Over 50% of the apples we use are Granny Smith's, after all this is the only way we can avoid using aromas or colouring agents that have no place in our gelato-making philosophy. Enjoy this flavour with lemon or at home as a delicious dessert accompanied by a drop of Calvados.
It is by far the most widely consumed fruit: for every 100 kilograms of fruit consumed in Europe, 50 of them are apples! Many are the varieties on the market, about 250, even if the best-selling ones are about ten of them (the more famous ones are the Golden, Renetta, Starck and Pink Lady varieties). However, the one that gives the best results for the gelato is the green apple, or Granny Smith, because of its slightly sour aroma. We will soon be trying two of Piedmont's classic varieties, the Grigia di Torriana and the Buras, … and we will let you know about the results!
Yes, you read correctly. Just as you would do, we chose to make our sorbets and Sicilian granita with water from "Sparea®" Springs. This water is born in a unique niche in the Piedmontese Alps and is extremely light and pure - ideal for accompanying the fruit from the organic farm, Mura Mura®. We are a little crazy… but you can certainly taste the difference!
