The Freakshake: Bringing ALL the boys and girls to the yard

Katie Mythen-Lynch

It’s rare that (PMS aside) we would seriously consider purchasing a €5,000 plane ticket just to sample a dessert, but a new Australian bakery has us giving a round trip to Oz some serious thought.

Pâtissez bakery in Canberra has invented a milkshake guaranteed to bring ALL the boys (and girls) to the yard. And, as this picture clearly demonstrates, these people do not fool around.

Sweet-toothed visitors form an orderly queue outside the shop, which only opened two months ago, daily to sample The Freakshow, an ice-cream, sugar and cake-laden festival of calories that has been selling out.

Flavours include The Muddy Pât: “A warm fudge hot shake using house made dark chocolate fudge – topped with vanilla bean whipped cream, carrying a super fudgy choc brownie – crowned with a toasted house-made marshmallow,” Other concoctions feature spoon-loads of Nutella, salty pretzels, double cream and warm caramel topped with pecan pie

We’re waiting on an Irish visionary to bring the Freakshake to Ireland. In the immortal words of Kelis, the boys are waiting.
