News From The Freezer

From your coffee cup…

…to an ice cream cone!

I found out today that Starbucks recently released new ice-cream versions of their most popular drinks. They had already done this before, but have phased the old flavors out and is releasing this new set with other novelties like ice cream bars.

  

I’m sort of an odd duck when it comes to coffee. I hate the drink and shun it like a vampire does holy water. But make ice cream with it, and I’m like a moth to a flame!

Aside from the fact that I have a weakness for the stuff, I’m mainly interested in the coffee-flavored cold confections because I imagine they would go well with my favorite Chocolate Cake recipe. If I had the chance and patience, I’d really like to turn any of these into an Ice Cream Bombe. It’s is a dome-shaped dessert that’s made of layers of cake and ice cream, frozen, then unmolded. Doesn’t it look heavenly?

And I’ve always wanted to make homemade ice-cream sandwiches with these molds that look like farmyard animals. Oink! I mean, yum!

Now to find those Starbucks frozen treats!

Have a sweet weekend, all. :)
