Hackney Gelato has announced the launch of a limited-edition gingerbread-flavoured gelato in the UK. The new flavour contains a hint of cinnamon and clove blended with cold pressed organic ginger juice and topped with caramelised biscuit crumble. Hackney Gelato's co-founder, Enrico Pavoncelli, said: “We wanted to capture the depth and warmth of this combination of ginger and spices but bring out the complexity in a creative, gentle way. We love the result – a creamy, warming gelato that is above all totally different and delizioso.” Hackney Gelato's gingerbread flavour will be available at the online grocery retailer Ocado, until the end of the year, for an RRP of £5.49 per 460ml tub.
