Celebrate this Ice Cream Day by enjoying a scoop or two of your favourite Pelwatte ice cream!

Who doesn’t love ice cream? Whether it’s just after your dentist’s appointment or to mend a broken heart, a special celebratory occasion or just another ordinary day, ice cream is simply the perfect treat no matter how old you are! And it most definitely requires no occasion to be enjoyed and savoured – as any time is ice cream time! Therefore, it is only fitting that something so loved by so many around the world, gets its own day of commemoration! World Ice Cream Day is a fun holiday that is observed on the third Sunday of July every year – courtesy of former US President Ronald Reagan who decided to decree a separate day to celebrate everyone’s favourite treat. This simple dairy product is one of the oldest types of desserts and comes in several flavours and variations today – ice cream sandwiches, ice cream cakes… the list goes on! Pelwatte Dairy – Sri Lanka’s leading local dairy manufacturer, prides itself in its scrumptious ice cream range which is produced entirely from 100% fresh milk with no added preservatives. Its economy grade ice cream range comes in an exciting assortment of flavours to choose from – such as Coffee with Cardamom, Coconut with Cardamom, Blueberry, Butterscotch, and Fruit & Nut, in addition to the age-old favourites like Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Banana and Mango. Furthermore, Pelwatte is soon expected to launch a whole new range of delectable flavours to its premium portfolio, such as Cream Cheese Sour Cherry, Cheesecake Strawberry, and Ferrero Rocher ice creams, while adding Faluda and Ginger Biscuit flavours to its economy range. “Little do people know that ice cream not only has nutritional value but is also an incredible source of energy – being rich in carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. All Pelwatte Dairy Ice Creams are produced using fresh dairy fat from superior quality milk – that is supplied by Pelwatte dairy farmers – in adherence with the SLS Standards for ice cream. So, there’s absolutely no need to hesitate when it comes to indulging in this sweet treat that’s truly fit for all ages!” states Akmal Wickramanayake, Managing Director of Pelwatte Dairy Industries, while adding: “We, at Pelwatte Dairies, wish everyone a joyous Ice Cream Day and are incredibly proud to be on this journey with our customers – celebrating life one scoop at a time!” Pelwatte Dairy ice creams serve as the perfect dessert and snack food. Comprising (by weight) 32% total solids, 8% fats, 16% sucrose, and 8% milk solids-not-fat, Pelwatte delivers ice cream that is healthy and creamy and perfectly satiates those cravings! After all, the heart wants what it wants…and sometimes it just needs ice cream! So, what are you waiting for?
