gelato

Many regions claim to be the home of gelato (ice cream), but in fact it seems to have spread from Sicily, after being introduced there by the Arabs. Indeed ice cream is believed to have originated from the ancient sorbet - from the Arabic word "sherbet" - which was invented by them to combat the searing heat of their desert home and taken by them to Sicily, where local ingredients were added. Sicilian ice cream is still renowned today, both for the exotic flavors ranging from mulberry to prickly pear and for the way in which it is served, in cones or cups but also sandwiched in the middle of a brioche. Throughout Italy, ice cream is served not in scoops but with a spatula, with the result that the size of the portions varies and depends on the whim of the person who is serving.
