Coffee and Espresso in Ice Cream
February 20, 2006 Posted by Chris Tingom Filed under Coffee
For my birthday I visited a restaurant called The Rose in Prescott and for dessert my parents and I decided to try two kinds of dessert. One was a walnut sort of cake which simply tasted amazing. Somewhere between a pecan pie and a butter cake. It was served warm with vanilla ice cream and it had a thin crust somewhat similar to a pecan tart yet served extra soft which made it melt in your mouth.
The next cake was chocolate and served warm with chocolate sauce and a homemade espresso ice cream. Apparently they make it at the restaurant. I was impressed as the flavor of an espresso shot came through and didn’t taste much different than, well, espresso.
If you have ever tried coffee or mocha ice cream this was very much better. There was less burnt coffee taste and more espresso crema you might say and it tasted fresh — perhaps made within a few hours. Quite good and worth trying if you need a good dinner in Prescott.

Arizona Coffee » Cuppers Coffee House in Prescott says:
[…] I received an email from Karen Richmond the other day after she discovered Arizona Coffee. She owns Cuppers Coffee House in Prescott. I’ve actually seen the establishment and didn’t have time to stop inside (but I did snap the above photo). She wrote in to tell me about the coffee house and sent along these photos. Cuppers is right next to The Rose Restaurant which is famous in Prescott. I opened Cuppers 3 months ago and I’m impressed that you have me listed on your site. Cuppers is in an old home built in 1872 and customers have three rooms to choose from in which to sit. It’s casual, nice and everything is homemade in the house; muffins, brownies, cake (CupperCakes to be exact), cookies, etc. I have live entertainment Friday and Saturday nights. […]
