Ice Cream Academy
In an attempt to spread the joy of ice cream science we have created an ice cream school right next to our ice cream shop in Østerbro. The courses are held at Rosenvængets Allé 7b, 2100 København Ø and signing up by e-mail or in the shop is a prerequisite.
Since the aim is to be internationally known in the field of ice cream, this text is in English.
