Magic Sunset gelato
Via Flickr:
While the packaging looks pretty, I still can't see the connection between a name like Magic Sunset and vanilla & peach gelato. But then maybe I'm confusing this with Tequila Sunrise in a highball.
The only thing magical about this was the price (1.99€). Semi-frozen whipped cream with peach flavoring. Is there no brand out there that does this combo right? Or do I have to get my own peaches and make it myself?

I was put off this by the ad alone - and the one with stars is even worse! Something tells me not to buy it on principle.
If you've got peaches and the time, homemade might be your best bet! :-)
I like my ice cream but the name of the drink has got me wanting to try one:)
Girl, I'm sure anything you make yourself is a hundred times better than store bought--ice cream included! If you do make it, post photos please! Ice cream photos always make me drool! :)
I am thinking you need to get those apricots (or were they peaches?!) off of your neighbor's tree and do this one yourself :)
Do it! I think you would be much more satisfied with the results with fresh fruits and fresh cream. Everything fresh - the Italian way!

casalba - I tried the one with the stars. Notte Stellata, what a mistake! I did not taste anything macadamia nut in there and the whole thing just screamed Notte Sbagliata.
Saretta - come August, I hope to find some really good peaches at the fruttivendolo. The ones in the supermarket are always so bland tasting.
TK - the worst part was the song that kept playing over in my head!
Bella - that may be true but sometimes...well sometimes a gal needs a break from having to do it all. Perhaps I was asking too much for a peaches & cream flavor?
Kat - teehee...you have a point there. It's either the birds or me to get to those apricots first.
Wanderfull T - your request is my command!
Personally, anything made with either peaches or mangoes with cream is best done at home as opposed to bought from a store. But, that's just me.
Midge - the trick is to find those excellent-tasting peaches or mangoes. I refuse to use fruit that has been picked too early and allowed to ripen in a storage house. How I wish we had mangoes like in the tropics...mango and vanilla is my favorite combo.
