No. Toasting the bread would make the two textures clash.

will have to try it. did they toast the bread?

Yup. On the recent Kit Kat thread, I commented that the blandness of white bread counters the sweetness of ice cream which works well for me. I don't eat a lot of ice cream but next time I'm at a get-together, I'm going to make an ice cream sandwich just to see the reaction!

A ha! So it's a Southeast Asian thing. Well they do it here in Indonesia too.
I like it, it makes whatever ice cream you eat taste like an ice cream cake.

Have you ever heard of people eating ice cream with bread?
Common in the Philippines and Thailand, Delta.
