Kem Bơ is the creamy and indulgent sweet soul of Da Nang's dessert scene, a unique central-style treat that transforms the humble avocado into a decadent masterpiece. The dish consists of a thick, silky base of mashed fresh avocado, topped with a scoop of coconut milk ice cream, and finished with a generous scattering of crunchy toasted coconut and dried jackfruit. To eat it like a local, you must stir the ingredients thoroughly until the cold ice cream melts into the creamy avocado, creating a rich and velvet-textured dessert that is the ultimate antidote to the city's tropical heat. The trap is 'watery' avocado or artificial flavors; it must be made from high-quality, ripe butter avocados and use real coconut milk ice cream for the essential tropical depth. It is a popular treat among students and families alike during the warm evenings.
