🍨 Pint Profile: Alec’s Ice Cream Maple Cardamom Candied Pecan
If autumn had a signature scent and flavor, this would be it. Alec’s Ice Cream’s Maple Cardamom Candied Pecan is an experience in layered warmth. Organic maple syrup sweetness balanced by aromatic cardamom and a satisfying pecan crunch.
It’s sophisticated but deeply comforting. The kind of pint that transforms an ordinary evening into a fire side ritual. The cardamom lingers like a memory, while the maple’s buttery notes pull everything together in perfect harmony.
Tasting notes:
✨ Maple syrup warmth
🌰 Toasted pecan crunch
🌿 Gentle spice finish
Pair it with:
A slice of pumpkin loaf or butter cake
Drizzle of warm honey or bourbon caramel
