Saffron Spot - Artesia, CA

Can you think of a single reason NOT to try Indian ice cream? I cannot. 


Saffron Silk sounds like the one to try, but it's actually my least favorite of the three. All are thick and creamy, but I'm not sure this herb works with all the sugar. Saffron is all about the subtlety, and infusing enough of that flavor to not be eclipsed by the cream and sugar makes it finish like perfume. 
Chikoo, on the other hand, is perfect for an ice cream. It's a tropical fruit I've never had, but if the ice cream is any indication, the fruit is pretty awesome. It's sweet and tastes like it'd be soft and buttery like a ripe pear and a hint of gooey molasses. Kulfi Cream is by far the best. It's sold separately because each scoop is more expensive than all the other and for good reason. The creaminess is unsurpassed, with sweet, milky, and nutty notes all together, and I do believe I get some aromatic notes of cardamom.

Not cheap but what good food is? They have so many flavors I've never seen, I only wish I wasn't too full to try a few more.
