This story belongs to Cadia

0:00:190:00:21

and her Great-Uncle Nino.

0:00:210:00:23

It's a tiny tale about Uncle Nino's life

0:00:270:00:30

and the things he used to do when he was young

0:00:300:00:33

and what life was like growing up in the family ice cream business.

0:00:330:00:38

Now it's time for Uncle Nino to share his memories

0:00:380:00:41

and take Cadia on a journey of discovery.

0:00:410:00:44

Cadia and her Uncle Nino live by the sea in Northern Ireland.

0:00:500:00:54

Cadia loves to play shops.

0:01:010:01:04

Uncle Nino, do you want to play shops with me?

0:01:080:01:11

Yes, I'll play shops with you.

0:01:110:01:13

-Am I buying or selling?

-Buying. I'm the shopkeeper.

0:01:130:01:16

-What are you selling?

-Lots of different stuff.

0:01:200:01:23

You're not selling ice cream like the rest of our family?

0:01:230:01:26

For over 100 years, Uncle Nino's family have been making ice cream.

0:01:260:01:32

That's a long time!

0:01:320:01:34

I'll show you something. You see this dish? Your great-grandfather

0:01:340:01:38

used to use this when he had his ice cream shop.

0:01:380:01:41

It's very pretty.

0:01:410:01:43

And that special family dish

0:01:430:01:45

has been used to eat all different sorts of flavours.

0:01:450:01:48

Yummy!

0:01:480:01:51

And they talk some more about long ago.

0:01:520:01:55

Let's find out more.

0:01:550:01:58

Uncle Nino's family came from Italy,

0:02:030:02:06

but moved to Northern Ireland where he was born.

0:02:060:02:09

My mother and father were born in Italy.

0:02:090:02:12

He married my mother and they both came over

0:02:120:02:14

and settled in Portstewart.

0:02:140:02:17

They bought this cafe from a great uncle called the Cafe Lido.

0:02:170:02:22

We had a hundred years of making ice cream.

0:02:220:02:25

Their ice cream is so tasty that it's won lots of special awards.

0:02:310:02:35

When Uncle Nino was a boy,

0:02:410:02:42

he went with his little brother Corado to Italy

0:02:420:02:45

to live with their grandmother

0:02:450:02:47

so they could learn to speak Italian.

0:02:470:02:49

Then they came home to work in the family's ice cream shop.

0:02:490:02:52

And here's Uncle Nino when he opened his very own ice cream shop.

0:02:520:02:56

Doesn't he look happy?

0:02:560:02:58

Cadia has lots to learn from her Uncle Nino

0:03:030:03:06

about making the family ice cream.

0:03:060:03:09

Uncle Nino's going to make some homemade ice cream.

0:03:140:03:17

-Would you like to help me?

-Yes, please.

0:03:170:03:19

-The first ingredient we're putting in here is milk. OK?

-Uh-huh.

0:03:190:03:26

-Keep going.

-Cadia is learning how to make the family ice cream recipe.

0:03:260:03:31

Good.

0:03:310:03:32

There are lots of different ingredients in their recipe,

0:03:320:03:36

including eggs, milk and sugar.

0:03:360:03:39

It's going to take about six hours to cool down.

0:03:410:03:44

We've time to go and play golf. Would you like to do that?

0:03:440:03:47

Yes, please.

0:03:470:03:48

Ice cream takes a long time to get really cold,

0:03:520:03:55

so Uncle Nino and Cadia have plenty of time to play golf.

0:03:550:03:59

Cadia is getting top tips from her Uncle Nino.

0:04:040:04:07

You've played a very good shot!

0:04:090:04:12

Good effort, Cadia. But watch this.

0:04:150:04:18

Now it's Uncle Nino's turn.

0:04:210:04:23

OK. That's a bit wide.

0:04:230:04:26

Hang on a minute!

0:04:260:04:28

Unbelievable! Uncle Nino gets a hole-in-one!

0:04:280:04:33

Now, back to their homemade ice cream.

0:04:370:04:40

Uncle Nino is using a special machine to help mix it.

0:04:470:04:51

It looks lovely. It's ready.

