Review

A silky-smooth custard base that sets the stage for nearly any flavor. With a simple ratio of egg yolks to cream, it churns into a luxurious scoop.

If you’ve ever wished your dessert could slap you in the face with buttery ambition, this is it.

Salted Caramel Delight takes no prisoners. Thick caramel ribbons swirl through a velvety base like a sugar-fueled jazz solo — wild, smooth, and perfectly chaotic. The sea salt is assertive, not shy, punching through sweetness like a linebacker in a boutique shop.

This is not your dainty tea-party scoop. This is for those who believe dessert should feel like a reward for surviving the day.
