About Glace au citron

Glace au citron, or lemon ice cream, is a refreshing French dessert made primarily from lemon juice, sugar, cream, and often egg yolks. Known for its tangy and creamy blend, it offers a balance of sweetness and citrusy zest that highlights its European origin. This treat is rich in vitamin C, thanks to the fresh lemon juice, which supports immune health and acts as a natural antioxidant. However, it is also calorie-dense due to the inclusion of sugar and cream, making moderation key for those mindful of their dietary intake. Traditional recipes avoid artificial additives, staying true to its classic, wholesome roots. While it provides a delightful way to satisfy a sweet tooth, individuals seeking healthier alternatives can opt for sorbets, which omit the cream for a lighter option. Enjoyed as a summer indulgence or an elegant finish to a meal, glace au citron continues to charm palates worldwide.
