Airy peach-raspberry ice cream is a refined dessert of Italian cuisine that combines the gentle sweetness of ripe peaches with the subtle tartness of raspberries. Historically, Italians are famous for their frozen treats, and this recipe pays homage to the tradition of gelato with an airy texture thanks to whipped cream. Soft fruit puree combined with light meringue creates a weightless structure of ice cream that melts in your mouth. The bright aroma of peaches harmonizes with the berry notes of raspberries, while fresh fruit slices make the presentation especially festive. This ice cream is perfect for summer relaxation and will adorn any festive table.
