We all love ice cream as much as the next person, but right now our eyes are set on a new emerging trend in the food scene - Shaved Ice. (May also be called Shaved Snow or Snow Cream).
The most common kinds are Taiwanese and Korean ices.
When done right, the texture should be light, fluffy and almost dry if you will. You're not looking for anything dense and wet. (And no, it's nothing like a snow cone). More often than not, it's topped with a variety of unique toppings. It can be garnished with more familiar items like sprinkles, chocolate chips and salted caramel. Or you'll see some unique toppings like tapioca, mochi and sweetened condensed milk (my personal favorite).
Whichever combinations you choose, be sure to have fun with it! Check out these popular locations in New York.
