One Ingredient
Three Ways
Featuring Devon Ice Cream Co.
Serve up a scoopful of joy this summer with our three ways to reimagine everyone’s favourite frozen treat…
That first delicious taste of ice cream under the summer sun is tough tobeat. The cold, creamy sweetness of a dripping raspberry ripple cone on a UK beach, or a
perfectly-stacked pistachio creation makes most taste buds do a happy dance like almost nothing else. There’s a glorious mix of nostalgia and delight with every lick. And, for many customers, both young and old, a cleverly put-together ice cream dish will very often outshine a far fancier pudding, making it an excellent addition to menus all year round.
Ice cream is also a fantastic cornerstone for many desserts when combined with other textures and flavours, and is easily elevated from simple to impressive. Chef Phil Clark, says: “Ice cream is the ultimate summer comfort food. From fabulous ice cream sundaes to the perfect creamy milkshake, it’s the treat that never gets old. And with the huge range of flavours and toppings available – your only limit is your imagination.”
Read on for three ideas to spin this universally-loved ingredient into three dishes that will delight customers this summer.
STRAWBERRY & RASPBERRY MILKSHAKE
A nod to classic summer flavours, we’ve combined Strawberry ice cream (plant-based options available) with DaVinci’s tangy Raspberry Drizzle to create a simple yet effective treat to instantly elevate drinks menus. Topped with a swirl of squirty cream and garnished with fresh berries, it’s the perfect balance of creamy and fruity.
LOTUS BISCOFF WAFFLE SANDWICH
This show-stopping dish is a dessert menu game-changer that’s all about mixing texture and temperature. A velvety cold scoop of Lotus Biscoff ice cream is sandwiched between two warm, toasty waffles.
We’ve elevated it further with a squirt of cream, a healthy sprinkle of crumbly Lotus Biscoff and finally a drizzle of rich homemade caramel sauce to finish. It’s a tasty dessert that marries comfort with showmanship, which is sure to
leave a lasting impression.
ICE CREAM & MARSHMALLOW SUNDAE
There’s nothing like an ice cream sundae to crank up the indulgence factor, plus it has the added bonus of tapping into the nostalgia trend that’s
dominating 2024.
Mixing the cool freshness of MintChoc Chip with the sweet, novelty touch of Marshmallow
Mudslide ice cream, our super sundae is layered with homemade chocolate sauce and sprinkled with crushed meringue and flaked almonds. Easy to prepare and visually appealing for sharing online, this twist on a classic sundae will be an instant hit.
