Celebrating New Year 2022 couldn't get better than this with arrays of sweet indulgence of luxurious shakes; topped with every imaginable treat. Make a wish, so your sweet dream came true.
I blended up Billy Bonka, a concoction of Oreo, Snickers, peanut butter and chocolate. The picture is on the front cover of this book. It's the middle one; with 2 layer toppings of mini waffles, with Oreos, pretzels, whipped cream and Reese pieces (I used Hershey's).
These calories laden milkshakes, had taken the foodie culture by the storm since a decade back. Here, proprietors of the Vogue Cafe in northern Sydney had shared 40 variations of their famous crazy sips for us to try. The cafe had closed since April 2021, but we still have this book, 1st published in 2016 as consolations.
Basically it divided into 4 parts;
1) Fruity Mania - I would love to try Pash Me. It's a non dairy, white peach and passion fruit quencher based concoction. It used frozen berries as pearls. Perfect for the weekend.
2) Chocolate Mania - All sort of choc based. A chocolate wild dreams came true. Lot of shakes belong here. Including Billy Bonka that I concocted yesterday.
3) Super Sweet - It used different types of sweetener like maple syrup, honey, fruit syrup and using various types of candies as flavour based. Honestly, to get the exact candy required could posed problem to some. For me, I will use the substitute version for the topping if it's difficult to find. Who cares?
Probably one day I will have Maybe It's Maple. A pecan, caramel and maple syrup flavour. A wishful thinking. The topping is a too complicated idea for me with rose buds, fairy floss and all. Remain my fantasy perhaps.
4) Crazy Cool - The richest one belong here including the Infamous Nutella Milkshake. Oh my! I wonder how many exercises, walking I had to do to use up those calories' intake. Save this one for once a year affair.
Instructions to prepare the glass and ratio for dairy substitution are written on earlier part as references. I made the chocolate rim on 31st Dec and kept it in the fridge. On New Year's day; I just had to concoct shake and decorate it. Easier.
Pick this book if you planned for a gathering, party, celebration. This kind of dessert is a perfect medium to be enjoyed over conversation. Just prepare the glasses and shakes. Let your guests assemble their own favourite topping. Kids will love to lay their hands decorating according to their fancy. Bonding session perhaps?

March 8, 2018My husband and I love to go to old-fashioned 1950s diners and indulge in a decadent shake. Rich chocolate, occasionally with peanut butter or Oreos thrown in, have delighted our taste buds many a warm, lazy afternoon.
But we had no idea that these simple indulgences could be even more decadent than our wildest dreams! Just reading the table of contents for Decadent Shakes: Milkshakes with More left me drooling and ready to try out one or two — diet be damned! As the back cover promises, “These treat-laden milkshakes, dripping in excess chocolate and sweets, evoke a sense of delicious indulgence.”
