Honey Allspice Flavor Pairings

While you can eat this on its own and be perfectly happy, this honey allspice ice cream is a great pairing for other desserts. So if you feel like going vanilla a la mode is not EXTRA enough for you, this honey allspice ice cream is the answer. Also, vanilla beans have been quite expensive as of late, and hard to come by.

I thought of this ice cream flavor because I was looking for a special ice cream to go with with my nectarine mascarpone tart. As I learned from making that tart, nectarines have a flavor affinity with both honey and allspice. When paired with fresh nectarines, honey allspice ice cream provides a cold, creamy texture with the delicate flavor of spice.

I also find the honey allspice flavor to be reminiscent of fall – it would also pair well with an apple crisp, gingersnaps / ginger bread, or pumpkin pie spice desserts.
