Stracciatella: An Italian hit by chance

Imagine this: An Italian chef accidentally drops liquid chocolate into his vanilla cream. The result? Stracciatella!

This creamy ice cream flavor with its crunchy chocolate chips is now a worldwide classic. The name "Stracciatella" comes from the Italian verb "stracciare", which means "to tear" or "to shred" and refers to the irregular chocolate chips. A story of creativity and serendipity that will delight your customers.

Spaghetti ice cream: a German invention with cult status

Spaghetti ice cream is a German classic that was invented in Mannheim in the 1960s.

Ice cream maker Dario Fontanella was inspired by the shape of spaghetti and created an ice cream specialty that still delights young and old today. Vanilla ice cream is pressed through a spaghetti press (today there are professional spaghetti ice cream presses), garnished with strawberry sauce and white chocolate and looks deceptively like a plate of spaghetti. A story of inventiveness and culinary illusion that will amaze your customers.

Malaga: A Spanish specialty with tradition

Malaga ice cream transports your customers straight to the sunny Costa del Sol with its fruity, creamy taste.

It owes its name to the famous dessert wine from Andalusia, Málaga wine, which is also one of the main ingredients. The combination of sweet, creamy milk ice cream, raisins soaked in Malaga wine and a hint of cream results in an unmistakable taste experience. The origins of Malaga ice cream are not clear, but it is thought to have been produced in Malaga as early as the 19th century. A story of tradition and sunny indulgence that will seduce your customers.

Amarena: an Italian cherry specialty with a history

Amarena ice cream is a creamy temptation with fruity cherries and a slightly tart note that transports your customers to the sweet world of Italy.

The secret of this special taste lies in the Amarena cherries, a special type of sour cherry that is preserved in an aromatic syrup. The history of the Amarena cherry dates back to the early 20th century, when Gennaro Fabbri in Bologna began to candy this special type of cherry according to an old family recipe. Today, Amarena cherries and the ice cream made from them are a symbol of Italian culinary culture and joie de vivre.

Smurf ice cream: a blue wonder made from natural ingredients

Smurf ice cream - a type of ice cream that not only makes children's eyes light up. But wait a minute, do they use real Smurfs?

Of course not! The secret behind the blue color is natural colorants such as spirulina. This microalgae not only gives the ice cream its eye-catching color, but also a touch of the exotic and valuable nutrients. Smurf ice cream is therefore not only fun for the eyes, but also a healthy treat! A story with a twinkle in the eye that will make your customers smile and at the same time emphasize the fun and naturalness of ice cream enjoyment.
