Jenn-

So I was wondering how the flavor with the goat’s milk compared to using cow’s milk- I’d imagine that it would be tangier and perhaps fresher tasting, but wasn’t sure how much that would come through using eggs and cream in addition.

I’ve been contemplating making a similar ice cream, only using goat cheese instead of pure goat’s milk. I’ve seen a recipe that uses Snøfrisk (sure you’ve had that) and krokan (those carmelized nutty candies).

Anyways, you know I love the addition of vanilla and cardamom and the cake looks divine.

Lori, I can find Goat’s milk either at my farmers market, or a pasturized version at the grocery store. And I know places like Whole Foods carries it.

The cake looks delicious. Where would you even get goat’s milk to try? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it. Sounds interesting to try.

Jenn, you sold me. This cake sounds delicious. I agree with you about over-sweetened chocolate. It just doesn’t do anything for me. The sugar masks the decadent chocolate flavor.

The cake looks amazing, of course. I am completely smitten by the idea of using goats milk in an ice cream!

The cake sounds amazing.
While you are writing about goat milk ice cream and goat fromage blanc, I’m writing about goat butter and warm goat cheese salad…YAY for goat milk!

Wow, that cake’s absolutely stunning! And, reading about the cake and ice cream were wonderful, too. I’m just imagining all the flavors together. We’ve had different friends with goats for years. With one couple we’d make goats’ milk ice cream every weekend almost, because they had so much. Often we’d pick berries and then make the ice cream–some great batches were enjoyed. Thanks for reminding me, Jenn!
