Sweet Celebrations in Bulimba
Bennie Adam Ice Cream Bulimba: First Birthday Celebrations and Bombe Alaska
Bennie Adam Ice Cream delivers a memorable celebration dessert with its torched Bombe Alaska, cleverly pairing rich chocolate ice cream with a bright raspberry sorbet core.
Placing a fresh slice of torched Bombe Alaska onto a gold-trimmed vintage plate sets an inviting tone for a sweet birthday celebration. Slicing through the golden meringue reveals a remarkably tidy cross-section: rich dark chocolate ice cream wrapping around a bright pink raspberry sorbet core, all resting on a crunchy strudel and chocolate cake base.
We dropped into Bennie Adam Ice Cream at 158D Oxford St in Bulimba as the local scoop shop marked its first anniversary. A bold statement painted on the wall declares that 'if it's not Bennie Adam it's not worth it', setting a confident, cheerful backdrop for a shop dedicated to craft frozen treats.

Constructing the Torched Bombe Alaska
What makes this Bombe Alaska work so well is how deliberately each layer plays its part. The foundation begins with a chocolate cake base coupled with a crisp strudel element. Deep chocolate ice cream encases a fresh, tart raspberry sorbet centre that cuts neatly through the creaminess before reaching the fluffy, torched Italian meringue swirls on top.
Whether presented as a spiral-patterned cake resting on a pink tabletop or brought outdoors against leafy garden backdrops, it brings a sense of showmanship that turns a birthday treat into an event. The balance between cold tangy sorbet, smooth chocolate ice cream, and crisp strudel ensures every bite stays interesting.
