Dolce Dessert
- Photography by: Jennifer Baum
What do you get when you mix the sponginess of tiramisu and the custard consistency of sabayon, and then mash the cold, creamy result between two chewy cookies? Dolcelinos, the gourmet ice-cream-like sandwiches that have put Swan’s Way Catering (25 Fernalds Neck Rd., Lincolnville, 207-763-3996, www.cateringmaine.com) on the frozen-treat map. Try one (or several) in traditional flavors such as coffee and chocolate-chocolate, or go for the lemon ginger and the adventurous “Aztec” (vanilla custard with a chili powder kick). Inspired by Italian custard-style desserts (hence, the Italiano name), Dolcelinos originally debuted as a dessert option on the company’s catering menu. However, the scrumptious sandwiches developed a loyal following of their own, and have since gone retail. You can pick them up at the Belfast Co-op, the Hope General Store, Treats in Wiscasset, Camden’s French & Brawn and Megunticook Market, and the Market Basket and Fresh off the Farm in Rockport. Look for the treats to appear in more stores soon.
