Coffee sorbet is one of the most beloved variants of the famous and much-loved Italian dessert, the classic sorbet.

This cold dessert is considered the ancestor of fruit ice cream.

Fresh and tasty, it is the perfect dessert for any season.

Its origins date back to antiquity when Emperor Nero brought ice from the Apennines to Rome. In Sicily, the Arabs learned to use the snow of Etna mixed with sea salt to keep the temperature of the sorbet low during its processing.

The invention of the sorbet can be traced back to a fisherman from Aci Trezza, in Sicily, who created the prototype of the ice cream parlour using a mixture of sea salt and snow.

To prepare this delicious dessert, we suggest using Delizioso. An unmistakable espresso made from Brazilian, Asian and Central-South America Arabica beans providing soft and sweet aromatic notes.
