Spumoni (sg.: spumone) is a molded gelato made with layers of different colors and flavors containing candied fruits and nuts, with the main three flavors being pistachio, cherry, and chocolate (or sometimes vanilla). Its origins date back to the end of the 19th century in the Italian city of Naples, Campania.

Etymology

Spumone comes from the Italian word spuma, meaning 'foam'.

In Italy

The Italian version of spumoni is often lightened with whipped cream. They are usually placed in molds especially made for spumoni, although other molds can be used.
