You're welcome Clémentine. And yeah it is a bit hard to find some books since many letters are there twice, but it is my favourite ice cream flavour, so it is worth it. :)

In Europe, ice cream with a vanilla base and chocolate shavings is also called stracciatella.

Jacquelyn I added sweet cream, but I forgot to ask you if it was ok! If you need to change it I can. Thanks :)
That's fine! :D
Stracciatella is delicious. <3 <3 <3 It is also not only ice cream though. :) You also got Stracciatella Vla and other products with it.
And I will continue with this challenge when I am done with the other challenges. :)
I looked it up and it looks soooooo good! :D
If you ever find it, I would recommend you try it out. :) There is also a few recipes how to make things I believe, so you could try that out too.
I'll look up a recipe. I've never seen this flavor before.
Good luck with making it, hope it will work out, and that you will like it. :)
Quick question, can I omit "the" or "A" in the title of the book? Like if I wanted to use The Elite, could use it for the letter "E"? Thanks! :)
Yeah. "The" and "A" are articles, so they don't count. (:
Yay!! Ok thanks Angela! I automatically omit them because of my work (while I shelf read), I wanted to make sure it was ok here too! :)
