(SPOT.ph) Every February, we can expect Sebastian's Ice Cream to deliver with its Valentine Collection. Sure, consistency is nice, but how about some surprises? The return of the Valentine Collection also introduces two new products to try out—talk about a sweet (slash bittersweet) way to celebrate the season of hearts, whatever your status.

There's a Sebastian's Ice Cream flavor for everyone this Valentine's season:
No matter your relationship status, Sebastian's Ice Cream favorites Matinong Boyfriend, Matinong Girlfriend, Closure, and Unresolved Issues are here for you. Quick primer: the homegrown ice cream brand brings the line back every year with the same names (slash themes), but with varying flavors for the first three.
This year's Matinong Boyfriend (P435/pint) is an orange ice cream with candied orange peel and orange butter almond cake. Loaded with Vitamin C, this pick is bound to give you the same level of happiness a significant other has to offer. Ideally.
Meanwhile, the 2023 Matinong Girlfriend (P435) is a dark beer caramel ice cream with beer caramel ripple and beer peanut brittle. Do take note of her substance, depth, and complexity. You know what happens when you take someone for granted, after all.
The 2023 version of Closure (P405) is a Chrysanthemum tea ice cream made with Chinese dried flower tea blossoms that are meant to soothe the palate and the spirit. Which might just be as close as most of us can come to, well, actual closure. We'll take it.
Unresolved Issues (P305) is…well, still unresolved issues. It’s the same ampalaya sorbet with candied ampalaya bits like always. The flavor is sweet, but the bitterness is just as palpable. As Sebastian Ice Cream puts it, this pick is “never changing, never growing, never moving forward.” #Felt.

There's more where that came from, though. For the first time ever, Sebastian Ice Cream is expanding its Valentine’s collection beyond those who are yearning for love or recovering from it: "In the interest of true equality, we present Valentine delights for the ones blissfully in love!”
Strawberry Kisses are bite-sized strawberry ice cream poppits dipped in milk chocolate and drizzled with white chocolate for P260.
If you think poppits are too small, help yourself to the Chocolate Strawberry Cake with chocolate chips, strawberry compote, and chocolate shavings for P155 a slice and P1,650 for a whole serving. Now everyone is accounted for!
Sebastian Ice Cream’s is at 5/F at The Podium, 12 ADB Ave, Ortigas Center, Mandaluyong City. For delivery orders, visit their website. You can also check out their Facebook page.
