The designation is accorded by the Italian Chamber of Commerce, a government organization, confirming that every step of the gelato-making process meets or exceeds standards approved by official Italian auditors and experts. They review the process on a yearly basis.
Princess claims to be the first and only outside Italy to have the 'Ospitalità Italiana' gelato certification.
Aboard Discovery Princess, Enchanted Princess and Sky Princess
The line handcrafts its gelato with Italian-certified ingredients and equipment each day in the pastry kitchens onboard the line’s three newest ships, Discovery Princess, Enchanted Princess and Sky Princess. Corporate pastry chef Eric Le Rouzic trained with Italian chefs at the Gelato Carpigiani University in Bologna and the Gelato Comprital Atheneum in Milano to master the art.
Princess uses gelato machines by Carpigiani, and the gelato display cases were produced in Italy by expert craftsmen.
Flavors, toppings and combinations
A variety of flavors are offered, from fior di latte (vanilla) and cioccolato (chocolate), to tiramisu, Nutella and caramello salato (salted carmel). The menu also has dairy-free, fat-free sorbets and sugar-free gelato. There is a choice of toppings, and combinations include 'affogato' (with liqueur) or 'coppe' creations like nutellone (Nutella gelato, Nutella and whipped cream) or amaretto and peaches (amaretto gelato, fresh sliced peaches and meringue drops).
