'Sourroundet' is pretty rich ... 'sour-rounded' could be used in fast food ads, like some Taco Hell thing plopped down in some sour cream, but the final devoicing gives it a special charm.

And the Grimm dictionary shows Oberfleisch (in a different meaning, of course), and Überfleisch gets some g-hits.
