Everyone loves an ice cream whatever the weather. Do you have a favourite ice cream in the summer or the winter or a firm favourite that you always choose? This blog talks about the UK’s Top 10 Favourite Gelato Ice Cream Flavours.

Gelato is the Italian for Italian for ice cream. It starts with a custard base and has a higher proportion of milk to a lower proportion of cream and eggs. It is churned at a much slower rate incorporating less air, leaving the gelato ice cream thicker and denser than ordinary ice cream. Its thick, creamy consistency and multitude of flavours mean’s you can have it as a cone or as a desert, trying one flavour, two or even three……..Whatever the weather a Gelato Ice Cream is delicious all year round.

So here we go, here are our top 10 flavours:

1. Chocolate – A smooth and rich flavour, and good old chocolate makes you feel good whatever the weather. It often comes in various flavours and strengths, with extra dark chocolate, milk or Swiss chocolate as options. But it doesn’t matter, right? as all chocolate is good. Done right, and with good quality ingredients, this is one flavour that can stand on its own. It’s awesome with toppings but still great without. Many people say that Chocolate ice cream makes them happy, and who are we to argue.
2. Mint Choc Chip – A fresh minty taste with the chocolate chips hitting your taste buds giving you a creamy, minty, chocolate delight. Refreshing mint combined with Chocolate… How can you go wrong?
3. Vanilla – White, creamy, and the ultimate flavour of ice cream. Plain and simple and the basic flavour which you will always be in the mood for, just add strawberry or chocolate sauce and nutty toppings to zing it up a bit.
4. Strawberry – Simple and timeless sometimes coming with crushed strawberries for that different texture to liven the taste. It’s like eating fresh strawberries straight out of the fridge. Think of it as one of your 5 a day.
5. Cookies and Cream – So whats better than cookies and milk? ……cookies and cream ice cream. Vanilla ice cream and crushed cookies blended together to give the ultimate flavour that will satisfy your sweet craving whether you are watching a movie or having it as a dessert. What’s better than vanilla ice cream with chunks of chocolate chip cookies in? Delicious.
