Bindi Semifreddo Caffe

TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

The Bindi Semifreddo Caffé is a coffee semifreddo ice cream with a vanilla-flavored core, and topped with a crushed coffee sponge. It has a bitter coffee flavor balanced so beautifully by the creamy vanilla. A little tower of tastiness, this is the perfect coffee lover’s dessert.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

The Bindi Semifreddo Caffé is perfect on its own. The coffee flavor is very pronounced, so there’s really no need to pair it with a cup of coffee (but you are absolutely free to, if you want to highlight the coffee flavor more). Serve it for dessert, to cap off a rich hearty meal wonderfully.

RIDING A BIKE TO SUCCESS

Attilio Bindi, a Tuscan restaurateur, moved to Milan with his family in 1946. He opened a small pastry shop on one of Milan’s historic streets, Via Larga. This would be the birth of Bindi. His desserts were delicious and used quality ingredients, so it was no surprise that they grew in popularity quickly. Attilio Bindi eventually became the exclusive supplier of dessert to some of Milan’s finest restaurants, and he delivered them personally on a humble bicycle. Today, Bindi desserts can be found all over the world, and their deliciousness and their quality has never wavered.
