[title]The perfect ending to a meal is usually something sweet from a scoop of velvety ice cream to the buttery goodness of a proper piece of cake. These sweet treats aren’t just to end a meal obviously – have them for tea, mid-morning snack, on one of those countless visits to the kitchen or just because you feel like it.
Crème De La Crème (CDLC)
Artisanal small-batch ice cream is enjoying its time in the sun and once you’ve had a taste, it’s pretty hard to go back to the supermarket brands. CLDC specialises in ice cream and little cakes that are almost too pretty to eat. Interesting ice cream flavour combinations include blueberry sorbet with basil and cream cheese, coconut sorbet with homemade caramelised gula melaka coconut jam and more traditional ones like Musang King and dark chocolate. Flavours change so get in touch to see what’s available.
