Tartufo is an exquisite Italian ice cream dessert that delivers a rich and indulgent experience. The name 'Tartufo' means 'truffle' in Italian, and it's typically presented as a small ball. Authentic Tartufo originates from the region of Pizzo, Calabria, and is made by forming two flavors of ice cream into a ball, with a fruit syrup or frozen fruit concentrate at the core, which is often surrounded by a layer of chocolate. The entire ball is then rolled in cocoa powder, finely chopped nuts, or chocolate shavings to resemble a truffle. This delectable dessert is often served at special occasions and is enjoyed by those who appreciate a sophisticated twist on traditional ice cream.
