Festival de Helados Returns with New Flavors June 24 – July 19

Hackensack, NJ, June 19, 2009 – Beat the heat with chilly treats this summer as Rosa Mexicano’s Festival de Helados returns June 24 through July 19, with a cooking demonstration and luncheon, free for adults who bring a pint-sized patron, on July 11. Rosa Mexicano Riverside Square will feature festive flavors like Comote y Pasas en Ron (sweet potato and rum raisin) and Aguacate (salted avocado and butter) and ice cream desserts such as the Guacamole de Postre, dessert guacamole prepared tableside to order with sweet fixins served with chocolate-dusted sweet tortilla chips and sweet tomatillo sauce.

On July 11, executive chef Joseph Preziosi shares the scoop about the tradition of Mexican-style ice cream and how to make flavors at home reminiscent of the carts found on the streets of Mexico in the summertime. Guests will learn how to create and then savor festival favorites such as Camino Rocoso, a Mexican twist on Rocky Road with white coffee ice cream, Mexican chocolate chips, chocolate marshmallow swirl and toasted almonds. The Festival de Helados is a part of Rosa Mexicano’s year-long Flavors of Mexico series, celebrating the diverse flavors of Mexican cuisine for 25 years.
