. Start with a sturdy, indulgent base to support your sundae layers. Try freshly baked brownies for fudgy decadence, a buttery croissant for lightness, or a slice of dense cake for softness. For a fruity twist, add caramelised bananas or roasted berries which can lend a light and juicy dimension to the dessert.
. Choose a good-quality gelato or ice cream which is smooth, rich, and velvety without being heavy. It should have that clean, pure flavour that compliments the other ingredients but still shines on its own. Pick a classic or unique flavour like a chocolate, vanilla or a refreshing sorbet.
. Have fun with the toppings and use them to add texture, colour and flavour to the sundae. Try roasted nuts for crunch, chewy mochi for a twist, or a sprinkle of cocoa for sophistication. A drizzle of warm sauces like a silky chocolate ganache or a rich caramel can mingle with the cold gelato and add a comforting sweetness. Add honeycomb, fresh fruits, or cookie crumbles to keep each bite unique
. Balance and layering is key to an unforgettable sundae. Aim for a mix of crunchy, creamy, hot, and cold elements to keep each bite exciting. Layers ingredients that complement each other.
