Our next chocolate vendor is Parfait Organic Artisan Ice Cream. One can’t help but to stop by their booth after one look at their dark jars (with bright orange-yellow labels) stacked up neatly. My curiosity was peaked.
Parfait is a local Seattle business that makes organic homemade ice cream as well as sauces. Just looking at the website, the flavors sound divine. Unfortunately I didn’t get the chance to sample their ice cream but here’s an idea on what’s on the menu: Vanilla Bean, Decadent Chocolate, Mint Stracciatella, Butter Toffee Crunch, Fiorè French Roast, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup, Fleur de Caramel, Earl Grey Tea, Milk Chocolate Chai, Orange Star-Anise, Blackberry Beauty and just in time for fall Pumpkin Spice. Hmmm, just reading these make my mouth water! What do you think?
The person running the booth was getting set up (I got to the festival just after it opened) but was able to chat with her for a few minutes about the company and their products.
Let’s start with the sauces! Sauce au Chocolat (organic) and Sauce au Caramel a la Vanille (with Madagascar vanilla beans). Both were divine and rich with a light texture that dissolves effortlessly on your tongue. My fave? Well, I have to say the Sauce au Caramel a la Vanille. Don’t get me wrong the Sauce au Chocolat was good, but if I had to make a choice. Sauce au Caramel a la Vanille is the perfect jar to eat out with a spoon or use as topping for desserts or even sliced apples.
Parfait sells their yummy ice cream off their truck at local events and offer home delivery services. How convenient is that? Just place your order online and expect your decadent treats to arrive shortly in an insulated bag. From what I am told, the staff is treated like family so you can tell it is community minded.
