It is a natural product that is prepared with selected peanuts and expertly refined by Torronalba’s experience, to obtain a velvety and smooth paste, ready to meet the needs of every gelato maker. Peanut butter is a very loved food in the United States with an excellent nutritional profile: low carbohydrates, lots of proteins and fibres, healthy fats. It is rich in oleic acid which is shown to help maintain good cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure. Managing these levels in your body can lower the risk of heart disease. Kids love peanut butter, and that’s a good thing since this healthy snack is packed with vitamin E, an antioxidant that protects nerve membranes. It also has thiamine, which is good for the brain, and glucose which gives energy. Peanut butter contains omega-6 and heart-healthy fats and is a good source of protein, which can be helpful for vegetarians looking to include more protein in their diets. Peanut Butter is also much loved by sports people who can now taste it in a delicious gelato version! A stars and stripes paste TORRONALBA 176
