冰激凌中的美味故事

Salt & Straw是金和泰勒这对堂姐弟共同创立的。为了创立Salt & Straw,金取出了她的积蓄,泰勒测试了无数种冰激凌口味,最终他们成功了。

1 “We admire the word ‘wonder’,” said Tyler Malek, the co founder (共同创立者) of Salt & Straw. Based in Portland, Oregon, the ice cream company started in 2011 with a food cart (手推车).

2 More than a decade ago, Tyler s cousin, Kim Malek, had the idea of bringing local artisans together and helping create a sense of community. The cousins decided that they could do this by making ice cream. But neither one had ever made ice cream before.“It was difficult to dive into a new career,” Tyler said.

3 I asked a chef how he was able to turn his love of ice cream and his love of books into a recipe for success. “Reading was my favorite in high school. It still is today,” he said. He picked up his first cookbook as a teenager. “I realized then that stories of delicious food are so interesting,” he said.

4 Salt & Straw now has ice cream shops in several cities in the United States, including Los Angeles, California, and Miami, Florida. It now offers handmade ice cream in several inventive flavors. The company also sells cookbooks, candles, hats, and other goods. Meanwhile, it offers home delivery (递送).

5 To get the business started, Kim cashed in her savings and bought a food cart. Tyler spent $16 on four used ice cream makers. He tested countless (无数的) flavors. The duo (二人组) looked to Portland based chefs, chocolate makers, and farmers for inspiration and ideas. “It s important to never copy from others,” Tyler said.
