Ice Cream Worth Travelling For

The temperature has finally dropped but last Sunday, with the over 100 degree heat, we made a mad dash for Yarra Valley Ice Cream shop after our visit to Healesville. It was hard to choose a flavor, but I decided to try something different and went for the passion fruit ice cream. It was divine, a mixture of creamy dairy with tart and sweet flavors as well. They sell their ice cream in small batches to a few stores in Melbourne. I noticed that the local gourmet grocery store close to my hotel sells it. The price was also unbelievable. For a small Chinese takeout box (less than a pint) I believe the ice cream was over $10 Australian dollars. I will have to be happy with the memory of my passion fruit cone.
