Turkish ice cream vendor performs tricks in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on July 16, 2023. Turkish ice cream vendors perform tricks as part of their tradition and culture. This type of ice cream, called dondurma, has a unique texture that allows it to be stretched and pulled without melting quickly. Vendors use this property to perform tricks such as teasing customers by pretending to drop the ice cream or pulling it away from them by using a metal rod before finally handing it over. These tricks are not only entertaining for customers but also serve as a way for vendors to showcase their skills and attract more business.
