Maraş Ice Cream Story

Maraş ice cream is a traditional dessert that has been appreciated for centuries with its historical origins dating back to the Ottoman period and its unique flavor made from goat’s milk fed with natural plants.

The origin of Maraş ice cream dates back to the Ottoman period is based on a historical story. According to the story, a shopkeeper named Osman Aga from Maraşlı used to sell salep made from wild orchid roots in the Ottoman palace. One day, he mixed the leftover salep with milk and sugar and buried it in the snow. The next day, when he checked the mixture, he realized that the salep and milk had thickened in the cold air to the consistency of chewing gum. Osman Aga let the people around him taste this newfound flavor and received great acclaim. Initially known as “karsambaç with salep”, this flavor was developed over time and named “Maraş ice cream”. One of the most important features of Maraş ice cream is that it is made from the milk of goats that are fed with natural plants such as thyme, crocus, crocus, keven and hyacinth in the mountains of Maraş. This natural nutrition gives the ice cream its unique flavor and durability. Today, Maraş ice cream is known as a traditional dessert consumed with great pleasure all over Turkey. Recognized both locally and internationally, this unique taste is a delicious legacy of a centuries-old tradition. We are proud to offer you this heritage under the Marpare Ice Cream Brand.
