When it comes to Italian frozen desserts, there are a few that always come out on top. Have you ever craved a nice, creamy frozen treat after a hearty pasta meal? Well, it might be time to stop by one of the best Amherst restaurants, Pastamore! We have an extensive selection of Italian meals, whether you’re visiting for lunch or dinner. Now, let’s get into the fun stuff. What’s the difference between gelato and sorbetto?
Gelato
So, you like ice cream. But there’s a similar type of frozen dessert that takes it to the next level: gelato. Gelato is different from other types of frozen desserts between it has a lower fat and air content, making it significantly more dense and rich. The first modern form of gelato can be dated back to the late 1600s when an Italian chef opened a cafe in Paris. There, he introduced gelato to the world (which we are all very thankful for!).
Here at Pastamore, we offer three different types of delicious gelato: chocolate, strawberry and, vanilla. Try it next time you’re visiting our Amherst restaurant!
Sorbetto
Not everyone can enjoy eggs or dairy products due to allergies and health reasons. Well, you can still enjoy frozen desserts here at Pastamore! Sorbetto is not made with egg or dairy products. It’s simply made from sugary syrups or fruit juices and water! But what makes sorbetto special is that it still has a similar texture to ice cream because it’s processed in a similar way. So, if you’re looking for a guilt-free ice cream alternative, sorbetto might be the perfect way to finish off dinner.
Here at Pastamore, we offer two special sorbetto items on our menu. Try either our frozen peach sorbetto served in a peach shell, or our frozen lemon sorbetto served in a lemon shell. You’ll want to come back for more!
