Summary

Create amazingly decadent ice cream-based desserts in your own kitchen with the almost 100 simple recipes in this ode to ice cream. Whether hand-held, sipped through a straw or beautifully arranged on a dish, all the classic favourites are here, such as Classic French Vanilla, along with delicious new concoctions, like Luchetti's interpretation of a French marjolaine: almond meringue alternating with layers of Mexican Chocolate Ice Cream. Included are recipes for toppings, sauces and garnishes, and tips on ice cream makers, serving and storing.
