LIke many others, I must admit I was most hesitant about the Dark Chocolate Velvet because I tend to indulge in sweeter milk chocolate. I must admit, however, how wrong I was! The ice cream is incredibly rich and smooth. It is also sweet (though not overpoweringly so) and tastes great both on its own and with a handful of nuts and a little whipped cream!

I would definitely recommend it!

My friend was chosen for this product review through chickadvisor.com and let me try it too. This dark chocolate ice cream is amazing. I am a huge chocolate fan and was very happy with this ice cream. It is rich and it captures the taste of dark chocolate well. It is a step up from the usual chocolate ice cream that I have had. I will definitely be buying this product in the future. I have already recommended this ice cream it to my friends.

This was the one flavour that I was a little more hesitant about. I'm not usually a huge fan of boring old chocolate ice cream and most of the time, pass on dark chocolate, but I was pleasently surprised with my frist bite. I found this ice cream to be very creamy and smooth, I excpected it to be incredibly rich, but found it to be not so bad, mind you I couldn't eat very much of it as it's incredibly heavy and filling. I think that this was my least favorite out of the three, but for all of you chocolate lovers out there, I would highly recomend it. :)

A big thanks to Chick Advisor for letting me try this!

So, this ice cream must be incredibly popular in my area because it took forever to find it in stock in any stores. But, it was definitely worth searching for. The chocolate flavor is great and isn't an overly sweet milk chocolate like many chocolate ice creams tend to be. The texture is different from many ice creams too, as it seems to be light and maybe even fluffy (if that is possible) I usually am not a fan of chocolate ice cream, but this stuff is pretty good (almost as good as real chocolate!) I would recommend trying it, but I'm not too sure if I would buy this flavour again at regular price ($6.99).

I get this HUGE package in the mail, I almost didn't want to open it because I didn't order anything lately. So when I open it, out comes this neat package from Breyer's....

It was so cute I HAD to take pictures, and I was dying to see what was inside this box. At first I was like "this can't be the ice cream in here, they must be crazy"....turns out that they gave me three bowls and spoons so I can share with friends and family...what a wicked idea

I'm not a fan of dark chocolate, but the Dark Chocolate Velvet was so nice and smooth (hence the word velvet, duh!). It's definitely not bitter like the regular dark chocolate bars so that was a plus right there.

The only problem is that I'm not sure if this icecream is worth the $6.99...it should be cheaper

First of all, I was very impressed with the package that arrived from Breyers. It was a really lovely gesture for them to send 3 little ice cream bowls and spoons.

Since I'm lacking in freezer space I decided to throw an ice cream party so my friends could help me test out the 3 ice cream flavours.

Hands down, this was the winner of the evening, which is probably no surprise. Everyone loved the dark chocolate flavour, including me, even though I prefer milk chocolate.

We all felt that $8 was a bit much for the tub of ice cream, and more than once people remarked "what's with the double churn thing?" It seemed to raise people's expectations for the quality of ice cream, and while it was quite creamy, it didn't seem all that different from other ice cream we've eaten.

I've always been a fan of Breyers ice Cream so when I had the chance to review this product, I couldn't have been happier!

Chocolate is one of my favourite ice cream flavours and this Dark Chocolate Velvet didn't disappoint! It was smooth, creamy, and very rich. Absolutely amazing. It is one of the best chocolate ice creams I've ever tried. Even if you don't like dark chocolate, you'll like this ice cream. I wouldn't say that it tastes like dark chocolate but, it is just a more intense chocolate taste than you normally get from chocolate ice cream. I would definitely recommend this if you're wanting to treat yourself or try something new.

The one and only thing I didn't like was that I found it melted a lot quicker than other ice creams. So that just means you need to eat it a little faster :)

The cheapest I saw this ice cream for was $6.99 and that was at No Frills, so unless this ice cream was on sale, i probably would only purchase it for special events or if I was having people over for dinner because it's on the pricey side but well worth treating yourself to every once in awhile.

I was blessed to be able to test this through the review club. Before I say anything about the actual product, I must say I loved the sharing kit. The packaging was very cute, and the bowls that came with are perfect size for me.

Now down to buissness. This ice cream was phenomenal!! It is officially my favourite ice cream, even over Ben & Jerry's Half Baked.

What I loved: I usually am more of a milk chocolate girl, so when I heard this was "Dark Velvet" I was a little hesitant. Yes it was dark and intense, but it was sooooo delicious! It was very creamy and the flavour just popped in my mouth.

What I didn't like: I personally found that the ice cream melted really fast. I know it's getting warmer, but the speed that it was melting seemed a little too fast.

All in all, like I said before, this ice cream is my new favourite. The price is a little on the high side somewhere between $7-$9 depending on where you get it, but honestly, it's well worth it. I've already told all my friends to get it, so ofcourse I would recommend it!

Of the 3 flavors that I tried (Banana Cream Pie, Chocolate Cheesecake and Dark Chocolate Velvet), this was my favourite!
It was smooth, rich, creamy & fluffy...and melts in your mouth.
I don't normally like dark chocolate but this was great!
My 5 year old loved it too!

This was probably the best of the Banana Cream Pie, Chocolate Cheesecake and Dark Chocolate Velvet. It melted in your mouth because the texture was so thick and creamy- an experience you dont get with most ice creams. I'm not generally a fan of dark chocolate, so dont let the name put you off- its not super sweet, but more so than I expected. This is one ice cream you cant afford not to try- everyone from my ten year old sister to my dad loved this ice cream, so as an occasional indulgence (due to the price) this is perfect
