A good friend of mine gave me a lovely gift of three kinds of fancy maple syrups, the kind that are aged in bourbon or whisky barrels. I’d like to do a sort of ‘tasting’ to let people try them in a way that will bring out the different flavours.

My first thought was making some little batches of fudge, but I did a test run with just regular maple syrup and it seemed like the caramelization process would overwhelm any more subtle flavours. So I was thinking maybe freezing little tbsp-size scoops of a nice vanilla ice cream and pouring a teaspoon or so of each syrup over it. Or maybe miniature pancakes.

Anyway I’m open to suggestions. :) Thanks!
