Back then, blocks of ice from the Alps were carried back to the city of Rome. There, shavings were taken and mixed with fruits and fruit juices to produce a frozen dessert not unlike today's snow cones. Centuries later corn syrup and gelatin were added to reduce the ice crystal size in the freezing process to produce a smoother product. Today, Aglamesis Bros. produces Sorbets with the same attention to product quality that we use for our gourmet ice creams. Each batch of Sorbet is frozen in small 10-gallon quantities and flavored with only the freshest fruit, purest fruit concentrates, and gourmet extracts.
Sorbets are completely fat free and containing no milk products.
They can be used as a wonderful compliment to a variety of luxurious desserts, punches, or cocktails. They may also be used as a fashionable between course palate cleanser or an elegant after dinner stand alone dessert. Light and refreshing, they are the perfect choice for your next afternoon soiree.
