This was the precursor of today’s ice cream. In the 19th Century the ice produced on the island was not sufficient to meet demand so ice was imported from Barcelona. The first ice cream produced by Can Joan de s’Aigo as we know it today, was almond ice cream and to this day the mill used to grind the almonds for that first ice cream can be seen in our establishment in Can Sanç Street. A short time later Joan de s’Aigo began production of hot chocolate and “ensaimades”..
