Artisan gelato: a great snack for kids
Good artisan gelato can be the perfect solution if you’re looking for an afternoon snack for your kids. The rise of childhood obesity is well-documented, and more and more parents are looking for healthy but tasty alternatives to classic packaged snacks or other fatty foods.
The ingredients of artisan gelato are full of nutritional substances which aid the regeneration of cells, such as the proteins in milk which are rich in essential amino acids, and are good for people of all ages. Furthermore, artisan gelato contains considerable amounts of Vitamin B2, calcium, phosphorus, mineral salts and carbohydrates, and the latter are particularly helpful when it comes to restoring energy levels after sport or physical activity in general.
Artisan gelato is a balanced, complete food, as has been shown by the studies carried out by a team of experts from the University of Milan, which analyzed several gelato flavors, both cream-based and fruit-based. The study showed that compared to packaged snacks, chocolate spread or popcorn, 100g of artisan gelato contains fewer calories, and many more nutritional substances.
Naturally, it’s important to choose top quality raw materials and semi-manufactured products for artisan gelato. This means the gelato will be a nourishing snack, which is easy to digest, not too high in calories and without contraindications (unless kids suffer from particular food allergies). Kids can enjoy eating it all year round.
