Salt & Straw
August’s limited ice cream flavors are part of the “Veggies You Crave Series,” an ode to the end of the summer season.
These adventurous foodie flavors are:
- Carrot Cake Batter w/ Pralined Hazelnuts: Plump, sugar-coated and slow-roasted carrots blend into a creamy, spiced ice cream that makes for the perfect host to crunchy, candied hazelnuts and a swirl of cheesecake frosting.
- Spinach Cake w/ Chocolate Tahini Fudge: Inspired by a classic Turkish dessert, spinach is baked into a fluffy golden-green cake slathered with chocolate frosting, then crumbled into a vanilla ice cream with smears of housemade tahini fudge.
- Green Fennel & Maple: This luscious green ice cream is made from an entire fennel plant with roasted seeds and juiced leaves, then steeped in fennel pollen and sweet maple syrup for a refreshing black licorice-like flavor.
- Charred Corn Curd, Cotija & Tajin: As an ode to Mexican street corn, Elote, torched corn is blended into a curd and ribboned through a housemade mayo ice cream with a touch of lime & tajin, topped with crumbles of cotija cheese.
- Red Chili Curry & Makrut Lime Crispy Rice (vegan): Inspired by Southeast Asian curries, red chilis, lemongrass, ginger, and spices are roasted together with a splash of makrut lime and mixed into coconut cream. It’s then topped off with handfuls of crispy rice florentines loaded with makrut lime.
It’s one way to get the kids to eat their veggies while they’re at Disney. And yes, these flavors are also available at the Disneyland location.
