That's what people always tell me though admittedly I'm pretty terrible at it. Ice crystals are the scourge of small ice cream & gelato makers. If you keep your formulas simple, you risk damaged product in transit. If you overdo it with the stabilizers, you get gummy products (which I hate).<br /><br />So yeah, I've had fresh pints of gelato fiasco (which is always excellent) and also a few wrecked pints of gelato fiasco which definitely took a lot of enjoyment out of the experience. Give them another shot if you can but feel free to wait for a sale or a fresh shipment.Dubba Scoopshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135130511349727532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-10208483868510842932017-06-11T23:43:05.508-04:002017-06-11T23:43:05.508-04:00Unfortunately the pint of "Gelato Fiasco Main...Unfortunately the pint of "Gelato Fiasco Maine Wild Blueberry Crisp" I purchased, was inundated throughout with ice crystals the size of coarse sea salt!!! The only thing this icy textural nightmare was missing, was the burnt electronics flavor of the dreaded freezer burn!!! Obviously it had melted and been refrozen, at least once, prior to purchase!!! Too bad, because they seem to have a solid hit here if only they can....well...keep it solid during shipping!!!!!Troylethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03577596292272122079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-66529531954638793282016-01-21T09:05:22.349-05:002016-01-21T09:05:22.349-05:00I just purchased this tonight in Ohio after readin...I just purchased this tonight in Ohio after reading your review...and I looked down at it was gone. OMG. This is my first pint in one sitting! I don't know what happened, haha. I'm pregnant so I guess BabyBun enjoyed it as well. I cannot believe I did that. It was so pleasant to look at, a very pretty dessert. The first bite was amazing. This is a very dense gelato which I appreciated. Overall I wish there were more blueberry. Talenti is typically the brand I go for due to familiarity. I'm going to try their Alphonsus Mango next. I am so sad I missed Pumpkin Pie. I couldn't decide on the last shopping trip and in a week it was gone. Back to GF, though I obviously enjoyed it, I will not repurchase due to a very overpowering "sugar" flavorNomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-384329692727378622.post-13100338566292065992013-12-20T14:24:13.306-05:002013-12-20T14:24:13.306-05:00I just listened to The Nosh Show and heard you tal...I just listened to The Nosh Show and heard you talk about the Strawberry Balsamic Gelato. I make this ice cream flavor all the time at the request of my children. We love it. You can't really taste vinegar but it just adds something to it.deeglohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11067646897599298950noreply@blogger.com
