Italian ice cream machine: a perfect gelato for dessert

Anyone who has ever tasted a real Italian gelato will never ever taste another ice cream. What is it that makes an Italian gelato taste so much better than other ice creams? We tell you the secret. Three things that are different. First of all, Italian gelato has an extremely creamy substance. If you think this is because it contains more cream you are wrong. Italian ice cream has only about five percent of fat whereas other ice cream contains around ten percent. The percentage of cream is lower in Italian ice cream but at the same time it contains more whole milk.

But it is not only the ingredients that make the difference. An Italian ice cream machine churns the ice cream more slowly. So it becomes denser and it contains less air. Whereas other ice creams contain up to 50 percent air, Italian gelato has only about 25 percent.

Americans love their ice cream deeply frozen. Italians consume it at a slightly higher temperature. That is why the flavors are more intense.
