Champion: Hackney Gelato Banana, Caramel & Pecan
Made with 30% real banana purée, fresh milk and caramelised pecans that retain their crunch, this Hackney Gelato is churned slowly to give a smoother texture and greater depth of flavour. The recipe was delivered alongside top London chefs to deliver a nostalgic, grown-up version of the banana flavoured ice cream many remember fondly from childhood.
It couldn’t have been a bigger hit with our judges. “Absolutely incredible. Amazing flavours with premium quality ingredients that 100% delivered on taste and texture,” said one. They all loved the sense of indulgence. As another judge put it: “Banana flavour finally done right.”
