Personal sized pie crust, with one scoop of vanilla ice cream. Take one tablespoon of liw-sodium soy salt, and mix in brown sugar until saturated. Drizzle the resulting syrup over the ice cream. Don't know what to call it, but I'd try it.

cum flavored taffy

[–] arctanthrope@lemmy.world 28 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

y'all're going about this all wrong, trying to come up with things that sound gross. the real strategy is to describe something you wish existed but doesn't. then if someone points out that it does, you "lose" by finding out about a food you would really like but were unaware of.

anyway, mine is coffee chocolate chip walnut ice cream (even though apparently op says new ice cream flavors don't count). so if anyone knows where I can buy coffee chocolate chip walnut ice cream, come own me so hard, I'll be devastated

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

I just buy different flavors that will go together, and overlap, so when one carton is 1/2 empty I’ll get a new flavor that will mix in. So there’s usually a 1/2 carton overlap.

Also mixins like chopped nuts and sauces are good now and then too.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 10 points 18 hours ago

You completely understand the premise, i hope i worded it okay

[–] MrsDoyle@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

I made coffee and walnut biscuits once. Lovely recipe, and chocolate chips would be an excellent addition. Yum!

[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

Chocolate-coated tacks.

[–] Krusty@quokk.au 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Phase-Order Candy Prism.

Picture a small edible prism made of ultra-thin layers of sugar glass and gelatinized starch, but the trick is in the internal structure of each layer contains flavor “micro-reservoirs” embedded in lipid membranes tuned to dissolve at different osmotic thresholds, not time.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

I am intrigued! Bring it to shark tank/dragons den

[–] mrmaplebar@fedia.io 8 points 17 hours ago

Nice try, Slugworth...

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 9 points 19 hours ago (6 children)

Bitter Boys. Think Sour Patch kids, but instead of being coated in sour powder, it's extreme bitterness.

[–] FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago (3 children)

Kind of sounds awesome. Bitter sweets are special

I'm thinking a puff pastry roll filled with a minty sweet creamy filling and chocolate chips. That shit would be bomb, tell me it exists already so I can get some!

[–] bizarroland@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

I don't think that already exists, but it seems like all you'd have to do is mash up some peppermint patties and put it into the center of a cinnamon roll sans cinnamon.

Also, to me, it kind of sounds disgusting.

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 4 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

I'm gonna shred some vegan chocolate and put it with tomato sauce on a lightly toasted flat dough, then stick it in the oven. Pizza with chocolate instead of cheese.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

If you have to eat that, you lose anyway.

[–] Grail@multiverse.soulism.net 1 points 14 hours ago

Recently I tried some sea salt vegan chocolate, it was amazing. Chocolate and salt go way better together than I thought. So add that to savoury bread and a little tomato tang, I think it's a great idea. It's like a salty croissant.

[–] badlotus@discuss.online 5 points 17 hours ago

Honey butter aerogel with suspended almonds and pistachios in a dark chocolate cone.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

De-tangled cotton candy. Just a single razor thin thread of sugar like a mile long.

I just love this description so much ❤️

[–] pooberbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 14 hours ago

Sounds kind of like dragon's beard candy.

[–] FritzApollo@lemmy.today 6 points 18 hours ago (4 children)

Stir-fry flavoured ice cream.

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (1 children)

Wokhei flavored ice cream would go stupid hard 🤤

With some umami soy syrup drizzled on top

[–] Kanzar@sh.itjust.works 1 points 15 hours ago

A restaurant did this amazing tempura eggplant with a black vinegar caramel, and we saved the sauce for the icecream... It was very, very good.

I don't know other than to say that we need more savory candies for those of us who aren't into sweets. And crackers don't count.

[–] turdburglar@piefed.social 3 points 18 hours ago

avocado flavor bubblegum

[–] EndOfLine@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

I'm thinking of something like an asthma inhaler, but you don't inhale and instead of medicine being ejected when activated a fine powder of concentrated flavor comes out. The powder flavors your saliva for a few seconds to a minute. And, since rumor has it that 50% of taste is smell, it a complimentary scent will also be exposed when activating.

Tasty flavor treat with minimal or possible even 0 calories.

[–] XeroxCool@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

Somewhere around 2010, there was a chocolate spray.

Are we reverse engineering vapes

[–] Today@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

More like a fine powder version of sour candy mouth spray.

[–] alternategait@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

If someone makes this, it could really improve the quality of life for medically NPO folks.

[–] zabadoh@ani.social 3 points 18 hours ago

Nice try, Wonka

[–] JakoJakoJako13@piefed.social 1 points 14 hours ago

Silk worm cotton candy. Infuse the silk with sugar and flavors. Roll it into a ball and shove a stick in it.

[–] bizarroland@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

sulfur hexafluoride poprocks.

There's a good chance they'll still pop and sizzle a little bit, but the gas they release will cause your voice to lower.

[–] davidgro@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

Candy that smells like the house I grew up in specifically. Totally possible, but guaranteed not to exist. (Especially because there would almost certainly be no market for it, even including me)

[–] paraplu@piefed.social 2 points 18 hours ago

This is based off a candy in a book, that I can't tell if has ever been made:

Under its tamarind glaze, luscious pepsin-flavored nougat, chock-full of tangy candied cubeb berries, and a chewy camphor-gum center.
