Day 15: Peanut Butter Square. This is such a great ice cream! Mild peanut butter base with butterscotch chips and marshmallows. And then this one is sandwiched between stroopwafels. Love it!

Day 14: Eggnog. A holiday favourite. Though I tend to be off and on about it because I don't like my drinks to be rich. I want my drinks to be somewhat light so I can recover from the rich food!

This works pretty well, though. The cream is wonderful, and it's not as spiced as the drink usually is.

Day 13: Banana cream pie. You might not think this would translate well to an ice cream flavour. You'd be wrong. It's a mild banana ice cream with graham bits mixed in. The creaminess of the ice cream keeps the banana from being overpowering.

Also, a bonus Luma.

Day 12: A little late to be posting this, but better late than not at all. Today's treat was a take on a Nanaimo bar! I usually find Nanaimo bars to be too rich, but this one was a perfect snack to end my day with. Not too sweet or anything!

Day 11: Bubblegum. A perennial kids favourite, I don't think I'm a big fan of this one anymore. Also it has small chunks of *something* that is giving it kind of a bitter aftertaste. Probably supposed to be gum chunks or something?

The ice cream itself, though, is great.

Day 10: Gingerbread man sandwich with vanilla ice cream. A very simple and pleasant dessert to finish off my supper with.

Day 9: Turtles turtles ra ra ra. Turtles turtles ha ha ha. I~ love~ Turtles~

I can't have them normally anymore because caramel does bad things to me, but in ice cream? Gimme!

Reminds me that I have a full litre of this in the freezer...

Day 8: Christmas sugar cookie dough. In a small cup like this, this is a perfect serving. I had a litre of it over the weekend, and it was actually kind of *too* sugary.

It's basically a cookie dough ice cream, with Christmas sprinkles and baking sugar sprinkled in. Good, but very sweet!

Day 7: The OG, vanilla. You can't go wrong with a smooth and creamy vanilla ice cream!

Day 6: Peppermint. This is the one cup that I know I'm not going to like in the set. I've never really enjoyed the taste and feel of mint. This one at least is mellowed out enough by the ice cream, though.

But that's just on me. I'm sure that people who don't react like I do to mint would love it.

Day 5: Strawberry. A subtle sweetness that works very well in a mix. It's pretty good alone, but I think it's better in a milkshake or blend.

Day 4: Hot chocolate with marshmallow. One of my favourite favours from Holmespun! It's very rich, though, so I shouldn't have too much of it at a time.

Day 3: The eternal classic, Cookies and Cream!

One of my favourite flavours, especially from Holmespun. They have such a wonderful creaminess to their ice cream, which works with the crunched up Oreos beautifully.

I should actually attach the picture.

They also have hot chocolate bombs, ice cream sandwiches done with both cookies and rice krispy squares (or similar), floats and hot chocolates, and sundaes. Lots of options for an ice cream fix, no matter the season!

Day 2: Biscoff cookie batter ice cream cookie.

One thing that's new this year is that, in addition to little cups of ice cream, there's also little treat-size versions of some of the other things Holmespun sells. When you go see them at their truck, there's more than just cones and litres!

Day 1: Malt chocolate base with crushed Whoopers.

I don't normally like malt chocolate. Something about the process makes it too... Rich? The texture and flavour is just a bit off for me. This, though, works very well. Maybe not as a full litre, but I'd get a scoop of it.
December 2, 2025 at 11:13 PM
I'm not completely happy with what I ended up with, but I am very happy with the process that got me here. And the result (for now) still looks pretty great to me! So that's a success in my book.

The last challenge was her legs. Did I want more mechanical? Did I want more natural? Did I want to try to use the adaptor parts so I could use the Calibarn lower legs? It was tough settling on something that I felt looked nice. Ultimately I went with painting a 30MS leg that fits better.
July 6, 2025 at 10:36 PM
After that was colouring. I was happy with the base white and black that I got from the 30MS parts, but after thinking about it more I wanted to have it represent not just the Calibarn, but also her uniform. Extra stickers from the Figurise, plus a very good quality gold paint marker, does a lot.
July 6, 2025 at 10:36 PM
Next, I was trying to decide how much mecha I wanted her to have. I wanted at least some, and I really wanted to represent the Permet Score somehow, but some of the combinations just didn't really work or would require more skill then I have.
July 6, 2025 at 10:36 PM
It's been a process to decide on what exactly I wanted it to be. I used some 30 Minute Sister parts to start with, but a bunch of the ones that would really work show more skin than I think Suletta would be comfortable with.
