Brace yourselves for a bout of nostalgia. Sunday Folks has just turned your favourite White Rabbit sweet into a soft serve ice cream.
The highly requested flavour from their Shanghai pop-up has arrived in Holland Village and I went down for a much-awaited taste test.
Dubbed The Little White Rabbit, Sunday Folks’ spin on the classic sweet consists of a milk-flavoured ice cream laced with a milk-caramel sauce, milk mochi and of course a sheet of glutinous rice paper that we love so much.
There is no greater excitement when you hear your favourite childhood candy morphing into an ice cream. Being an ice-cream purist, I opted for the cone version (S$9) of this sweet treat.
The soft serve was milky and fresh. Much like Sunday Folks’ trademark ice cream, there was a sweet, syrupy gelato-like quality which I liked.
The combination of the milk caramel was a tad too sugary for me, coming from a person who has a huge sweet tooth. The milk mochi cubes added an interesting texture but overall nothing groundbreaking.
Just like our beloved White Rabbit sweet, the glutinous rice paper was the most exciting part of the cone. Evoking my inner child as I gleefully tore away at the paper dipping it with my ice cream. The result: a kind of deconstructed White Rabbit sweet, if you will.
All in all, a pretty delectable dessert complete with sentimental feelings of one’s childhood.
Sunday Folks has kept mum about how long The Little White Rabbit will be hopping about, but as far as we know it will only be available for a limited time.
So if you want to reminisce the days of sticky fingers from gingerly peeling the ‘paper’ off the milky treat, head down to Sunday Folks before this soft serve hops away.
