recipe for Princess' hazelnut ice cream?

[happy guy]

Hello,
Staff encouraged me to write to Princess Cruise Lines for the recipe however I never received a response. Hazelnut is one of the ice cream flavors served for dessert at the dining room, supposedly made on board.
I'd love to have the recipe.

Most cruise lines purchase their ice cream. They don't like to admit to not making everything on board from scratch.

I would guess that they use a product called gianduja(pronounced john-du-ya) which is a blend of milk or dark chocolate and roasted hazelnuts.
It has the consistance of peanut butter and just melts in your mouth. We use this product when making a hazelnut belgian chocolate mixing the gianduja with cream and chocolate to make a delicious melt in your mouth center. You can buy it in fine chocolate stores.

If you have the princess cookbook on page 218 I would experiment with the chocolate rum ice cream and use gianduja in place of the chocolate and instead of the rum use frangelico or replace it with another 1/4 cup of milk or cream.

Good luck let me know how it turns out.

I remain in Chocolate

Princess does make all of their Ice Cream on board ship! I'm not sure which address you checked into but try this: 24200 Magic Mountain Parkway, Santa Clarita, CA 91355-1283
