Pre-ordered Merry Moo Artisanal Ice Cream – Dark Chocolate Coco Sugar

TAST­ING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

Choco­late ice cream is a clas­sic. Dark choco­late ice cream is an ele­gant rein­car­na­tion. Dark choco­late ice cream enriched by caramelized Cota­ba­to coconut sug­ar is an entire­ly new dessert cat­e­go­ry all on its own. Mer­ry Moo uses non-UHT dairy to main­tain the fresh­est pos­si­ble taste in all their ice cream. With fla­vors rang­ing from updat­ed clas­sics to nos­tal­gic and exper­i­men­tal and fun, they’ve ele­vat­ed the stan­dard of arti­sanal cream­eries in the Philippines.

PREPA­RA­TION OR PAIRINGS

The dark, caramel­ly notes of this fla­vor from Mer­ry Moo is a stand-alone delight. Try it with toast­ed wal­nuts for a hint of smok­i­ness and crunch to the fla­vor, or pair a cup with a sweet, shiny fresh cher­ry. If milk­shakes call to you, dare that extra scoop or two — and add a splash of whisky or rum for that R‑18 kick.

FROM A HOT DRINK TO FROZEN DELICIOUSNESS

It’s well-known that the cacao bean has a long his­to­ry, but it’s less com­mon knowl­edge that choco­late ice cream has been around for a long time too. Even longer than the more pop­u­lar clas­sic vanil­la. The first frozen choco­late recipe emerged in Naples, Italy in the late 1600s. Choco­late was a pop­u­lar hot drink in Europe at the time, and like cof­fee and tea, was often used to make desserts of the frozen and unfrozen variety.

Storage Instructions

Store ice cream in the main part of the freez­er. Do not store ice cream in the freez­er door, where ice cream can be sub­ject to more fluc­tu­at­ing tem­per­a­tures since the door is repeat­ed­ly open and shut. Keep the ice cream con­tain­er lid tight­ly closed when stor­ing in the freez­er to reduce the for­ma­tion of ice crystals.
