Christmas Cake 🎄🍦- this is an absolute winner. Little chunks of icing and marzipan at the end of the churn for the full experience in each mouthful. Also I learned while resting the mix that some dried fruits float and others sink.....🤔 #gelALto
Hi everybody! We are building a solar-powered circular economy, intercepting plastic waste, and regenerating the nation’s coffee forests at scale.
See the link in my bio for the full story, and to buy unique coffee xmas gifts that will bring joy to your friends while also creating 20+ years of much needed income for coffee growing families.
Please share, and tag a friend who’d find this interesting! Maybe you know a cafe, roaster, or action-taker who cares about sustainability?
Thank you to everyone supporting this work, both on the ground and from afar!
November: I didn't really take many pictures in November but spent a lot of time with @mattgraylee and the @rawmaterial.coffee team finalising the Kickstarter phase of 11 Million trees. Immensely proud to be a small part of this and excited for friends inside and out of the coffee industry to be involved. Please check it out, link is in my bio. 🌳
Lapsang Souchong- Making a proper Leche Quemada ('burnt milk' a Mexican classic) is maybe my white whale of ice cream making and I don't think I'm ready for it yet. I also love Lapsang Souchong tea and thought it would give a similar smokey vibe but with more of a warming winter feel. Very happy with how it turned out, good balance of richness to smokiness. Can only think a tot of whisky might have rounded it off perfectly! 💨🍦#gelALto
Strawberry Cereal Milk 🥣
Minor Figures Very Berry Oat Milk infused with half a box of Rice Krispies and then some Crunchy Nut Cornflakes mixed in the churn for good measure. It's a sweet one, maybe too sweet I think V2 needs to be Frosties and regular whole milk🍦#gelALto
Boujee Rum and Raisin aka Pedro Ximenez and Mixed Fruit. Basically I started making a Christmas cake (to later become ice cream) and soaked way too much mixed fruit in sherry -turns our Mary Berry's cake size calculator is NOT reliable. Also turns out this is how you make Rum and Raisin, so here we are. Tastes great! 🍦#gelALto