0:04:510:04:54

-It does.

-Are you looking forward to it?

0:04:540:04:57

Yes.

0:04:570:04:58

It's a bit soft but it'll be still nice anyway.

0:04:580:05:01

-Are you ready to taste this?

-Yes, please.

0:05:010:05:05

-All right, there you are.

-Thank you.

0:05:050:05:08

Tell me what you think?

0:05:080:05:10

It's good!

0:05:100:05:11

-You like it?

-Yeah.

-Good.

0:05:110:05:14

Cadia's not the only one who loves ice cream.

0:05:200:05:23

Ice cream has been a tasty treat for a very long time.

0:05:360:05:39

And not just on holiday.

0:05:390:05:42

Any time of year is good for ice cream.

0:05:420:05:45

We can't get enough of it.

0:05:450:05:47

Uncle Nino is taking Cadia to visit the family's ice cream factory.

0:05:570:06:02

Here they make lots of ice cream to sell in their shops.

0:06:080:06:12

And Uncle Nino has a special family test in store for Cadia.

0:06:120:06:15

When my parents used to make ice cream many years ago,

0:06:150:06:19

they only made one flavour and that was vanilla.

0:06:190:06:23

We have the same recipe after all these years,

0:06:230:06:26

but we have 40 other flavours.

0:06:260:06:29

There are so many to choose from. Just look at those!

0:06:290:06:34

And don't forget the chocolate sauce!

0:06:340:06:37

And, of course, good old vanilla.

0:06:390:06:43

I have three mystery flavours...

0:06:430:06:45

and I want you to tell me what they are.

0:06:450:06:48

-This is the first one.

-DRUM ROLL

0:06:480:06:51

You can do it, Cadia.

0:06:510:06:53

-Strawberry?

-Very good!

0:06:530:06:56

Good answer, Cadia!

0:06:560:06:58

-Now, Cadia, taste the second one.

-DRUM ROLL

0:06:580:07:02

-Banana?

-That's very good.

-Wahey!

-My favourite.

0:07:020:07:06

This is a very strange one here.

0:07:070:07:10

-Smell that one.

-DRUM ROLL

0:07:100:07:13

-Bubblegum?

-Bubblegum! That's excellent!

0:07:130:07:17

-Three out of three!

-Thank you.

0:07:170:07:20

Tell me now, what's your favourite flavour?

0:07:200:07:22

-Chocolate!

-Of course.

0:07:220:07:24

Top marks for Cadia!

0:07:290:07:31

Now she's ready to make some family ice cream.

0:07:310:07:35

But what flavour will she choose?

0:07:350:07:37

Lots of people in Cadia's family make ice cream,

0:07:410:07:43

including her Uncle Naldo.

0:07:430:07:46

They use the same family recipe from years gone by,

0:07:500:07:54

but big machines do all the work now like stirring, heating and cooling.

0:07:540:08:01

And then the ice cream comes flowing out of the pipe

0:08:010:08:04

into the containers ready to be eaten.

0:08:040:08:07

Doesn't that look good?

0:08:070:08:09

This is the machine where we freeze the finished ice cream.

0:08:090:08:12

And today, Cadia, we are going to make your own special flavour.

0:08:120:08:15

-What's your favourite?

-Chocolate!

-Hey!

0:08:150:08:18

First, Cadia carries out a taste test.

0:08:180:08:21

Will it be chocolate curls?

0:08:210:08:23

-What do you think of that?

-Good.

0:08:230:08:25

Or chocolate beans?

0:08:250:08:27

Will we add those into your ice cream?

0:08:300:08:32

-Yes, please.

-Of course, she wants both.

0:08:320:08:34

And in goes the ice cream mixture.

0:08:340:08:37

Now it's time for the machine to do its work.

0:08:420:08:47

And some chocolate curls.

0:08:470:08:48

And there's only one thing left to do, Cadia.

0:08:500:08:53

Press go.

0:08:530:08:55

MACHINERY CHURNS

0:08:550:08:57

Here it is, Cadia's very own chocolate ice cream.

0:08:590:09:03

That looks delicious!

