The real talk

This is dessert showing off. Take ice cream, which is already sugar and cream, then coat it and dunk it in hot oil so it picks up another layer of fat and crunch. The frying alone adds serious calories on top of the ice cream inside. That is how a single ball lands at around 360.

Honestly it is delicious and a fun thing to order once in a blue moon. Just do not kid yourself, this is the heaviest dessert in the lineup at 18g of fat a piece. Bro one of these is basically half a burger in dessert form. Share it, or have one and skip the second drink.

Common questions

Is fried ice cream the worst dessert calorie-wise?
It is up there. At around 360 calories with 18g of fat per piece, it combines the sugar of ice cream with the oil of deep frying. One of the heaviest on the dessert menu.
Why is ais krim goreng so high in fat?
Because you are deep frying cream. The ice cream already has fat, then the batter soaks up oil during frying, stacking it to around 18g per piece.
Can I fit fried ice cream into a diet?
Occasionally, yes, if you budget for it like a small meal. Sharing one piece is the easiest way to enjoy it without the full 360 calorie hit.
