Çeşme ice cream is a traditional Turkish milk-based ice cream flavored with mastic resin. It is associated with Çeşme, a town in İzmir province, and is known for its distinctive aromatic flavor.
Çeşme ice cream tastes creamy and milky, with a fresh, gently resinous aroma from mastic. The flavor is distinctive but should complement the milk rather than taste like chewing gum.
Mastic is an aromatic resin from the mastic tree, used as a flavoring in Çeşme ice cream. It gives the dessert its characteristic fragrance; it is not the same thing as ordinary chewing gum.
Çeşme ice cream is a regional style of Turkish dondurma, not a separate category of frozen dessert. Its defining feature is mastic flavor, while the name dondurma covers many Turkish ice creams with different ingredients and textures.
Çeşme ice cream is made by flavoring a milk-based ice cream mixture with mastic and freezing it. Recipes vary, but mastic is commonly crushed or dissolved into the mixture so its aroma spreads evenly.
Çeşme ice cream comes from Çeşme in İzmir province, on Turkey’s Aegean coast. The regional style is closely associated with the area’s use of mastic as a distinctive flavor in sweets.
Not necessarily. Mastic gives Çeşme ice cream its aroma, but it does not by itself guarantee a stretchy texture. The pronounced elasticity associated with Maraş ice cream comes from its ingredients and preparation method.
Salep is not what defines Çeşme ice cream; mastic is its signature flavor. Some recipes may include salep for texture, while others do not, so ingredients can vary between makers.
Çeşme ice cream is often served on its own in a cup or cone so its mastic aroma stands out. Fresh fruit or a simple biscuit can accompany it, but strongly flavored toppings may mask its distinctive taste.
Keep opened Çeşme ice cream tightly covered in the freezer, away from the door where temperatures fluctuate more. Return it to the freezer promptly after serving to limit melting and ice crystals.

Çeşme ice cream is a traditional milk-based ice cream from Çeşme, a coastal town in İzmir province, Turkey. Mastic resin gives it a distinctive, gently pine-like aroma; the texture is often rich and may have a slight stretch.
In Turkey it is enjoyed in a cone or bowl, especially in warm weather, and is also served as a dessert after a meal. A small cup of Turkish coffee makes a natural accompaniment. It provides energy from its sugar and dairy fat, along with some protein, but no fibre; at 210 calories per 100 g, portion size is worth keeping in mind if you want a lighter dessert.