0:09:050:09:08

-Would you like to try the ice cream?

-Yes, please.

0:09:080:09:12

And what do you think?

0:09:170:09:18

Really good.

0:09:180:09:19

So Cadia has now designed her own ice cream,

0:09:240:09:27

but what should she do with it?

0:09:270:09:29

Here's an idea.

0:09:360:09:38

Cadia, how would you like to design your own ice cream sundae

0:09:400:09:44

so that we can sell it in the shop?

0:09:440:09:47

-What do you think, Uncle Nino?

-Yes, please.

0:09:470:09:50

What about using the flavour

0:09:500:09:52

that you made in the factory this morning?

0:09:520:09:55

And we'll put it in my dad's old silver dish.

0:09:550:09:58

That's a great idea!

0:09:580:10:00

This is the very special silver ice cream dish

0:10:000:10:03

that's been used by Cadia's family for years and years!

0:10:030:10:06

I'm going to put this piece of chocolate in.

0:10:060:10:09

Good. Good girl. What else do you want to put in it?

0:10:090:10:14

I'm going to put more chocolate beans in.

0:10:140:10:17

Cadia can't get enough of them!

0:10:170:10:20

-That's lovely.

-Thank you.

0:10:210:10:23

And tell me, what else would you like to put in it?

0:10:230:10:26

-Can I have some chocolate sauce, please?

-Of course you can. Lovely!

0:10:330:10:38

Ah! Yum, yummy!

0:10:380:10:42

I'm going to put this decoration in.

0:10:450:10:48

Good.

0:10:480:10:51

That'll be the finishing touch.

0:10:510:10:54

And now I'm going to put a spoon in to eat it.

0:10:540:10:57

-And you're going to taste it?

-I'm going to taste it.

0:10:570:11:00

I'll do the same.

0:11:000:11:02

Oh!

0:11:020:11:03

Yummy, yum!

0:11:080:11:10

What an amazing ice cream sundae.

0:11:160:11:18

And now, Uncle Nino is going to let Cadia help him in the ice cream shop.

0:11:180:11:24

-Hello.

-Hello.

-Could I have one scoop, please?

0:11:270:11:32

-Yes.

-Of...Cadia's Surprise.

0:11:320:11:35

Of course.

0:11:350:11:36

Cadia is scooping the ice cream she made at the factory.

0:11:420:11:45

And scooping can be a tricky business.

0:11:450:11:47

-There you go.

-Thank you. How much is that, please?

0:11:500:11:52

-80p, please.

-There you are. Thank you very much. Bye-bye.

0:11:520:11:55

Bye-bye.

0:11:550:11:56

-Well done. Now you can run a business.

-Yay!

0:12:020:12:06

Great job selling your own ice cream, Cadia.

0:12:100:12:13

And Uncle Nino is very impressed too.

0:12:130:12:16

Thank you, Uncle Nino, for letting me work in a real ice cream shop.

0:12:210:12:25

-Oh, I enjoyed it. Did you?

-Yes.

0:12:250:12:30

Cadia found out so much from her Uncle Nino.

0:12:300:12:34

She not only made ice cream at home, she designed her own flavour.

0:12:340:12:39

It's good!

0:12:390:12:41

She got to see how ice cream is made in a big factory,

0:12:410:12:46

designed her own ice cream sundae

0:12:460:12:49

and even got to sell it in a real cafe.

0:12:490:12:53

Thank you for designing a new flavour and making a sundae.

0:12:550:12:59

Maybe later on when you grow up,

0:12:590:13:00

you'll come and work in one of our family shops.

0:13:000:13:03

-I would love that.

-So would I.

0:13:030:13:06

What a fabulous heap of fun!

0:13:170:13:20

That was Cadia and her Uncle Nino's

0:13:200:13:23

tiny tale about the things Uncle Nino used to do when he was young

0:13:230:13:27

and why he has an old silver ice cream dish.

0:13:270:13:31

Now that Uncle Nino has shared his story with Cadia,

0:13:310:13:35

it's time for Cadia to start her own story.

0:13:350:13:38

Do you know someone who has a story to share?
