This Midwest staple has been popping up in various locations throughout the southland, including Venice, Larchmont, Los Feliz and Calabassas, as well as other parts of the country. One of the first ice cream makers to use whole ingredients and dairy from grass-pastured cows, Jeni's has received a lot of attention over the last 15 years. Like every other shop, they have a killer salted caramel, theirs popping the taste buds with its potent flavors. Other mouth-watering but unusual options include coriander, hard cider, cream puff and cocoa curry, to name a few. The ultimate, though, may be the 'darkest chocolate'a chocolate lovers dream that incorporates the maximum ratio of cocoa to dairy.
