Among the desserts of summer, the first place of the podium is possible to give to everyone’s favorite – ice cream. From ice cream to sorbets, from classic to modern …

Before the advent of modern methods of cooking the ice cream was considered as luxurious delicacy, because the technology was rather time-consuming and painstaking.

And the first published ice cream recipe dates back to 1718 year, in the collection of Mary Eales recipes, who released it in London.

And it’s difficult to say something exact about homeland of ice cream. Ice with fruit was served in China, then found records of King Solomon, which refers to the use of frozen juice.

And I always thought that the most delicious ice cream is made in Italy. Basically, the way it is. While in Milan, sitting on a strict diet, every day I struggled with it, passing near gelatos.
