Raspado

My weekend trip to Manizales & the Glacier National Park of Colombia was quite the adventure (caseythomastravels.blogspot.com), but here are a couple of pictures of gastronomical adventures from the trip.


Saturday afternoon, lunch: chocolate cake, split between the 5 of us, accompanied by a lovely cappuccino. Sometimes it is good to be bad.


This was the real adventure: raspado. Basicaly, a snowball with condensed milk mixed in. We made it ourselves, at the glacier in the Parque Nacional Natural de los Nevados. Snow was untouched when we arrived, so people decided to make "homemade ice cream", as well as make snow angels, snowballs, slide down the snow with no clothes on, etc. Wasn't actually that good though, snow + condensed milk... I will take gelatto or frozen yogurt or whatever we call ice cream back home over this stuff any day!
