snowflake gelato

10 May 2014

I've mentioned more than a few times now, that I can never say no to ice cream. It's the one thing, above chocolate or cake or cookies or anything else, that wins over this not-so-sweet-tooth of mine.

I had walked past Snowflake Gelato in a couple of different locations before, but finally it was perfect timing and I got to see what the fuss was about.






I honestly get giddy when I see all the pretty colours of the gelato lined up like this! My ultimate dream house would definitely have a gelato parlour.

Anyway, after much hmming and ahhing, I ended up choosing Pistachio & White chocolate, and Mint choc chip.





Truly decadent and delicious. I would say that the mint didn't pack quite the same punch as Gelupo, but it was still amazing and the pistachio rocked my socks.

Somewhere I can see myself frequenting in the (hopefully) warmer months to come... do any of you Londoners have a favourite ice cream place in the city?

And non-Londoners, what's your favourite ice cream flavour? I recently tried Ben & Jerry's Peanut Butter Cup, and I think I died and went to heaven.

Gelupo

28 September 2013

After our Yauatcha lunch, we walked around the shops and gave ourselves a bit of a break before choosing a spot for dessert. Through some excellent reviews online, we found Gelupo.





I go crazy for ice cream any day or night, so when we discovered this tiny little gelateria, I just knew we were in for a treat. Especially when I heard all the servers speaking beautiful Italian.






I chose the Fresh mint Stracciatella & Salted burnt sugar, and E went for Boneta, Ricotta and sour cherry & Salted burnt sugar.





Oh it was good. The fresh mint just burst with such a true mint taste, all the flavours were of perfect consistency & not too sweet, which I think is brilliant. It was a genuine and delicious taste of Italy, enjoyed on a cloudy Sunday in London.

It's tucked away on a little street in Soho, please promise me you'll look out for it.
