In recent years, the artisanal gelato sector has seen a growing focus on practical and innovative formats that combine taste and convenience of consumption.
Among these, gelato on a stick and ice cream sandwiches represent an excellent alternative to traditional cones and tubs, attracting an ever-growing audience.
A perfect specialty for a sweet and delicious break.
In the era of street food, gelato on a stick and ice cream sandwiches have become trendy again: a creative twist on the traditional Italian cone and tub.
From "paleteria mexicana" to the classic gelato on a stick, the opportunity to offer new products that satisfy the tastes of both adults and children is vast. In the past, it was mostly children who were drawn to the colors and assortments of these products, perfect for a fresh and genuine snack. Now, the offering is wide, and even adults are being won over by ice cream sandwiches filled with Italian gelato and gelato on a stick.
There are specialized machines on the market that allow for precise and rapid packaging of these delicious creations. Silicone molds are ideal for shaping freshly churned gelato, while a blast chiller helps stabilize its structure by quickly lowering the temperature. It's essential to display gelato on a stick in a separate showcase, with a temperature lower than traditional gelato, to ensure perfect preservation and a better consumption experience.
Artisanal gelato on a stick retains the softness and pleasantness of traditional gelato, with aromas and flavors that are gradually released to delight the consumer's palate.
Gelato on a stick can be made from fruit or cream. In the first case, the percentage of fruit can range from 20% to 70% depending on the type used, ensuring a refreshing and natural product. For creams, the possibilities are endless: from classics like chocolate, vanilla, and pistachio, to more original combinations. Both variations can be enriched with coatings of melted chocolate and decorations like dried fruit, coconut flakes, crunchy pralines, and other customizations, allowing space for creativity.
The ice cream sandwich is a tasty and versatile alternative, suitable for all needs: from large cookies, ideal for being personalized with fillings and handmade coatings, to mini-size versions, perfect for a quick snack without sacrificing the pleasure of a good gelato.
Thanks to their practicality, gelato on a stick and ice cream sandwiches are increasingly becoming flagship products in the artisanal gelato sector, gaining favor with a diverse audience and responding to new consumption trends focused on quality and convenience.
