Pike's Place Coffee Ice Cream



This is actually the second time I tried making coffee ice cream. The first time I created a "Crunchy" version using coffee grounds in the ice cream mixture. This time I used a different recipe which required the whole coffee beans to steep in the warm ice cream mixture for 1 hour. This one turned out great it had a very deep coffee taste without leaving coffee grinds stuck in you teeth!!

  1. Bao,

    The Pike's Place Coffee ice cream tasted very good. Susan and I both agree that it could be too good, in that you could eat the whole pint in one sitting. My improvement suggestion would be that the color of the coffee ice cream was too light. I think consumers want to know it's going to be coffee ice cream and a darker tan color will give people a sense of richness too.

    We both agree to be your guinea pigs for future ice cream trials. :)

  3. Bao,

    That sounds so good. I can't wait to try it. I agree that the coffee grinds in the first batch were a bit much... I've been getting the Pike's Place Roast every time I go to Starbuck's lately, so I'm already a fan of your coffee choice. I'm sure it will be excellent. Good luck!
