There’s a berry-good chance you’re missing out on one of the most exciting celebrations of the year! Naturals’ Berry Festival is back – an annual tradition that brings together the finest berry flavours from around the world. This special menu is available for a limited time, beginning every February and continuing only until stocks last. If you enjoy berry-based ice creams, this is the perfect opportunity to explore something new and different.
The Berry Festival is a tribute to berries that are known for their balance of sweetness and tartness. These flavours are created using just three simple ingredients – milk, sugar, and seasonal fruits – staying true to Naturals’ philosophy of keeping things simple. What makes this festival stand out is the selection of berries, sourced from regions known for their berries from across the world, to bring out the best possible taste.
From farms around the world to your scoop
Each berry has its own journey before making its way into your ice cream. This year’s festival brings together flavours from both India and international locations, known for growing these berries in the best conditions. Here’s where the berries featured in this year’s festival come from:
- Blueberries from the USA: These berries bring a pleasant mix of sweet and tangy notes. They are known for their soft texture and distinctive taste, making them a popular choice for ice cream.
- Raspberries from Serbia: Slightly tart with just the right amount of sweetness, Serbian raspberries are widely recognized for their bold flavour and smooth consistency.
- Gooseberries from Uttar Pradesh: This Indian-grown berry has a zesty, citrus-like taste. Sourced from farms in Uttar Pradesh, it adds a distinct touch to the festival’s range of flavours.
- Mulberries from Maharashtra: Fundamentally sweet with a mild, well-rounded finish, these berries from Maharashtra bring depth to the ice cream.
- Blackcurrants from Poland: Rich in flavour with a slightly sharp edge, Polish blackcurrants add a strong and lasting taste that makes them a standout in the festival.
A festival that’s a treat for the senses
Berry ice creams not only taste delicious but also look visually appealing with their innate colours. The shades range from soft pinks and purples to deep blues, creating an eye-catching pastel palette. Whether it’s the soft hue of raspberries or the deep violet of blackcurrants, these colours emerge from the world around us.
Each scoop has a smooth texture with just the right number of berries, ensuring that the finest characteristics of the berries shine through. The careful blending of these ingredients makes every flavour a unique experience.
Why shouldn’t you miss it?
Since these berries are sourced in limited quantities, the Berry Festival is only available for a short time. Once the berries are gone, these flavours will no longer be available until next year. Whether you prefer a strong, tangy taste or a mild, sweet finish, there is something for everyone at this festival.
If you’re someone who enjoys trying different berry-based flavours, this is the best time to visit your nearest Naturals outlet and experience the seasonal berry selection before it disappears. Hurry, before it’s too late!
