Frozen desserts

Last week, I was at the Olive Oil Tasting Festival in Edremit, where we sampled various olive oils and even tried goat milk olive oil ice cream made by the Italian "ice cream philosopher," Marco Radicioni. Marco is a hero who is carrying gastronomy forward.

Let’s face it, we all love ice cream — and some of us are very fond of soft ice cream. Yet it is not widely known in Greece that the man who invented soft ice cream was a Greek immigrant in the United States whose name became legend there.

A truly wonderful summer dessert! The mastic gives it its unique aroma, while the salep provides its special chewy texture. If you pair it with homemade spoon sweets, you’ll reach perfection.

Ingredients

Slovenian gelato company Aroma Global is launching ice-cream production in Croatia's Ogulin in what it says will be the world's largest gelato factory using all-natural ingredients.

The company has invested €7.3 million in expansion over the past 15 months, opening 47 new ice-cream parlours in Croatia on top of existing three. They have none in Slovenia.
