About
Cool, creamy, irresistibly Italian, and served in handmade waffle cones. Churn a golden-hued saffron and rosewater Gelato allo Zafferano e Pistacchi, sprinkled with pistachios, alongside a vibrant, plant-based Sorbetto alla Pesca e Lavanda that captures the height of Northwest summer. You’ll also make crisp, homemade waffle cones (or bowls), a jewel-toned berry salad Macedonia di Frutti di Bosco, and softly whipped Panna Montata for the perfect finish.
These no-bake desserts can be prepared ahead of time, making them ideal for warm-weather entertaining. Both frozen desserts are naturally gluten-free and full of fresh, seasonal flavor — this is summer in a scoop, with an Italian accent.
