Why Is Pistachio Ice Cream So Expensive?

Pistachio ice cream is often sold as a premium flavor or not offered at all due to its high cost. Good pistachio ice cream is made with 100% pistachio paste, which is very expensive to purchase. The production of pistachio paste involves a labor-intensive process including harvesting the nuts, shelling, rolling for uniform roasting, roasting to enhance flavor, cooling to preserve taste, and grinding into paste. This complexity contributes to the high price of pistachio ice cream.
