Question
There is a dessert based on a cake with ice cream on top. Should one bless it at the end of the meal?
Answer
If there is a large layer of ice cream, it is appropriate to separate and bless the ice cream independently as 'Shehakol'. If it is a thin layer of ice cream, since one does not bless the cake due to the doubt whether it is considered 'Pat Haba Bekisnin', as it is kneaded but not crumbly or filled. The ice cream is secondary to the cake, and therefore, one does not bless even on the ice cream.
