Today, August 21, 2013, is National Spumoni Day. Spumoni is a molded Italian ice cream made with layers of different colors and flavors, usually containing candied fruits and nuts. Typically it is of three flavors, with a fruit/nut layer between them.
My all-time favorite, but hard to come by. I remember back in NY whenever we'd hit an Italian restaurant the big choice of the evening for me was tortoni or spumoni. Spumoni almost always won out.
