How do you choose the best cake and ice cream flavor for a balanced dessert?

reno_queen

I’ve noticed that many bakeries and restaurants now serve cakes with ice cream, and when the pairing is done right, it really elevates the dessert. For example, a rich chocolate cake with raspberry sorbet tastes completely different from the same cake with vanilla ice cream. I’m trying to understand the principles behind pairing cake flavors with ice cream: How do you decide which flavors complement or contrast each other? Are there “rules”...
