Eggless Clementine Gelato with Salted caramel Flakes

Gelato is Italian icecream, this frozen dessert ressembles very much like icecream as most of the ingredients for making gelato goes almost for icecream. Gelato is prepared with milk,cream,sugar,fruits or nut puree as main ingredients as they are prepared by heating process. Eggs are used in this Italian icecream for giving a smooth texture to Gelato. But i tried making mine as eggless. Icecream maker is not need for making this homemade gelato, yes you can prepare gelato by using your blender. Since my theme for this week's blogging marathon is Summer specials,i couldnt resist to post this fruity gelato with salted caramel flakes i bought recently from our weekend trip.

Clementines, this vitamin c rich fruits were sitting in my fruit basket since few days, as none want to have it either in salads or just like as segments, i finished them making this super fresh gelato as eggless ones with caramel flakes, the addition of caramel flakes makes this gelato more interesting and we loved having them after our lunch. A simple and very refreshing dessert to enjoy while the weather is hot outside.Since homemade icecreams or gelatos are preservative free, they can be consumed without any guilt.Whipping cream is important here, dont skip it for any reason.Check out the Blogging Marathon page for the other Blogging Marathoners doing BM#41.
