An ice cream which changes colour as
it slowly melts has been invented by a physicist who became a professional
cook.
Manuel Linares took a course in ice cream making which
included encouraging students to make a new flavour.
37-year-old Spaniard studied physics
and engineering at university before deciding to become a cook, and has created
the new ice cream, called "Xamaleon", meaning "chameleon".
The ice cream supposedly turns from
blue to purple as it starts to melt. He is staying tight lipped over the secret
behind how the colour change works in his recipe.
The ice cream he created, which he
says tastes like tutti-frutti, includes strawberries, cocoa, almonds, banana,
pistachio, vanilla and caramel, and is so popular that business at his ice
cream parlour in the town of Calella de Mar, in the east Spanish province of
Barcelona, is booming.
