1

Grape Infused Gelato

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of grape juice, 1 cup of heavy cream, and 1/2 cup of sugar. Stir well until the sugar has dissolved completely. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once it reaches a soft-serve consistency, transfer the gelato to a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.

Gossamer Grape Wrap

Take a fresh, seedless grape and gently peel it, keeping the skin intact. Place the peeled grape on a piece of plastic wrap. Repeat this process with several more grapes until you have a small grape cluster. Wrap the plastic wrap around the grape cluster, forming a tight bundle. Place the grape cluster in the freezer for about 30 minutes or until firm.

Creating the Gelato Wrap

Remove the frozen grape cluster from the freezer and unwrap it from the plastic wrap. Carefully slice the frozen grapes into thin slices using a sharp knife. Arrange the grape slices on a flat surface, overlapping them slightly. This will create a delicate 'gossamer' effect. Once you have the desired shape, carefully transfer the grape wrap onto a plate.

Serving the Gossamer Grape Gelato Wrap
