The holiday rush and new year festivities settles down giving way for another much-anticipated annual red-letter day. Love is in the air as Sebastian's Ice Cream reimagines love and the day of hearts in an indulgent scoop. And a lavish slice...
Sebastian's Ice Cream redirects its creative focus for another seasonal offering that's become an annual tradition for the tralblazing ice cream brand with the roll-out of the Valentine's Ice Cream Collection 2025. Showcasing the same unorthodox spirit and even sense of humor associated with the personality of the brand, Sebastian's Ice Cream's latest seasonal collection is targeted toward single people with suggestive names to reflect what they may be seeking this Valentine's. The names of the new collection may be the same as previous editions but the flavors are all new with just one exception plus a Limited Edition Ice Cream Cake too. Matinong Girlfriend, Matinong Boyfriend, Closure and Unresolved Issues, meet the Valentine's Ice Cream Collection 2025...
This year's Valentine's Ice Cream Collection 2025 presents a novel mix of decadent and even unexpected flavor expressions churned up in the innovative style of Sebastian's Ice Cream. Fresh bananas, strawberries, ginger and yes, bitter melon lead the newest collection by Sebastian's Ice Cream. The return of the bitter melon in the new Valentine's Ice Cream Collection 2025 with the wittingly named Unresolved Issues remains a Sebastian's Ice Cream tradition through the years (for more on the previous Valentine's Collection, see my post The Full Scoop: Presenting The 2024 Valentine's Collection by Sebastian's Ice Cream. And A New Flavor For Chinese New Year Too... from last year).
Making its mark in the local ice cream scene with its playfully inventive flavors like Once in a Blue Moon (a personal favorite with blue cheese and honey) and its inspired rendition of the Sapin-Sapin, Sebastian's Ice Cream is known for its creative and surprisingly unexpected flavors. Now it's time for a scoop and a pint of the new Valentine's Ice Cream Collection 2025 by Sebastian's Ice Cream...
The Matinong Girlfriend 2025 (P 160 per scoop/P 480 per pint) is all about bananas as Sebastian Ice Cream pulls all the stops with an unrestrained more-is-more and maximalist approach for an indulgent yet elegant natural sweetness. Imagine silky smooth banana ice cream made from fresh lacatan loaded with chunks of moist banana cake, crisp banana chips, fresh banana slices and finished with a banana jam ripple. That's bananas executed five different ways in one flavorful scoop. And just like that perfect girlfriend, this year's edition of the Matinong Girlfriend is a seamless weave of complex and nuanced layers coming together in a balanced finish.
The Matinong Boyfriend 2025 (P 175 per scoop/P 525 per pint) is a seductively smooth rendition of sophistication and delicately balanced flavors with its white wine ice cream base made with California white wine gently swirled with tart strawberry sorbet made with fresh strawberries from Benguet. The inspiration for this year's edition of Matinong Boyfriend comes from the classic pairing of fresh strawberries and white wine with its contrasting yet balanced notes. The fresh and vibrant burst of tartness is perfectly smoothened and complemented by the deep yet subtle sweetness of the white wine for one smooth ice cream creation by Sebastian's Ice Cream.
Sebastian's Ice Cream takes a slow, tranquil and laid-back look at Valentine's with its soothing Closure 2025 (P 160 per scoop), a smooth and chunkless tea-based ice cream made with black tea leaves and infused with the sharp yet comforting hints of fresh ginger and lemon sweetened with honey. And just like the picture-perfect ending and resolution we've been looking for, the Closure 2025 is warmly satisfying with its lingering richness for another feel good offering from Sebastian's Ice Cream. We all deserve closure, right? For a limited time only, find it in a scoop and a pint at Sebastian's Ice Cream.
Then, there's the Unresolved Issues 2025 (P 100 per scoop), an all-time bestseller which according to Sebastian's Ice Cream is "the flavor that will never die." Made with bitter melon and garnished with candied ampalaya, Unresolved Issues is one of those ice cream creations that shaped and defined the brand's unconventional approach to flavors. And year after year, Unresolved Issues remains a consistent favorite beyond Valentine's. The subtle bitterness of the ampalaya is perfectly tempered by the balanced sweetness of the velvety smooth sorbet that will have you going for another spoonful. Just like the bitter pill of failing to move on, the unique flavor is "forever unchanging, never progressing, never moving forward" locked in a state of Unresolved Issues. Need an intervention? Leave it to Sebastian's Ice Cream to finally settle the case with a scoop or pint of Unresolved Issues.
From scoops and pints, Sebastian's Ice Cream invites you to a slice of Valentine's with its Limited Edition Cookies n' Creme Ice Cream Cake (P 165 per slice/P 1,750 whole 9-inch cake). The first in a series of Limited Edition Ice Cream Cake flavors with many more planned in the pipeline, the Cookies n' Creme Ice Cream Cake for Valentine's is a stacked and elegantly layered slice of pure decadence with moist Black Cocoa Cake, OREO milk crumb and Cookies n' Creme Ice Cream topped with OREO cookies. Like it so far? Take a bite...
The Limited Edition Cookies n' Creme Ice Cake draws inspiration from a loyal client's custom-made order and has been a hit since. It formally makes its debut on the shelves as part of the Valentine's Ice Cream Collection 2025 at Sebastian's Ice Cream. In a perfect illustration where customer feedback not only provides key insights but potential creative product ideas, Sebastian's Ice Cream maximizes its interactions with its loyal base for collaborative outputs like this. And it works.
This year's Valentine's becomes another sweet affair, Unresolved Issues and status notwithstanding, at Sebastian's Ice Cream. Grab your scoop, pint and slice for another Valentine's to remember in that unconventional yet indulgent Sebastian's Ice Cream style...
