Summary

Van Leeuwen Coffee Affogato scores 68/100. Labeled 'Frozen Dairy Dessert' rather than ice cream. Ten ingredients — cream, milk, cane sugar, water, egg yolks, coffee, tapioca syrup, sea salt, carob bean gum, and guar gum. Uses real coffee and egg yolks, no artificial flavors, no seed oils. However, contains two gums (carob bean gum and guar gum) as stabilizers, water as a filler ingredient, and refined cane sugar plus tapioca syrup as dual sweeteners. The gums and water are a step down from the Honeycomb formula.
