a piece of history in the ice cream parlor

The origins of the soft ice cream go back to the 1950s when it came to Germany from the USA. Unlike conventional ice cream, soft ice is served at higher temperatures of about -6 degrees, which contributes to its special consistency. The MDR emphasizes that the first ice cream parlors in Germany were opened in Hamburg in 1799 and the popularity of softis has been increasing since then.

GDR soft ice is firmer and more productive than its western relatives. The special mixture plays a crucial role and many cafes rely on traditional ingredients. They often use mixtures of manufacturers such as Komet, which were already known for their high -quality softie products in the GDR. A touch of emphasis on the old craftsmanship is what customers appreciate - regardless of whether they are nostalgic or just want to enjoy a good bit of ice cream.

The return of the soft ice cream is more than just a trend - it is a tribute to a special flavor and a piece of German history that makes many people smile!
