Everybody loves ice cream, and you can find varieties of ice cream around the world. Rolled ice cream is one type that originated in Thailand in Southeast Asia. But, it can now be found in many places around the U.S., including Roanoke, VA. Valley native and owner of Champloo Desserts Khanh knew that Roanoke residents needed to experience the rolled ice cream he loved. If you’ve never had this decadent treat, then it’s time you rolled into Champloo Desserts for its famous rolled ice cream.
How Rolled Ice Cream Is Different
Rolled ice cream presents both a stunning visual and a fresh take on flavor. Makers use fresh ingredients on an ultra-cold surface to create the ice cream. Once the ice cream base is ready, you can customize your dessert with fruit and other mix-ins that the maker will work into the ice cream. Then, the maker spreads the treat thinly across the cold surface and uses a spatula to lift the ice cream into rolls. Tasty and fun, once you try rolled ice cream, you’ll be hooked.
