Hi !! Briefly wanted to write a little note and let everyone know what I have been up to recently. The summer went by so quickly and I was fortunate enough to have great staff, more flavors to offer, and an improvement in my gelato production schedule that freed up lots of my time!!

A few days ago I closed the shop and drove to Eliot, Maine. I went to meet Ronnie, Marty and Julie, the wonderful folks at BevTech and watch an introductory gelato workshop given by Donna Domiano. The  class got to learn about gelato production, equipment, decoration, and the latest trends in the gelato industry. Donna also gave demos about making verrines and shared recipies using the Mixybar products and the MixyCafe syrups. I got some great new ideas for cold beverages and espresso drinks. Everyone got hands on experience making, pouring and extracting the gelato and of course tasting!

It was great too see so many folks intrested in gelato and really enjoying the taste of Fabbri. Some of the receipes from the class are posted on the Fabbri Receipe section.

Our season is starting to wind down and the gelato sales are slowing but hot coffee and hot chocolates are starting to fly out the door.  I will be posting the next i Dream of Gelato/Fabbri article shortly and will let you know about fall weather menu items you will want to add.
