Red Velvet Cheesecake Ice Cream
We started with my cream cheese ice cream base, which already delivers that rich, cheesecake-style indulgence. Then we layered in a keto red velvet thin sponge cake, designed specifically for ice cream — soft, tender, and deeply chocolatey with just enough tang to balance the creaminess.

Lemon Cheesecake Ice Cream
This lemon cheesecake ice cream was inspired by our trip to Italy, where we spent time along the Amalfi Coast and tasted some of the most unforgettable gelato of our lives. If you’ve ever been there, you know exactly what I mean: those famous Amalfi lemons are intensely fragrant, bright, and nothing like the lemons we’re used to back home.

Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream
There’s something magical about blueberry cheesecake. The tart pop of blueberries, the silky cream cheese, the nostalgic “New York cheesecake” flavor… it all just works.

Rocky Road Chocolate Ice Cream
There are few things more comforting than a scoop of Rocky Road ice cream — that mix of rich chocolate, crunchy almonds, and pillowy marshmallows just hits the spot.
