With each passing season, we are given a new take on the humble avocado. The millennial diet staple has housed hipster barista lattes [1], aided us in our beauty regimes [2], and even taken on the form of an Easter egg [3]. Its next iteration? Gelato.
Yes, we're familiar with avocado ice cream [4], but in this case, the dessert is visually identical to a halved avocado — complete with a edible nut butter stone. The "Avolato," which launched exclusively at Selfridges, is the product of Snowflake Luxury Gelato [5], inventors of the £99 Billionaire's Soft Serve [6]. While its latest innovation is a little more affordable, it's no less Instagrammable and, most importantly, delicious, made up of 60 percent creamy hass avocado.
The frozen dessert is high in protein, vegan-friendly, and free of dairy, gluten, and refined sugar. Along with your diet, you won't have to worry about the planet, either. The Avolato sits in a real avocado skin and is served on a bamboo tray, both of which are 100 percent biodegradable. Already salivating? The Avolato is available from the Snowflake gelato counter in Selfridges London for £9.50.
