REVIEW: High Road Mr. Butterpants (Private Reserve Big Kid Series)


Despite the expensive price tag of High Road's ice cream, we couldn't resist picking up a pint from their Big Kid Series titled Mr. Butterpants. This whimsically titled creation takes dark chocolate chunks & lots of peanut butter in chocolate ice cream and comes in at a hefty 280 calories per serving.


Once the Private Reserve top was tossed aside and we took a look at the thick glob of peanut butter sitting right on top, we were hopeful this would be worth the price and calories. While the chocolate base wasn't anything out of the ordinary, any bite including the ribbons of peanut butter or a dark chocolate chunks were certainly above average.


Unfortunately for Mr. Butterpants, the chocolate and peanut butter combination category is perhaps the most competitive we have and this one couldn't quite make the cut; especially with flavors like Ben & Jerry's Peanut Butter World and Haagen Dazs Peanut Butter Pie still on shelves.
