Walter Lappert : ウィキペディア英語版 | Walter Lappert Walter Lappert, (22 March 1921 - 1 September 2003) at the age of 61, founded a business in Kauai to manufacture and sell "super-premium" ice cream based on family recipes from his European upbringing. He rode a wave of enthusiasm for gourmet luxury foods using fresh, high-quality local ingredients in Hawaii. Lappert's Aloha Ice Cream grew to have annual revenues exceeding $15 million in six U.S. states and produced 18,000 gallons of unique flavors of ice cream each month. Using Belgian chocolate, vanilla beans from Madagascar, local macadamia nuts, guava, and coffee beans from Kona, Lappert created a menu of 125 flavors. ==Life Before Ice Cream==
Lappert was born in Austria to a French father and an Austrian mother. He grew up in Prague, with Austrian grandparents who owned a shop "where they made apple strudels and sold coffee, and in summertime, when the fruit was ripe, they made peach or strawberry ice cream."〔 Later this shop would become the model for his retail outlets. Lappert joined the French Army at 17, earning the rank of lieutenant, and was wounded in combat during World War II.〔 He was fluent in eight languages. After the war, Lappert spent many years in South America where he was a distiller in Ecuador and became the purveyor of liquor to the Venezuelan military.〔 Moving to the United States, he had a crepe shop in San Francisco and seafood restaurant in Sausalito, California.
