World-renowned Artisan Italian gelato brand, Amorino, has debuted in Dubai at Souk Madinat Jumeirah, where it will serve up 22 flavours of gelato (ice cream) and sorbet that are sourced directly from Italy, free of preservatives, artificial flavours and enhancers.

Known for its signature rose shaped gelato cones adorned with handmade gelato-filled macarons, Amorino Dubai offers gelato and sorbet using carefully selected ingredients, including organic eggs and farm fresh milk.

Founded in 2002 by two Italian childhood friends, Cristiano Sereni and Paolo Benassi, Amorino’s first store was in the heart of Paris. Combining their two passions: Italy and gelato, the idea was to allow Parisians to discover the true taste of the finest Italian gelato recipes, said the Italian group in a statement.

Now with more than 255 shops worldwide across 18 countries, there are 12 cones sold every minute and 3,500,000 gelato-filled macarons made by hand every year at Amorino globally, it added.

Amorino Dubai customers will find gelato artists shaping gelatos into Amorino’s signature rose – with guests invited to order as many flavours as there are petals on the flower. They can opt to add a gelato-filled macaron to top their creation.

The outlet will serve up a wide-ranging gelato and sorbet flavours including stracciatella, pistachio, tiramisu, Madagascar vanilla bourbon, Alfonso mango, orange cinnamon, organic lemon, white chocolate blueberry, sorbet bio chocolate, hazelnut, coconut, and much more, in addition to limited edition seasonal flavours that will appear in-store for exclusive periods throughout the year.

Served in various sizes in a cone or a cup, Amorino also offers kids-sized portions, as well as takeaway tubs with 550ml and 1,100ml capacities.

Catering to all tastes and varied dietary requirements, Amorino boasts a completely gluten-free collection of gelato and sorbets, along with vegan sorbets and cones.

"Amorino Dubai has a range of other sweet treats on offer, as well as a wide range of hot and cold drinks like espresso frappè and affogato, plus the option to create ‘make-your-own’ gourmet milkshakes and sorbet drinks guaranteed to deliver a symphony of flavours," said a company spokesman.

"Our menu features sundaes comprising two gelato or sorbet flavours, a topping of choice, chocolate pearls and homemade whipped cream, sumptuous Belgian waffles and French crepes topped with gelato and a selection of toppings like crushed hazelnuts, caramel and pistachios," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
