Turrón or not turrón?

It's hot outside so ice-cream is back on the cards. In Spain? Not tried turrón ice-cream? Sacrilege. Go out and buy a cone.

Here's one I sampled in Corella, Navarra.


For those of you reading from other parts of the world, if you're not sure what turrón is, then here's its wikipedia. Put simply, it's a sweet made from nuts that is popular at Christmas time. 
Some of you may find it a bit sticky and overpowering but don't give up just yet because as an ice-cream flavour, it's much lighter and less sickly. I will definitely miss it when I go back to the UK this summer.
