\"Baskin<\/p>\n

I\u2019m a \u201ckar-muhl\u201d guy when pronouncing caramel. <\/p>\n

Apparently, my wife is firmly in the surprisingly passionate team \u201ckar-a-mel\u201d camp as I discovered when I informed her she was saying it wrong.<\/p>\n

My logic? Function over form.<\/p>\n

The faster I can say caramel, the faster I can shovel delicious treats like Baskin-Robbins’ March Flavor of the Month Oreo \u2019N Caramel Ice Cream into my mouth. When the promise of salted caramel ice cream, Oreo cookie pieces, and a caramel swirl is made, I\u2019m not about to waste any time.<\/p>\n

\"Baskin<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a good thing too because this treat delivers. If I were to nitpick the description, I\u2019d say this is a sometimes overly sweet caramel first, Oreo cookies and cream second flavor. I get vibes more of dulce de leche than what I typically associate with caramel which makes sense given the sweetened condensed milk used as a base. If Baskin-Robbins had gone with that title rather than caramel, I may have been spared the back pain of my futon banishment.<\/p>\n

Speaking of being salty, the salted caramel element is added with a deft hand that enhances the sweetness of both the caramel and Oreo creme flavors. Practically every bite is a surprisingly complex dance between the two. <\/p>\n

\"Baskin<\/p>\n

Some bites, the sweet Oreo creme leads and ends with a bit of salty caramel while other times an incredibly sweet caramel flavor trails off with a deeper chocolate wafer finish. The cookies themselves are possessed of a pleasantly soft texture in sizes that range from pervasive bits to a tad too infrequent chocolate chunks.<\/p>\n

Baskin-Robbins captured something I have not tasted often with Oreo ‘N Caramel Ice Cream. There are certainly bites that are sweeter than I like, but overall, it\u2019s a delectable change of pace from the \u201cmintundation\u201d that March usually heralds. <\/p>\n
