Ice Cream in Turkey

Tim and I flew into Cappadocia, Turkey yesterday.

We had a layover in Istanbul, which we spent in a café with free wireless.

At the café, Mado, we ate a delicious goats-milk chocolate ice cream. The texture was slightly different from ordinary ice cream; it was slightly chewy and significantly stringy.



Mado's ice cream tastes very natural and flavorful.

I'll leave you with an entertaining description of their ice cream (taken from their company website):

The adventure of “real ice cream” is 300- year adventure of ice cream starting with Karsambac made of molasses, honey and fruit extracts added to snow. The name of ice cream combines with a city in this adventure. Kahramanmaras did not only give its name to the ice cream... With its consistency and special aroma, it gives the secret of taste in K. Maras ice -cream. The milk of goats feeding with wild orchid flowers, thymus and keven greening in plateaus close to clouds in Ahir Mountain and sahlep collecting from bulbs of these orchids gently.
