ABOUT SORBET LIVING

What is Sorbet? According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Sorbet is pronounced /ˈsɔːbeɪ/ or /ˈsɔːbɪt/ and is usually fruit-flavoured ice served as a dessert or between courses as a palate.

There are many myths and legends of where sorbet may have originated from. From the Chinese to the Romans and through India and Persia to Paris, the indication is that the first sorbet was a frozen aromatic sweet drink.

The concept of freezing ice and natural fruit flavouring into sorbets or adding milk, eggs and sugar to create gelato was developed by the Italians into the favourite comfort food we know and love today across the world.

Sorbet Living takes its inspiration from these amazing sorbets and gelatos and the nature they derive from for its unique home and lifestyle brand: Be brave with colour!
