Semifreddo (pronounced [semiˈfreddo], Italian: half cold) is a class of semi-frozen desserts, typically ice-cream cakes, semi-frozen custards, and certain fruit tarts. It has the texture of frozen mousse because it is usually produced by uniting two equal parts of ice cream and whipped cream. Such a dessert's Spanish counterpart is called semifrío.[1][2] In Italian cuisine, the semifreddo is commonly made with gelato as a primary ingredient.
