Three elements rather than one, which is what separates this from the two Gianni's salted caramels: a salted caramel base, a sauce swirled through it and toffee pieces for texture. The pieces are the addition that matters. A salted caramel ice cream is otherwise entirely smooth, and toffee is one of the few inclusions that stays firm in the cold without turning to a shard, since its sugar content keeps it from freezing solid. Made with West Country cream, which is a sourcing description rather than a protected name. Salt is doing its usual work here, suppressing bitterness and sharpening sweetness so the caramel reads deeper rather than simply sweeter.
