| Gelato Nero (Black). I asked them what flavor the black gelato was, but they couldn't understand... Maybe it was ikasumi? |
|
They called this Magic Ice Cream. It is similar in concept to Cold Stone or Marble Slab, but they start with an almost liquid base and actually mix in ingredients as it freezes so it is mixed together very well. |
|
I just saw this in a hallway. I don't think it's real... |
|

|
 |
| A wide variety of exotic soft serve flavors like wasabi, kinako (soybean), yogurt and others that I couldn't read. |

This was an interesting Turkish ice cream. They freeze large portions of it in a barrel and knead it with a long metal mixer. This method gives it more elasticity allowing him to stretch it into long strings for show. Here you can see the server has extracted the entire batch of ice cream on the end of his mixer (center) and after serving a single scoop, he dips it in a chocolate fountain. |
