A musical genre in the foundling stage, the term deriving from a popular dairy food item. The genre's sound is best described as 'daring and flavourful,' and features many inventive forms of instrumentation.
The movement is starting to make waves primarily due to the work of Canadian musical collective Tiger Tiger, whose line-up includes the very best paper-crumpler performing today.
music fan one: MAN! What is this sound I am hearing? It is like a little taste of heaven, issuing from that speaker!
music fan two: It is my new favourite band, Tiger Tiger, pioneers of the ICE CREAM CORE genre. I bought their album, and so should you!

A commitment to deliver (a service, funding, an item) that is subsequently set aside. The broken promise is then explained with the glib expression "oh, but that promise was non-core".
Now generalised to non-political situations, too.
Origin: Australian federal elections at the turn of the 20th/21st centuries. The conservative party (known as the Liberal/National coalition) made a number of election promises which were broken soon after the election. The prime minister, John Howard, attempted to explain this behaviour by claiming that some promises are "core" and some are "non-core" and thus, don't count.
Not only did "No tax increases, no new taxes" turn out to be a non-core promise, but in the campaign, Howard had also given a solemn undertaking that "I'm not going to break any promises". That one was certainly non-core.
