Hi all. Not sure if this is in WA only. Good discount off (70%) but expensive ice cream to start off with. Apparently it’s made with free-range egg yolks and particularly creamy.
Enjoy!

bought a few of these over the last week for $3
very nice ice cream almost like frozen custard
its not very sweet so if you like that you'll love these
how is it different to normal bulla vanilla ice cream, i saw it for $4 at my local woolies.
Was considering it but then underneath was 2L bulla for $5its richer more premium i guess, not as icy as normal ice cream
very thick kinda ice cream
but in terms of anything special you can get Haagen Dasz for $4 in vanilla this week at woolworths which i think is a nicer vanilla
again its not very sweet at all its very reliant on the vanilla bean for its flavour
i see, so its more authentic vanilla ice cream as in more vanilla bean used rather than more milk and sugar
@[Deactivated]: its got more egg yolks used in it compared to milk
and yes you can see the vanilla beans inside the ice cream
so yeah its probably a more traditional type of ice cream, one you'd probably expect from one of those ice cream parlours you see around
@Bargainlife: of all my life i've been eating ice cream i actually never realise that the vanilla flavour of the ice cream i have been eating is not entirely from vanill
@[Deactivated]: well no it probably is but there are different types of vanilla used in cooking and food
Vanilla flavour - the lowest of the scale
Vanilla essence - used in cakes and such
vanilla bean paste / oil - pretty good quality
Vanilla beans - the actual product from the plant, you run a knife down them and split them and scrap the vanilla out of the pod@Bargainlife: A lot of industrials use the vanilla beans to make paste or essence, and then put the "old" beans into the product to make you feel you're getting real vanilla.
@gonan: yeah i was pretty sure that's how they make vanilla essence basically, they boil the outer skins and then reduce that
i am sure there are plenty of tricks they use in industry
@Bargainlife: Don't forget vanilla extract inbetween essence and paste, good quality extracts are made with just alcohol and vanilla beans.
I remember seeing a documentary about ice-cream. Because they use volume to measure, the cheaper ice creams are pumped with air. Makes it light and fluffy which is what people like but also increases the volume. So a 1L ice-cream might have more ingredients than a 2L that's been aerated.
Interesting. Little off topic, but sounds like in the UK where they inject chicken breasts with water to increase weight.
It has been $3 for weeks. It is OK but not that great.
Calling it Murray Street is not particularly appetising for people from Perth. When I think Murray Street I think of the smell of a vagrants urine.
Ha! That’s not a good coincidence for a premium product.
Murray Street is actually a reference to the Main Street of Colac where the Bulla factory is.
This was never priced at $10 per tub at my local… was always marked as "$5(normally $10 but save 50%)" and has been down to $3 for a a few weeks.
Hate when shops inflate the price just to give a "discount"
This icecream is unusual, I grabbed one on clearance at $5 a few weeks back to try. It's extremely thick, I almost had to chew it! Lacking in vanilla and sweetness though. I wonder if this batch that they are clearing out was a run with some ingredients lacking, or if it just sucks. Would have been lovely with a bit more sweetener and flavour!
Sounds like they got the milk from a bull.
is it hard to scoop also?
Nope it scooped fine for us!
It went from $10 to $5 now $3.
Must be very few people buying.
$10 for less than half a liter, how do you expect it to sell?
How about giving us the 40ml and make it 500ml. Whats with some produts like ice cream where they do this 460ml 490ml 475ml what a joke just make it 500ml and charge the 5cents more.My bleat for the new year.
Because 473mL = 1 Pint
So why 460ml
I asked a similar question to a store rep on here selling coffee beans previously. Turns out it was so that the beans post into a certain freight cost bracket.
I know its less likely in the case of big business but it could be the case. Either that or packaging oriented
I found it thick and creamy but quite bland. The Vanilla note just wasn't there so they may have screwed up a production run.
Bought some last week. I thought it was awesome. Purchased another 4
It's good with chocolate sauce on top. Has a weird after taste on it's own.
Strongly recommend! Actual icecream - not ice confection - that goes well with pies (Christmas pies also on special….)!
Also seen for $3 in QLD.
$10 RRP is way too high for this 460ml tub ice cream which still contain additives such as thickeners, inulin, natural colouring, etc.
Häagen-dazs (457ml tub) ingredient are more natural without any thickeners.For example:
Here is Bulla Murray St. ingredient:
Fresh Milk, Fresh Cream (31%), Glucose, Sugar, Milk Solids, Egg Yolk, Thickeners (1442, Locust Bean Gum, Guar Gum, Tapioca Starch, Carrageenan, Xanthan Gum), Vanilla Bean Extract & Seeds (1%), Inulin, Caramelised Sugar, Natural Flavour, Natural Colour (Lutein), Contains on average 13.5% Milk Fat in Ice CreamAnd here is Häagen-dazs (vanilla) ingredient:
Fresh Cream (39%), Condensed Skimmed Milk, Sugar, Egg Yolk, Vanilla Extract, Ice Cream contains 16% Milk FatI guess they want to position this sub-brand as Häagen-dazs competitor, but forget to realise that consumer nowadays are smarter.
I bought this for $3 but I'm not really a big fan of the taste.
could that be why it's $3?
Thought it said Bill Murray ice cream \o/
same
$2.50 now.
is available in NSW too. i tried it the other day it was super creamy and nice! im converted.
