There are few desserts as simple yet as indulgent as the classic affogato. Traditionally an Italian treat that pairs hot espresso poured over cold, creamy gelato, the affogato is the perfect blend of bold coffee and sweet indulgence. At Delicias Bakery & Ice Cream Shop, we’ve put our own Cuban twist on this timeless dessert — and it’s quickly becoming a guest favorite.
What Makes an Affogato Special?
The magic of an affogato lies in the contrast: hot meets cold, bold meets sweet. As the rich espresso cascades over a scoop of our handcrafted ice cream, it creates a velvety, melting swirl that’s part drink, part dessert. Every bite (or sip!) is a balance of flavors and textures that satisfies both your coffee craving and your sweet tooth.
The Delicias Cuban Touch
At Delicias, coffee isn’t just a drink — it’s part of our culture. Our signature Cuban espresso, brewed strong and bold, is the star of our affogatos. Paired with our house-made ice cream flavors, from classic vanilla to decadent dulce de leche or guava cheesecake, the result is something uniquely Delicias.
Want to make it extra special? Try pairing your affogato with our coffee chocolate chip ice cream or a seasonal flavor for a delicious twist.
Perfect Anytime of Day
Affogatos aren’t just for dessert. They’re a pick-me-up in the afternoon, a sweet finish after a meal, or even a weekend indulgence when you need a little something extra with your coffee. Whether you’re stopping in for a pastelito, fueling up at the gas station, or treating the family to ice cream, adding an affogato to your order is always a good idea.
