Baltic Ice Cream - Senen, Jakarta

After enjoying the final of Walk For Autisme 2013 Jakarta photo competition where my sister join in and got selected as one of DSLR camera nominees in Heritage Bank Indonesia ‘Learning Center’ Building. We’re going to eat an ice cream, not just an ice cream that you can find everywhere. This ice cream store had open since 1939, we’re going to Baltic Ice Cream in Jl. Kramat Raya No. 10-12, Senen, Jakarta.

I'm pointing to my sister's pic

Uhh Indonesia even not independent that time. Really old ~ vintage ice cream brand.They’re selling in white plastic cup, stick and square bowl. No banana split, ice cake, etc, just a regular type of ice cream.

For regular cup there are lot of flavor, colorful with fruit picture on the lid. Also there’re few unique flavor that I never found in commercial ice cream, like nougat, rum raisin, and green tea. I notice there’s no different between cup regular and cup special, net 75ml, same cup maybe they’re name it because the new flavor.

For sticks, there’s a Dutch sentence "Hygienis en Heerlijk van Smaak..." meaning "Hygiene and Delicious Taste of..." I guess there’s an impact when you build a shop with colonialisme effect hehehe.. In packaging there’re Tutti Frutti, Lolly Frutt and basic flavor. So many flavor but I only eat chocolate, kopyor and red bean. All of them have really good taste, rich and nice.

For take away, they’re providing good box packaging contain styrofoam and dry ice to sure you that the ice won’t melting in your car. For your information, Baltic ice cream did not distribute their product to other market like famous brand did.

For dine in, they only provide few chairs and big mirror, it’s not a large ice cream cafe that you can find at mall. The view is traffic and flyover of Kramat Raya street hehehe..
