"Unleash your creativity to celebrate together but distant
In 2021, on the occasion of its ninth celebration, Gelato Day becomes virtual to allow everyone, gelato makers and gelato lovers, to celebrate together.
In fact, since 2013, Artisan Gelato has been celebrated every 24 March: on the only European Day dedicated to a food product. This recognition was obtained thanks to the commitment and passion of the Artglace gelato makers, and driven by this same passion, despite the difficulties of many parlours to open on March 24, we have sharpened our creativity to find a way to celebrate together same.
Numerous individual initiatives have been undertaken in these 8 years to enhance Artisan Gelato, often with great benefits.
The solution adopted for Gelato Day 2021 is to organize a Video Contest, in which Gelato makers from all over Europe can participate: distant but united.
What does it foresee?
The making of a video, lasting up to 90 seconds, featuring the Taste of the Year, the Spanish "Mantecado", whose recipe can be downloaded from the website www.gelato-day.com.
The evaluated parameters will be:
1) originality of the presentation,
2) video quality,
3) illustration of the production process of the "Mantecado" flavor,
4) aesthetics and decoration of the tray
All videos that comply with the criteria indicated in the regulation will be published on the official page, a unique showcase to be viewed and known by an audience of international experts.
It being understood that the competition is aimed at European artisan gelato makers, videos from non-European countries will still be welcome and published.
I look forward to your active collaboration and widespread dissemination of the initiative, to make Gelato Day 2021 unforgettable.
