SunLive Competition


If you are looking for a frozen dessert that encompasses Italian passion, creativity, quality and elegance, try the new Bindi range at Bel Mondo.

The Bindi story begins with a little bakery on one of Milano’s most historic streets – ‘Via Larga’ in 1946.

Founder Attilio Bindi, a Tuscan restaurateur, driven by his passion for sweets, was the first to revolutionise the dessert industry in Italy with his fast delivery service of restaurant quality desserts and cakes.
This service allowed the restaurants in Milan to have their favourite zuccotto – a traditional Tuscan dessert – within two hours, delivered by bicycle.

Thus began the Bindi company, which now produces hundreds of products including tiramisu, bombas, cannoli, gelato, cakes, croissants, sorbettis and pastries – all specially frozen and shipped around the world.

These deserts are perfect for Chirstmas entertaining. The Passionfruit dessert came in beautiful glass (that you could then use for your favourite beverage). The layers of Italian cream with passionfruit sauce and pistachio granita on cranberry jelly was a flavour explosion. They complimented each other and yet stood out in their own right as an individual layer.

The Tartufo Caffe – a truffle with coffee ice cream and liquid coffee coated in meringue and rolled in coffee and chocolate granules – was delicious. Small, but extremely filling, the coffee flavour is distinctive, but not overpowering. The dessert is a sweet, soft and fluffy delight.

 

Other Bel Mondo desserts:

Tartufo Bianco – truffle with zabaione, coffee and meringue.

Tartufo Classico – truffle with zabaione, chocolate and hazelnut.

Tiramisu single serve with zabaione cream, coffee and sponge cake. 

Semifreddo al torroncino – ice cream with nougat and hazelnut praline.
