Amarena Cherry Ice Cream

The Richness of Amarena Cherries

These deeply flavorful cherries are known for their bold sweetness and juicy texture, making them a favorite in Italian desserts. Their vibrant dark red hue also adds a festive touch, making them a staple during Christmas.

Amarena cherries are primarily grown in Italy, where they are traditionally used in Panettone, a sweet holiday bread, and in classic Italian gelato. However, their distinctive taste has made them popular worldwide, used in pancakes, waffles, yogurt, ice cream, cocktails, and baked goods like muffins and cakes.

Their natural sweetness and color also make them a favorite garnish for desserts during the holiday season.

Hand-Layered for the Perfect Balance

At Kastbergs, we build our Amarena Cherry Ice Cream in layers to ensure optimal cherry distribution. Our process:

  1. First layer: A smooth base of creamy ice cream
  2. A generous spoonful of Amarena cherries, carefully mixed in by hand
  3. Repeated twice more, ensuring every scoop is packed with delicious cherry goodness

This meticulous method is also used for other Kastbergs favorites, such as:

  • Banana Split Ice Cream
  • Lemon White Chocolate Licorice Ice Cream
  • Salted Caramel Ice Cream
  • White Chocolate Ice Cream

The result? A luxuriously rich and perfectly balanced Amarena Cherry Ice Cream that delivers a true taste of Italian tradition, infused with Danish craftsmanship.
