Artisan Biscotti Meets Ice Cream

Artisan Biscotti Meets Ice Cream: Summer’s Sweetest Scoop.

It’s a pairing that feels perfectly suited for lazy summer afternoons, backyard cookouts, and evenings on the porch. While ice cream may seem like a modern indulgence, America’s love affair with this frozen treat stretches back to our nation’s earliest days.

According to the History Channel, George Washington was so fond of ice cream that he owned a mechanical ice cream maker at Mount Vernon and served the dessert to guests as early as 1784. That same year, Thomas Jefferson discovered the creamy delicacy while serving as an American diplomat in France. Jefferson was known for recording everything, yet historians believe he wrote down only about ten recipes during his lifetime—and one of them was for French Vanilla Ice Cream. It’s safe to say that Americans have been enjoying ice cream for well over two centuries.

At G. G. Biscotti Co., we thought it was time to add another delicious chapter to that story by pairing handcrafted artisan biscotti with everyone’s favorite frozen dessert.

Our artisan biscotti are handmade in small batches, hand cut, and twice baked to create our signature softer crunch. They’re sturdy enough to crumble over a sundae, yet tender enough to enjoy alongside a scoop of your favorite ice cream.
