Jessica’s ode to ice cream. Elise pops up homemade popsicles. Françoise’s strawberry soirée. Taking the icy rhubarb-raspberry route. Matt’s plum crazy. Exploring her sweet (not savory) side. Derrick rocks with Hot Fudge Sauce. Adam sings for his scoop.
More Scoopers!… Shauna puckers up for me. (…or is it my Super Lemon Ice Cream?) A tasty ménage-a-deaux of chocolate & roasted banana, from fudgy Fidget. Oh-la-la! Cindy’s on a French Vanilla sugar high (#31…to be exact). Sassy Radish licks the bowl clean when she spins her own scooper-duper frozen yogurt. Lisa’s almost up to 31 flavors! Tammy gives birth to the mother of all…
Here’s my address book for the most popular and some of my favorite places for ice cream in Paris. I recently published an updated list of ice cream shops in Paris=> Here!

And since I’ve started plying the Parisian vendors with brownies, I’m getting the much-desired VIP treatment at the market. It’s nice…
Do you have a Chef’s Choice Waffle Cone Express machine? I used it for making the ice cream cones in The Perfect Scoop.
