The Top Vanilla Ice Cream For Affogato
BY KAT LIEU
Affogato is a classic Italian dessert that pairs espresso and gelato. The magic ratio is two scoops of gelato or ice cream and a double shot of espresso.
Talenti Gelato's Madagascan Vanilla Bean flavor is the perfect gelato, but if you favor ice cream, the best option for affogato is Jeni's Ice Cream in Honey Vanilla Bean.
The creaminess of Jeni's ice cream is ideal for espresso. A close contender to this is Häagen-Dazs Vanilla Bean, which has a velvety texture to balance the espresso.
Explore different ice cream flavors with affogato, like lavender, chocolate, or Oreo. Add a sprinkle of chocolate or caramel sauce for extra indulgence.
