Food Inspiration

Ice cream in winter? - yes please!

Cooler months call for heartwarming desserts, and many are made all the much better when accompanied by your favourite ice-cream!

Apple Pie

• Always a classic with a buttery crust and the delicious apple filling enhanced by cinnamon and nutmeg spices. Top with a vanilla or caramel ice cream.

Sticky date pudding

• Rich and sweet with lashings of butterscotch sauce. A creamy ice-cream will help cut through the richness of the pudding.

Bread and butter pudding

• Choose a flavour that compliments the ingredients used. Strawberry ice-cream is perfect for a raspberry or blue berry pudding to highlight all the fruity flavours. Chocolate ice-cream is perfect for the classic style pudding made with sultanas and slivered almonds.

Chocolate brownies

• Easy to make and delicious with a rich chocolate or salted caramel ice-cream. Warm brownies first then top with ice-cream and serve immediately.

Cookie Ice Cream sandwiches

• First make your own cookies and enjoy a house filled with the smell of freshy baked cookies. Then use the leftovers as an easy dessert. Use cookie-dough flavoured ice-cream for a next level treat!

Affogato

• For those that like something a little bit different. Starts with a scoop of your favourite ice-cream in a glass. Then using an espresso or pod machine, pour one shot of hot espresso over the ice-cream. Sprinkle with chocolate powder before serving immediately. 

Winter is the perfect season to indulge in comforting desserts, especially when paired with your favorite ice cream. Whether you're enjoying a slice of warm apple pie, a rich sticky date pudding, or a sophisticated affogato, these combinations are sure to make your winter nights a little sweeter.
