Belgium is known in the USA for its excellent chocolate, beer, and waffles; but not everyone knows about its rich tradition in making ice cream. In almost every Belgian town, there is a Crèmerie (ice-cream store) that has perfected making ice cream the traditional way. In Belgium, gelato shops typically limit themselves to only four flavors: vanilla, chocolate, coffee, and strawberry. These ice cream flavors are made with exceptional quality and are very creamy.
In the 1920's, Italian cuisine made its debut in Belgium with world-famous pizza and gelato (Italian Ice-Cream). The Italian gelato chefs have always been fascinated with the quality of Belgian chocolate, especially in the excellence of the chocolate pralines. These praline flavors with caramelized hazelnuts can be found in Italian gelato recipes made with Belgian chocolate, which go back as far as we know to the year of 1926. Only natural ingredients are used in these recipes, which makes this gelato so unique. The attractive appearance, smooth texture, and exquisite flavors are individual to each store in Italy. Gelato is not exclusively a treat, but a true art. Gelato is usually offered in dozens of flavors.
