Ice cream shop Knivesin Pisa (Tuscany)
“In my opinion, if Say Knives it’s not the best ice cream shop in Italy, it’s definitely in the top 3. They are very creative and original. The ice cream shop is in Pisa, but in a not very touristy area, on the banks of the Arno. And the ice cream chef, Gianfrancesco Cutelli, is part of the ice cream nobility: he is a descendant of one of the inventors of Italian ice cream, Francesco Procópio de Coltelli. He’s a bit of a mad genius, but it’s always amazing stuff.”

Tonka ice cream shopin Aprilia (Lazio)
“The ice cream shop Tonka It’s relatively new, about 15 years old, the others I list here are all centenarians. It was opened by a super young couple who also arrived with a proposal very focused on local and organic ingredients, valorising small producers. They are very strict in the choice of inputs and have already achieved a prominent position, even winning important awards in Italy. Aprilia is an hour south of Rome.”

Passera ice cream shopin Florence (Tuscany)
“It is certainly one of the best ice cream shops in Italy and, of this selection, it is perhaps the only one managed by a woman, Cinzia Otre. She makes many flavors with infusions, such as flowers and spices, which is something very different in Italy. they are several distinctive flavors that are worth it. Passera ice cream shop It is very small and is located in front of Piazza della Passera, 5 minutes from Ponte Vecchio, on the right bank of the Arno. And although it’s in a busy area, it tends to be more popular with locals than tourists.”

Golosi di Natura ice cream shop, in Gazzo Padovano (Veneto)
«It is an ice cream shop that is very popular with the general public because it has traditional flavours. But on the other hand, the chef in charge, Antonio Mezzalira, has already won as the best savory ice cream maker in Italy. It makes, for example, alcoholic ice cream-inspired drinks. The Gelateria Golosi di Natura has everything to satisfy both those who simply want a good ice cream and those looking for a unique gastronomic experience. Gazzo Padovano is halfway between Venice and Verona.”
