To enjoy, remove the ice cream cake from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a short period to soften slightly. This makes it easier to slice and serve. Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean cuts. Serve immediately after slicing. It can be enjoyed on its own or with additional toppings like whipped cream or chocolate sauce.
How it differs from similar foods
