It’s the month of love, and couples are looking for new, creative ways to share their love with their sweethearts, and in honour of Valentine's Day this year, Salt & Sraw at Disney Springs have a set, frozen, and indulgent way to show your love, with a new limited time only Chocolatier’s Series of rich, creamy chocolate ice creams.
The Disney Spring's scoop shop Salt & Straw has a pretty unique menu features 12 regular classic flavors as well as a rotating monthly menu that is always evolving offering seasonal various specials, and for February, Salt & straw have created The Chocolatier's Series,
Fran's Almond Gold Bar
Salt & Straw have chopped up Fran's Chocolates iconic Almond Gold Bars into bite-sized pieces and toss them into a silky salted vanilla ice cream. Ribbons of heavenly hand-burned caramel and ultra rich dark chocolate stracciatella are drizzled in to deliver a flavor you’re sure to fall head over heels for.
Cloudforest Chocolate Ishpingo & Mango
Complex and captivating, just like all great love stories. A tart lemon verbena sherbet spiced with ishpingo– a warm, cinnamon-y spice grown in the forests of Ecuador– is swirled with a delightfully intense dark chocolate ice cream created in collaboration with Cloudforest. A ripple of mango curd marries the contrasting flavors with a loving tropical touch.
Dandelion Cocoa Nibs & Frangipane
Even Cupid can’t resist this level of luxury. Dandelion’s dark cocoa nibs are steeped to create a stunning roasted chocolate base, then candied and tossed back into the ice cream for double the cocoa power. A velvety frangipane swirl flecked with bits of crushed almonds is gently folded in for a flirtatious finish
Compartés Coffee & Love Nuts
An ice cream as cozy and comforting as Sunday morning, created in tribute to Compartés founder Jonathan Grahm’s mission to share love through chocolate. Sadly & Straw have mixed a smooth, caramel-y medium roast coffee from Colombia, blended it with cream, and stud it with Compartés immaculate Love Nuts– pecans caramelized in tahitian vanilla, sprinkled with sea salt, then coated in 14 layers of chocolate.
Exquisito Guanabana Stracciatella
Is there a pairing more romantic than fruit & chocolate? Native to the tropical regions of the Americas and the Caribbean, guanabana– or soursop– is an extraordinary fruit with a distinctly sweet and creamy flavor. Salt & Straw have blended this perfect produce into a bright, refreshing guanabana sherbet, then teamed up with Exquisito to adorn it with a ribbon of a roasty, floral dark chocolate stracciatella.
