Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
Vanilla ice cream is one of the most classic frozen desserts there is. We love indulging in this creamy treat by itself, or paired with any delicious accompaniment (apple pie, anyone?). When you use vanilla beans sourced from some of the most incredible locales, it truly makes a difference in the overall taste. Not to brag…but you’ll seriously notice a whole new depth of flavour when you use vanilla beans from Vanilla Planet!
