Editorial Review:
Gelato may be Italian for ice cream, but The Ultimate Frozen Dessert Book is American for the sequel to the best-selling Ultimate Ice Cream Book. In the ninth installment of the wildly popular Ultimate series, powerhouse cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough churn out more than 500 recipes and variations for all kinds of frosty treats, including a wide range of gelato, granita, sherbet, and semifreddo. And there's a whole chapter on cakes, pies, and other treats made with ice cream or gelato, whether home-made or store-bought! Bruce and Mark prove that when it comes to frozen desserts, ice cream is only the tip of the iceberg! Together, these two books make the ultimate compendium on frozen treats.

Move over, Giada, that's all I can say. OK, so they're not Italian. But it was the most silky thing I've ever eaten. I actually made a trial run of it one day when my parents were coming over and ended up eating the whole batch by the end of the day....more info
best book on the subject:
i bought this book because i have the authors' other book on ice cream (the ultimate ice cream book) and i've used it faithfully for a number of years. then i read a review of this book in the new york times. they said this book had some really great recipes including a frozen lemon souffle. i was surprised by the differences in the gelati recipes in this book and the ice cream recipes in the other book. these have more milk, less cream, and more eggs. they're custard based desserts, not ice cream. so, if...more info
