Sweet Pizza Crust Ice Creams

Bruno Pizza is Serving Up Ice Cream Made with Actual Pizza Crust

Some people live for the last bite of pizza crust and now there is a way to savor that flavor even longer thanks to Bruno Pizza's latest creation. However, this New York City-based pizzeria is not just churning out a new pie with a specialty crust. Instead, the restaurant has debuted a sweet dessert made with doughy and crispy pizza crusts.

Just as the name suggests, Bruno Pizza's new Pizza Dough Ice Cream is a sweet treat made with actual pizza crusts. To create the unusual dessert, owner Demian Repucci starts with organic wheat from a farm in Ithaca, New York. The wheat is then ground down into flour in Bruno’s basement mill to create plain dough, which is then baked in a wood oven, ripped apart, toasted, and charred before it is thrown into ice cream.

While the toasty scoop can be enjoyed in a bowl, customers can also enjoy the ice cream on top of a sweet cinnamon-sugar pizza.
