Gelato vs. Ice Cream: Which One Is Your Winner?
One of the most frequent stops on the recent trip to Beaver Creek was Rimini. I couldn’t help but stare at the sight of all the delicious creamy flavors of gelato. Of course, in food blogger fashion, I had to whip out the camera and take pictures of all the creamy goodness.
On this day, the fresh flavor offerings included peanut butter, espresso, cookies and cream, mint chocolate chip, popcorn (yes, really!), strawberry shortcake, dark chocolate, vanilla, and the best of all…CAKE BATTER (loving the sprinkles)!
So what makes gelato different from ice cream? It definitely has a different feel on the tongue. It also seems to have a more intense, rich flavor in my opinion. Here are some gelato vs. ice cream facts: Ice cream has a minimum of 10 percent fat. Gelato is made with a greater proportion of whole milk to cream, so it contains on average five to seven percent fat. Gelato is churned at a slower speed than ice cream, so it is more dense. Not as much air is whipped into the mixture. Ice cream is served frozen. Gelato is not completely frozen. It is stored and served at a slightly warmer temperature. So which one is the winner for you…Ice cream or Gelato? What flavors of gelato have you tried?
