Great size. Very chocolatety and refreshing. This is well worth the price. It has cookie crumbles at the top and at the bottom
Chocolate Emporium cookie sundae ($10.99). Same size as Costco.. cool and refreshing, however although it was flavorful, ot was too sweet and sugary.
My recommendation is the Costco sundae. The price was better. It had cookie crumbles throughout vs a full size cookie. The Chocolate Emporium was more vanilla ice cream once you got through the whipped cream and cookie.
Costco for the win!
Having tried both the Costco and Chocolate Emporium sundaes, I found the price difference quite striking given the similar sizes. Costco’s sundae impressed me with its rich, chocolaty flavor and refreshing feel, enhanced by cookie crumbles layered at both the top and bottom. This small detail made every bite interesting and satisfying. On the other hand, the Chocolate Emporium sundae, while visually appealing with its large cookie and generous whipped cream, was overwhelmingly sweet. The sweetness actually detracted from the overall experience for me, as the vanilla ice cream base felt less prominent after the sugary toppings. For those who prefer a dessert that isn't overly sweet, this might be a downside. I also appreciated the value aspect. At $2.99, the Costco sundae offers a delicious, well-balanced treat that doesn’t break the bank, whereas the Chocolate Emporium’s $10.99 option felt less justified given the flavor imbalance. If you're considering grabbing a quick, tasty ice cream sundae, I recommend trying the Costco option first. It pairs well with a casual family outing or a quick dessert fix. Its balance of chocolatey goodness and cookie crunch makes it a standout, especially if you enjoy a more approachable sweetness level. Plus, it's great for sharing if you want to treat friends or family without overspending. Overall, for anyone who loves a classic chocolate sundae with a bit of a twist, Costco’s sundae delivers on both flavor and value. It's my go-to when I want a delicious cool dessert without the guilt of high sugar and steep prices.
