Too Pretty To Eat, These Haagen Dazs Christmas Creations
Ice creams are almost all the same right? They're creamy, sweet, melts in your mouth, and makes you fat. So, what gives an ice cream brand the right to call themselves premium?
They have all the right in the world to call themselves premium, if first and foremost, they use the finest ingredients in their recipes, such as cream fresh from the diary, macadamia nuts from Hawaii, vanilla beans from Madagascar, chocolate from Belgium, green tea modeled from those that are found in Japanese tea ceremonies for centuries. Even choosing a fruit as common as strawberries, took them six long years to find ones that are sweet enough to be worthy of their high-quality collection. But using the finest ingredients is not the only thing needed in up-keeping the reputation of being premium - creativity, innovation, techniques and branding is need as part of the equation as well.
How else do you think Häagen-Dazs achieve their slow-melting creaminess that gives you a lingering taste? By gently blending these finest ingredients sought out from the best countries all over the world, so as to minimize air. Free of stabilizers, preservatives, artificial flavorings, colorings and additives and there you have it, Häagen-Dazs Premium Ice Cream.
Since being founded in 1961 by Reuben Mattus, there is no stopping Häagen-Dazs. They've gone on to introduce ice cream mooncakes in 1992 in Hong Kong that revolutionized modern gift-giving, and right now, in the fall of 2010 in Singapore, they're introducing 6 new Christmas ice-cream creations for dine-in or as a premium gifts to celebrate life moments.
