Eggnong Membrillo with Mixed Nuts
Caffè Panna is inspired by the cafes and gelato shops of Rome, which are a ubiquitous part of daily life in the eternal city and serve everyone from Bambini to nonnas. CaffePanna's goal is to bring that same welcoming spirit and all-day accessibility to the heart of New York City, with an emphasis on delicious ice cream that marries elements of both Italian and American traditions. Every Day CaffePanna offers five staple flavors, and five chosen by the kitchen at the particular moment. The menu is always varying, which makes the shop incredibly unique and a must-stop in New York City.
Eggnog Membrillo with Mixed Nuts is labeled as "Eggnog ice Cream with Homemade Quince Fudge Chunks & All-Nut Brittle". Eggnog is made up of milk eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. CaffePanna was able to mask the eggy taste and find a happy medium with a luscious milky flavor that pairs well with the complimenting spices. The spices linger into the aftertaste, and continue to grow on you the deeper you dig into the ice cream. The amount of sweetness is just right as the bold and dense base takes the spotlight.
The homemade quince fudge chunks and All-Nut Brittle are everywhere. The consistency of the mix-ins is top-notch. The brittle has a thick crunch to it but provides a brown sugar and molasses addition that is welcoming to the fantastic base. With a very hard and crunchy mix-in comes melt in your mouth fudge chunks. The combination of a crunchy and chewy mix-in makes this a well-rounded pint.
I will admit it I hate eggnog, and have never enjoyed it growing up. Maybe I was drinking the wrong brands, or always got the bottom of the barrel quality, but this pint changed my view forever. You are presented with a premium base, a sheet of brittle, and moist fudge that surpass what I have experienced from other brands on the market. This pint works in every aspect and is an absolute must if it is on the menu when you step foot in CaffePanna.
