After the ice cream is cut in half with the big knife, does the dissected ice cream then get thrown out, or does someone get to eat it?
What a great question! I assume you are referring to the daily dealing of ice cream that is made the day before but did not sell out.
1. The ice cream could be re-made along with other remnant ice cream produced that day, make it new fresh ice cream again.
Inserting the leftover gelato into the batch freezer with a new batch is the quickest and easiest solution. This is another instance where recirculating the gelato will also help refresh the texture and flavor.
2. To mix it with coffee: Coffee and gelato are as traditionally Italian as pasta and sauce. Considering coffee’s popularity in America (about 35 percent of people drink coffee every day1). Affogato is gelato topped with espresso and whipped cream. With this process, giving new life to remnant gelato can be a breeze.
3. Save Room for Gelato Cake: Around the world, there are many different varieties of cakes, making it a classic in every dessert menu. Pastry chefs are always experimenting with new and innovative ideas – one of which is gelato cake. Layers of different gelato flavors, cake and filling can offer a new twist for cakes. 2
4. Shake, Rattle and Roll: Milkshakes are another American classic when it comes to family fun desserts. Since gelato’s main component is milk, break out the blender and turn it into a gelato shake. It’s simple to make and a favorite with children. Recirculating the gelato will also help refresh the texture and flavor. 3
5. Anything Is Heaven when it’s covered in Chocolate
Popsicles have always been a favorite among Americans. Applying this innovation to gelato will make the customers want to keep coming back for more. Fill a mold tray with gelato, add a stick and freeze till sets. Then, cover with PreGel Gran Stracciatella Reale and freeze. No one will be able to resist these luscious frozen bars.
