"The new seasonal menu features warm Cookies à la Mode, mini ice cream sandwiches and affogatos made with Caffè Panna ice cream, which will be on offer all summer long. The biggest headline here is probably the new ice cream sandwiches, which take Levain's signature thick cookies and shrink them down into more manageable handheld versions stuffed with ice cream. (Great news for anyone who has ever attempted to eat a full Levain cookie in July and immediately regretted it.)"
"Customers will also be able to order Cookies à la Mode—a warm 6-ounce cookie paired with a scoop of ice cream, customizable with whichever Levain cookie you choose. Then there are the affogatos, which pour fresh espresso over ice cream. The partnership makes a lot of sense given how deeply both brands are woven into modern New York dessert culture."
"Levain has spent years evolving from an Upper West Side neighborhood bakery into a full-blown cookie empire, even being named the most popular bakery in America in a 2023 study ranking bakery-related TikTok buzz. Meanwhile, Caffè Panna has become one of the city's most line-inducing ice cream destinations thanks to owner Hallie Meyer's Rome-inspired approach to ultra-rich gelato-style scoops"
Levain Bakery and Caffè Panna are collaborating on a summer lineup of frozen and warm desserts. The menu includes warm Cookies à la Mode, mini ice cream sandwiches, and affogatos made with Caffè Panna ice cream. The ice cream sandwiches use Levain’s thick cookies, scaled down into handheld versions stuffed with ice cream. Cookies à la Mode feature a warm 6-ounce cookie paired with a scoop of ice cream, with customization based on the chosen Levain cookie. Affogatos are prepared by pouring fresh espresso over ice cream. The partnership combines Levain’s cookie empire reputation with Caffè Panna’s popular, line-inducing gelato-style scoops inspired by Rome.
