Precious sculptures of brittle with fruit sorbets, or elaborate molds filled with flavoured creams with flowers and spices adorned sumptuous banquets in honour of European notables and rulers. Today gelato is back on the table thanks to the skill of chefs, pastry chefs and Carpigiani technology.
Just like the Carpigiani, gelato making is indelibly tied to its tradition in Italy. JRE chefs also remain true to themselves, via modern food preparation honouring their cultural heritage, by respecting and promoting culinary identity and traditions from around the world.
