Its signature stretch comes from salep, a thickening ingredient traditionally used in Maraş ice cream, along with intensive kneading. Together they create a dense, chewy texture that is quite different from the soft, airy texture of many standard ice creams.
It refers to the milk proportion indicated in the product name, not to milk fat or protein content. The remaining ingredients make up the rest of the formulation, so the percentage alone does not tell you how sweet or rich the ice cream tastes.
Traditional Maraş ice cream is often associated with goat milk, but not every commercial version uses it. For this particular product, the ingredients list is the reliable way to find out which kind of milk it contains.
Traditional Maraş ice cream commonly uses salep to help give it its thick, elastic texture. Recipes can differ between products, though, so check the ingredient information if you need to know whether this particular version contains salep.
Maraş ice cream is traditionally made by heating milk with sugar and salep, then cooling and working the mixture until it becomes dense and elastic. The characteristic texture comes from both the ingredients and the repeated kneading.
Its dense, chewy consistency can make it difficult to scoop like ordinary ice cream. Some shops slice or cut Maraş ice cream and serve it with a knife and fork, although a spoon is also used when it is soft enough.
It can hold its shape differently because its dense, elastic texture is unlike that of airy ice cream. It still melts when warm, so serve it promptly rather than relying on its stretchiness to keep it frozen.
Serve it frozen but allow it to soften briefly if it is too firm to cut or scoop. A little softening makes its chewy texture easier to enjoy; avoid leaving it out until it becomes runny.
Keep it covered in the freezer and return it there promptly after serving. Repeated melting and refreezing can make the texture icy and less elastic, so follow any storage instructions printed on the package.
Yes, you can make a home-style version with milk, sugar and salep, then knead the chilled mixture to develop elasticity. Matching the traditional dense texture takes sustained working, so a home batch may not stretch as much as shop-made Maraş ice cream.

Maraş Ice Cream, 81% Milk is a rich, stretchy ice cream associated with Kahramanmaraş in southern Turkey. It is made with milk, sugar and salep, the ground orchid tuber that gives traditional Maraş ice cream its distinctive elastic texture. The name indicates its high milk content.
In Turkey it is enjoyed in a cone or bowl, and the dense ice cream may also be cut into slices and served with a knife and fork. Its milky sweetness makes it a filling dessert rather than a light, airy scoop; it provides 220 calories per 100 g. A modest serving pairs well with fresh fruit or a cup of unsweetened tea if you want to balance its sweetness.
