Gelato bowl

Today gelato bowl has become a genuine artistic composition, where gelato flavours, sauces, fruit, liqueurs, cream and wafers are carefully selected, in terms of flavours, colours and shapes. And every self-respecting gelato maker boasts at least one special bowl composition on his menu to demonstrate his expertise and creativity.

Milkshake

It is easy to prepare delicious gelato-based milkshakes and all the recipes are very similar. Simply pour the ingredients into the milkshake mixer glass, blend for a few minutes and serve immediately in tall glasses, adding a straw or a long tea-spoon. The product becomes even more inviting if it is personalised with small decorations: like cut or bunched fruit, or even a blob of cream.

Blended gelato, “affogato”

This kind of gelato is served in tall glasses that contain both gelato and other ingredients. It should be served with a long tea-spoon so customers can stir the ingredients if they wish. “Affogato” means gelato is placed at the bottom of a glass and “drowned” with a liquid as desired. These specialities are also called “iced”, because the gelato cools down the liquid that is usually hot.

Long drinks with gelato

These are pleasant combinations, usually obtained by mixing gelato with sweet wine or spumante. The highly appealing colour and aromas released from the glass invite customers to taste it. They are recipes particularly suited to receptions or other special occasions, as well as being ideal for the summer.

Gelato cocktails

Even if they are not very well known, cocktails containing gelato are highly appreciated by gourmets as a pleasant drink where the combination of spirits and gelato gives life to a fresh and pleasant result. A truly vast range of recipes is ready and waiting.
