Click the image to download a PDF of the recipe.

Inspired by the Latin American confection, dulce de leche, this frozen novelty concept is more than just a caramel frozen dessert, it’s a creamy bliss. Paired with coconut cream and coconut flakes, this treat is oh so sweet and oh so creamy. The use of both coconut cream and dairy cream provides a unique and longer-lasting creamy texture due to the melting point differences of the coconut fat (78ᵒF) and the dairy fat (104ᵒF).
