Question of the Day

On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being not in the slightest, 10 being as good as it gets, how posh is a Viennetta?

I'm going for a 7. Arctic Roll would be a 2 or 3.

I would say 8 - arguably one of the posher ice cream desserts but not necessarily made from posh ice cream.

Does the flavour affect poshness rating? - Personally I think the white vienetta is 0.5 posh points higher than mint...

Just about scrapes a 2.

I was thinking more about the concept, a gateau made of ice cream and alternated chocolate flavour layers, as described by the creators, but so long as you can back up why you would award higher marks to a particular flavour, then that's fine by me.

Arctic Roll 2 Viennetta 3

Lowly Viennetta scrape through this round with an unconvincing win at the non-league Arctics.

Poshness is a very relevant consideration here as Viennetta is reportedly Victoria Beckham's first choice pud to serve up to sophisticated (? ? ? ?) dinner guests.

As the woman is a leading figure in vulgar bad taste I regret that I cannot award even 1 point.

Arctic roll 1, Viennetta 2 (although as a child both seemed the height of sophistication).

What are you comparing the handsome Viennetta to, to judge its poshness? I'm looking at other ice cream based pre-made desserts.

Sorry, I thought it was all desserts.

It was originally, but i didn't like the low marks it seemed to be getting :-#
