Welcome to Day #17 of Chocolate and Fruits Theme Weeks.
Today's Chocolate Organic Ice Cream was made by Alec's Ice Cream (Petaluma, CA).
This chocolate ice cream was quite tasty, with a creamy melt and texture, and rich chocolate, cream caramel, and fleeting fudge-y earth, faint salt, nut and dark chocolate cookie aroma and flavor notes.
I tried this ice cream by itself--and with a banana split, with sliced banana and two other ice cream flavors (strawberry and passion fruit). It was good both ways; but I liked it best a la carte. A great, flavorful chocolate ice cream will not let you down.
