Viral Ice Cream & Stunning Pastries – Joe Nicchi & Michelle Palazzo | Knead To Know Baking Podcast

Two unforgettable Knead to Know interviews in one sweet package. First, Joe Nicchi , founder of CVT Soft Serve , shares how a childhood love for seasonal ice cream in upstate New York became LA’s cult favorite soft serve truck. From the viral “Influencers Pay Double” sign to a Bill Murray encounter that lit up the internet, Joe’s stories are as bold as his flavors — plus, what happened when Jeff Bezos called about a $15K soft serve machine. Then, Michelle Palazzo , pastry director at NYC’s Frenchette , takes us inside her seasonal pastry menu — including her signature Sicilian pistachio Paris Brest. She reveals how she builds desserts around the best produce of the season, why peach and tomato belong together, and how a perfect crumble can rival any plated dessert. 📌 Mentioned Links: • CVT Soft Serve → https://cvtsoftserve.com • Frenchette NYC → https://frenchettenyc.com 📩 Interested in sponsoring the show?
