Carte D'Or Kaimaki is a premium dessert offering a traditional Greek flavor profile. This specific variety, Kaimaki, is famous for its chewy texture and the distinct aroma of Chios mastic (mastic gum). The packaging shown is for the Greek market, where the brand has a significant presence and deep roots in the local culinary identity.

Originally established in France in 1978, Carte D'Or was designed as a high-quality brand specifically for restaurant chefs and pâtisseries before expanding into the retail consumer market. It has since become a global household name, synonymous with indulgent ice cream and dessert preparations.

While the brand was founded in France and is part of the extensive Unilever portfolio, manufacturing for the Greek market often takes place locally in Greece to ensure freshness and cater to regional tastes. As of 2024 and beyond, the brand is owned by Unilever, a British multinational consumer goods company, though Unilever announced plans in early 2024 to spin off its entire ice cream division into a standalone business by late 2025.
