Gelateria Naia is proud to be supporting local Bay Area native Pim Techamuanvivit from food blog Chez Pim as she joins together the food blogosphere to support the World Food Programme with Menu for Hope.

We are giving away our very popular Dream Flavor. The winner will come up with their dream flavor and together we will create a great recipe, and Gelateria Naia will hand craft a batch of your Dream flavor just for you.

We have donated the Dream Flavor prize to several charities over the years and it has always proven to be very popular. Past Dream Flavor winners have requested a simple passion fruit sorbetto, a delicious Jim Beam bread pudding gelato, a chocolate dark & stormy gelato and our youngest winner created a lemon-banana with chocolate chip and cherries gelato (Hey, it’s Dream Flavor. That’s what she wanted.)

The Menu For Hope and the UN World Food Programme reminds us how fortunate we are. Here in the Bay Area we will send back our food if it is not perfect and demand that it be so. We will pick through a pile of fruit looking for just the right ripeness, discarding everything else. So please remember that others are going hungry and need our help.

If you are interested in helping out and having us make your dream flavor of gelato, here are the instructions:

1. Our dream gelato is prize code UW22. Visit the donation site at http://www.firstgiving.com/menuforhope4 and make a donation. Click “Give Now!”

2. Every $10 you donate purchases a ticket, which you specify in the ‘Personal Message’ section of the donation form. So if you donate $50, write 5xUW22. If you donate $30, write 3xUW22. Don’t forget to leave your email address so they can contact you if you win.

The results will be published at Chez Pim on Wednesday January 9th.
