A taste of Magnum

The Magnum Manila Pleasure Store at SM Aura, Premier was the first Magnum store in the Philippines. When the Magnum ice cream store was about to open, we were very excited to try it out. When it finally opened there were always long queue, and we were not patient enough to stand in queue.

Finally we were able to try it out. No long queues since it is a Sunday morning and the mall has just opened.

Upon entering the store, we were asked if we will order for dine in or not. There is a separate line for dine in customers and for the "make your own magnum".



Queue for dine in customers or for Magnum Café



Queue for "Make ur Own Magnum"

I was just able to try the "make ur own magnum", it costs P100.00 each, which comes with three (3) toppings of your choice.

The first step for the "Make Ur Own Magnum" is to choose for your three (3) toppings. There is a wide array of toppings to choose from, pistacchios, almonds, marsh mallows, rice crisps, dried mangoes, honeycomb, chocolate crunch, pretzels, oreo, and a lot more.
I chose pistacchios, oreo and marsh mallow.

 

The second step is to choose what flavor of your Magnum, you can choose from Vanilla, Chocolate and Chocolate-Caramel. I chose Vanilla.

The third step is to choose what dip flavor, the choices are: white chocolate, chocolate and dark chocolate. I chose chocolate for my dip for a good contrast of the vanilla magnum ice cream bar.

The fourth step is to choose the flavor of the drizzle, either chocolate or white chocolate. I chose white chocolate for my drizzle.

The fifth step is to top it with the chosen three (3) toppings and lastly, top it with the "M" chocolate coin, then its ready to eat.

Toppings: marsh mallow

For customers for the "make your own magnum", they can only stay on the couch provided behind the wall separating magnum café if you choose to stay inside the ice cream store.

The Magnum Café has a modern design and ambiance. Maybe next time I'm going to try their Savory menu at the Magnum Café.

You can eat your take - out Magnum ice cream on the couch inside and take photo ops with the famous "M" logo of Magnum, which is made of Magnum popsicle sticks. However, there is a note just below it that says, 'for your eyes only", I don't know what does it mean, does it mean that picture taking is not allowed or you cannot pull out the sticks. ;)

We enjoyed our Magnum experience at the Make your own Magnum store, we loved ice cream and what it made more special is the fun of making your own Magnum.
