The Difference Between Ice Cream and Gelato


Ice cream and gelato may look similar, but they’re made differently. Ice cream usually has more cream and air, giving it a lighter texture. Gelato uses more milk, less fat, and is churned more slowly, resulting in a denser, silkier bite. Both are delicious—it just depends on whether you prefer light and fluffy or rich and smooth.

Why Ice Cream Melts the Way It Does


Ice cream melts faster than you might expect because it’s mostly frozen water. When it warms up, the ice crystals begin to break down and release liquid. Stabilizers—often natural ingredients like egg yolks or plant-based gums—help slow this process by holding water in place. That’s why some ice creams keep their shape longer than others.

What Makes Ice Cream Creamy?


Ice cream gets its smooth, creamy texture from a careful balance of ingredients and air. Milk fat adds richness, while sugar lowers the freezing point so ice cream doesn’t become rock solid. During churning, tiny air bubbles are mixed in, giving ice cream its light feel. The smaller the ice crystals, the creamier the scoop.

Creative Ways to Enjoy Ice Cream All Winter Long


If you’re craving ice cream on a chilly day, there are plenty of ways to make it feel extra comforting. Try turning your favorite scoop into an affogato by pouring hot espresso—or even hot cocoa—over vanilla or chocolate ice cream. You can also blend ice cream into warm desserts like molten lava cakes, bread pudding, or freshly baked cookies straight from the oven.

For a cozy twist, make “winter sundaes” with toppings like warm caramel, toasted nuts, spiced fruit compote, or crumbled ginger snaps. These warm add-ons create the perfect balance of temperature and texture. Ice cream doesn’t have to be a summertime treat—enjoying it in winter just opens the door to new flavors, new pairings, and a whole new level of indulgence.

Why Ice Cream Still Belongs on Your Winter Menu


Just because the temperature drops doesn’t mean your favorite frozen treat has to disappear. Winter actually brings out new ways to enjoy ice cream—especially when paired with warm, cozy flavors. Think hot brownies topped with a scoop of vanilla, warm apple pie with cinnamon ice cream, or a fresh waffle paired with peppermint swirl. The contrast between warm and cold makes each bite even more satisfying.

Winter is also when seasonal flavors shine. Eggnog, gingerbread, peppermint bark, and maple pecan all taste even richer during the colder months. So instead of skipping ice cream until summer, use the season as an excuse to experiment with flavors that only come around once a year.
