- Scooped into cones
This ice cream is best enjoyed straight from the freezer. Allow it to soften slightly for a few minutes before scooping for the best texture. It pairs wonderfully with warm baked goods like apple pie or brownies, providing a cool contrast. It can also be blended with milk and other ingredients to create rich and creamy milkshakes. For a simple treat, serve it in a bowl or a cone, perhaps with a drizzle of sauce or some sprinkles.

Its subtle flavor profile allows other ingredients to shine, making it a perfect base for sundaes or a complementary element to more complex desserts. It is less about a dominant taste and more about a smooth, creamy foundation.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the container tightly and return it to the freezer immediately. Store it in the coldest part of your freezer to maintain its optimal texture and prevent freezer burn. Keeping it well-sealed will also help preserve its fresh flavor.
