Wuyang is the most well-known ice cream brand in Guangdong, and the name itself has a strong "Guangzhou color". Wuyang ice cream has accompanied generations of Cantonese people to grow up, and has long become an important business card of Cantonese culture, so much so that in 2010, when the old site of "Wuyang brand ice cream" was demolished, it caused a boom, and Guangdong consumers lamented that the classic flavor was no longer there.
In fact, Wuyang brand was acquired by Nestlé in 1999, and in 2008, the ice cream production has been relocated to a new site in Huangpu District. Nowadays, you can not only see classic products such as classic flavor cones, flying fish ice cream, and "lotus cups" on the market, but also new products such as Cantonese dessert flavor cones and red bean chestnut ice cream have also emerged, which are favored by consumers.
Ice cream cones first appeared in the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, the original cone was simply served in a cone, and now the cone has developed into a rich variety of varieties, in the industrial cone, the most common is to spread chocolate and peanuts and other nut crumbles on the surface, and at the same time, there is a large piece of chocolate at the bottom of the cone to make up for the vacancy of the ice cream at the bottom. However, because Wuyang's chocolate uses cocoa butter substitute, and cuteness uses cocoa butter, the melting point of cocoa butter is higher than that of cocoa butter, and the Wuyang cone still maintains a lumpy solid form when eating chocolate, and the chocolate in Cute Duo begins to melt after entering the mouth, and friends who enjoy the blended taste of chocolate, ice cream and cones prefer cute.
Although the taste is far less rich than Nestle and Luxue, it does not affect the irreplaceable position of Wuyang cone in the hearts of Cantonese people, even in the face of the cuteness known for its solid ingredients, the surface is covered with crushed peanuts and chocolate coating, and the chocolate coating even spreads to the outer layer of crispy and delicious egg cones, with soft and smooth ice cream, which is very attractive. In terms of flavors, each of the tapo, chocolate, cantaloupe, lychee, pineapple, durian, etc. has its own loyal fans, and if you try it for the first time, we recommend the taro flavor, which has a sweeter taste. The Cantonese dessert flavor cone, which is inspired by traditional Cantonese desserts such as poplar manna and double skin milk, is also worth a try with real ingredients such as cashew nuts and mango grains to enhance the flavor.
Wuyang brand ice cream came out in the 60s of the 20th century, when ice cream was popular in private ice rooms, but the cost was higher, the price was as high as 1.5 yuan a piece, and the emergence of Wuyang ice cream allowed more low-income classes to enjoy this delicious, retail is only three triangles and four points, very competitive, so far Wuyang ice cream is still maintained at a low level, the average price is about 3 yuan, most convenience stores, grocery stores in Guangdong Province are sold, but unfortunately it has not radiated to the whole country, and there is no online sales channel.
