This week: Ice cream and cool dessert recipes, a preview of Rose’s Ice Cream Bliss and more

On July 7th Rose Levy Beranbaum’s new cookbook Rose’s Ice Cream Bliss will be released. As with everything that sweet Rose does, you can expect nothing short of greatness! The pineapple caramel recipe is alone worth the cost of admission. You will be tempted to take the jar and have some one-on-one special time – just you, the caramel, and a spoon (well the spoon may be optional).

In this title, Rose delivers varied ice cream flavors from humble vanilla to maple candied walnut. But the fun doesn’t stop there, oh no! Recipes for toppings, sauces, desserts, and more are included as well as ice cream social ideas. If you haven’t preordered this book, do so now!

This week I shared a post on The Chicago Cookbook along with some great promotions on two fantastic Interlink titles: Venetian Republic and Carpathia. These giveaways are open worldwide (2 copies US/1 copy worldwide provided by EYB). Just a tip, make the Apricot yogurt cake (Prajitura cu caise) shared in the promotion (my photo above). It is quick and incredibly delicious. My son loved it (we all did). I have plans to make the cake again with different fruits.

    I really enjoyed this roundup and I’m looking forward to the ice cream book. I’ve enjoyed this author’s work in the past.

    Jenny, I love every word you wrote and especially that you highlighted my fav pineapple caramel. i hope you will also try the upside-down lemon meringue–the one recipe i couldn’t stop eating during the photo shoot! and we love the black raspberry ice cream so much we put in many bushes to make sure we always have plenty of berries in the freezer so many exciting things to explore–even a few recipes that don’t use an ice cream maker. thank you so much for posting this.
