"Sterling Munksgard/Shutterstock Known as the "Ace of Cakes," TV personality and renowned pastry chef Duff Goldman certainly knows a thing or two about sweets. Always willing to share tips ranging from the best oil to use when thinning out melted chocolate or how to transform store-bought pastry into festive Halloween treats, Goldman's bread and butter, so to speak, is definitely desserts. Although most popular for his baked goods, you might be surprised to find that his favorite dessert is actually ice cream."
"In an interview with Eating Well, Goldman revealed that his favorite thing about ice cream is its versatility in flavor and texture. "There's an endless variety of ice cream. There's so much you can do with it, there's so many different kinds. Cold, smooth, creamy and sweet - it just doesn't get better than ice cream," he proclaimed. As for his favorite ice cream, Goldman said it typically depends on his mood."
"For example, in 2011, Goldman partnered with famed ice cream maker, Blue Bunny, to create a line of cake-flavored ice creams, including such varieties as triple chocolate cake, red velvet cake, and more. Considering how many delightful cake and ice cream pairings there are, you can easily gather new inspiration for your own desserts, whether store-bought or homemade. When it comes to crafting satisfying confections, consider what you love most."
Ice cream is valued for its versatility in flavor and texture, offering cold, smooth, creamy, and sweet combinations. Chocolate-based varieties and those with mix-ins like rocky road and crunchy elements are popular choices. Combining cake flavors with ice cream creates appealing pairings, exemplified by commercially produced cake-flavored lines such as triple chocolate cake and red velvet cake. Experimenting with new flavors, mashups like crushed cones atop bowls, and personalized additions enhance desserts and inspire creative homemade or store-bought creations. Versatility allows endless combinations of texture and taste. Seasonal or mood-driven choices influence flavor selection and encourage playful preparations.
