Spring is in the air and nothing heralds the start of the new season like flowers and Easter bunnies!
A clever and super-cute serving suggestion for your spring gelato flavours are these gorgeous chocolate flower pots from the Dobla decor range. Available in orange, green, white, dark, pink and blue, these coloured white chocolate flowerpots stand 55mm tall with a diameter of 62mm, making them the perfect carrier for a scoop of ice cream.
Our gelato & ice cream technician Steve Carrigan says: “Why make life difficult for yourself when there are so many brilliant products available on the market? These gelato-filled flowerpots are a stunning addition to any spring menu and literally take minutes to pull together.
