  10. I do have one question. From the top of the Ingredients list – you put the caramel in the bottom of shot glass – but then do you blend together ice cream, milk, sea salt AND cupcake? What do to with cupcake is the question. Thanks!!

  11. The meaning of the phrase “ice cream” varies from one country to another. Phrases such as “frozen custard”, “frozen yogurt”, “sorbet”, “gelato” and others are used to distinguish different varieties and styles. In some countries, such as the United States, the phrase “ice cream” applies only to a specific variety, and most governments regulate the commercial use of the various terms according to the relative quantities of the main ingredients.

  15. Where’s the love button?

    All of your desserts are *fabulous*, and how innovative to add a dash of sea salt to give this scrumptious dessert a sweet/salty taste.

    My question is, “How many of these did you eat yourself before posting”? haha
