Spaghetti-Es is a unique and playful German dessert that resembles a plate of spaghetti but is actually made entirely of ice cream.

Invented in 1969 by Dario Fontanella, a German-Italian ice cream maker, it has become a favorite treat in Germany and beyond. The dessert begins with vanilla ice cream pressed through a specialized tool, such as a potato, to create spaghetti-like strands.

The spaghetti is then topped with a sweet strawberry sauce, mimicking tomato sauce, and often sprinkled with white chocolate shavings or grated coconut to resemble parmesan cheese.

Some versions include a dollop of whipped cream at the base to add texture and volume. Spaghetti-Es delights both the eye and palate, offering a whimsical and delicious twist on traditional ice cream desserts.
