This year, Talenti Gelato & Sorbetto is adding to its unique Layers line by introducing the Bakery Collection. It includes three brand-new baking-inspired flavors: Chocolate Chip Cookie Batter, Italian Tiramisu and Snickerdoodle Cookie.
To celebrate their debut, Talenti is partnering with world-renowned pastry chef Dominique Ansel, the brand’s first-ever Chef Ambassador, to create a first-of-its-kind, elevated dessert experience: The Dipped Whisk.
Crafted with the ingredients found across the new Talenti Layers Bakery Collection, the limited-edition Dipped Whisk is a handheld dessert served atop a keepsake golden whisk. Chef Dominique Ansel was inspired by the elements within the Bakery Collection and by the nostalgic experience of licking batter from a whisk while baking.
Each layer of The Dipped Whisk evokes one of the flavors found within the Chocolate Chip Cookie Batter, Italian Tiramisu and Snickerdoodle Cookie Bakery Collection products:
- Madagascan Vanilla Bean Gelato
- Rich espresso fudge sauce
- Crunchy stacks of shortbread, chocolate and snickerdoodle cookies
All layers are nestled inside a crisp vanilla wafer cone and dipped in a light and creamy vanilla Chantilly for an elegant finish.
The Dipped Whisk will be available exclusively at Dominique Ansel Bakery in New York City for one weekend only, from Friday, March 28 to Sunday, March 30. A limited supply of 100 hand-crafted Dipped Whisks will be available for free from 8 am daily, on a first-come first-served basis.
“I’m so excited to partner with Talenti to celebrate the launch of their new Layers Bakery Collection. I am so impressed by Talenti’s dedication to quality and authenticity in flavor, and more importantly, their passion for creativity and innovation,” says Dominique Ansel. “When they challenged me to develop a dessert inspired by the Bakery Collection, I wanted to create a new and unique way to experience gelato. I was inspired by the nostalgia people have for licking cookie batter or cream from a whisk while baking, so we constructed the dessert on top of a whisk. And this is just the beginning. There are more innovative, creative treats to come as I continue collaborating with Talenti as the brand’s new Chef Ambassador.”
“The new Talenti Bakery Collection transforms the flavors of baked desserts into indulgent frozen experiences using the unique Layers technology from Talenti, and there’s no better partner than Chef Dominique Ansel to help bring it to life,” says Bentley King, US head of marketing operations at Unilever. “His mastery of layering flavors and textures perfectly complements Talenti’s signature Layers, making this collaboration a seamless blend of artisanal baking and slow-crafted gelato. Chef Ansel and Talenti share a steadfast commitment to creativity, innovation and craftsmanship, and I can’t wait for our fans to get a taste.”
The new Talenti Layers Bakery Collection is available now in grocery stores nationwide.
