The world's favourite treat.
From Kulfi to Gelato, ice cream is loved globally, and most countries get through millions of tons a year at least. Sorbet, soft-scoop, granita, faloodeh (look it up), and rolled ice cream are all different ways of getting a brain freeze somewhere in the world. And eating an ice cream can be a very personal matter - your very own dessert on a stick - but it can also be a joyful experience shared among friends and family.
The Little Guide to Ice Cream is a joyful, fun, mouth-watering celebration of a sweet that has probably been around since the Ice Age (groan) and certainly as long as mankind has known ice. Alongside fun facts about the origins of ice cream and how it is manufactured, this little book contains amusing sayings, funny phrases, meaningful quotes and even a sprinkling of pearls of wisdom, all relating to those creamy blocks of ice that we love so much.
