Passionfruit and caramel go well together

I definitely wouldn't have guessed it. Last night we had dulce de leche granizado and mousse de maracuyá (passionfruit mousse) for dessert. The two flavours went really well together, which surprised me. I find dulce de leche nearly impossible to mix with anything but chocolate, and that combo packs waaaaay too much sugar to eat late at night when I have to work the next morning, but the passionfruit-caramel mix was pretty good. Syrupy. Anyways, we polished off a kilo between eight people. I wish I'd taken pictures of Michelle scraping the bottom of the tub.

I was surprised that our friends ate the meal, given that it was totally vegetarian (this being meat country...). The conversation went something like this:
"These burgers are good. Beef, right?"
"Nop."
"What's this then?"
"Beans."
"Qué?! No me jodas."

How long does it take to eat 26 kilos of ice cream?

The answer is about seven weeks. We foisted our ice cream on a fair number of people. We ate five tubs at the party and three as leftovers, gave one to Ana (partner in ice cream-related crime), one to Marcelo and two to Andy. In fact, there were few friends and colleagues who got away with not trying it.

I wish I had something more witty to say but I don't. Instead, pictures.

Top: mint chocolate chip and bitter chocolate. That particular container held 3.6 kilos of ice cream. We weighed it.
Middle: Sandra, Naty, Martín, Nadia, Fer, me. Busy at work finishing off all that ice cream.
Bottom: Ana working on the last container. It's hers now. I can't bear the thought of more menta granizada!!
