In Milan, gelateria creates 'Covid-19, the cure' flavor to exorcise the virus

The creator: “In the neighborhood, there were many victims. Ice cream is not the solution, but it can cheer you up.”

Tindara, head of the ice cream shop Dolce Passione in the vicinity of Milan , talks about his idea to create a flavor that could help alleviate people's stress in quarantine prison.

“We think about the flavor of “Covid-19 La Cura” to exorcise the fear that was created in this country, where we had many victims, and the virus circulated among our fellow citizens. We know very well – continues Tindara – that ice cream can't really cure Coronavirus, but we wanted to bring a smile of those who can finally enjoy ice cream again. We finished the first tray weighing more than 4 kilos in a few hours and orders started pouring in from then on, also via social media,” said Tindara.
