Specialty Food Association

The Museum of Ice Cream in Austin, Texas, is featuring Houston-based Gallivant Mawa Ice Cream as part of its ‘Pinkmas’ holiday season event and celebration.

Throug January 9, 2022, visitors to the Museum of Ice Cream will be given a free scoop or two of Gallivant Mawa Ice Cream as a way to celebrate the holiday season and stay cool while enjoying the museum’s interactive exhibits that celebrate everything ice cream.

“The staff of the Museum of Ice Cream in Austin recently gave me a tour, and I love what they’re doing to celebrate ice cream” said Snehee Chaplot, founder and CEO of Gallivant Mawa Ice Cream, in a statement. “It’s a very cool space and a must-visit for everyone who likes ice cream.”

Victor Martino, director of sales and marketing for Gallivant Mawa Ice Cream, added, "The team members at the Museum of Ice Cream tasted Gallivant Mawa Ice Cream in early November and gave it a rave review, which led to their decision to choose our brand for their ‘Pinkmas’ event and celebration.”  

Gallivant Mawa Ice Cream differs from other frozen desserts as the ice cream is made with South Asian Mawa milk solids, which gives it a texture that’s creamier than gelato and a super-premium ice cream taste, according to the company. Chaplot’s world travels inspired the nine global flavors: Indian Mango, Thai Coconut, Vietnamese Coffee, African Chocolate, Guatemalan Cardamom, Persian Pistachio, Chinese Black Sesame, Japanese Matcha, and Madagascar Vanilla.
