Vero Gelato Italiano
Samples: Vero Coco and Coffee, Almond Crunch, Avocado, Cashew Fruit, Pistachio di Bronte
Rum-Pineapple-Amaretto, Guava Cheese, Dulce de Leche
Italian owned at the heart of Ipanema, Vero Gelato Italiano utilizes only natural Ingredients to produce a vast array of Ice Creams and Sorbets with three flavors in a sizable cup costing less than $3USD.
Known as Brazil’s only Gelateria accredited by the Accademia della Gelateria Italiana, and also popular for Pizza and Coffee, it is immediately upon entry to Rua Visconde de Pirajá 229 that guests are greeted warmly, a variety of flavors spread across two cases from which sampling is encouraged.
Varying flavors daily, classics such as Pistachio and Coffee showing off smooth textures and a relatively small amount of Sugar, it was after tasting both Caju and Avocado that an over-filled cup was chosen, Dulce de Leche predictably a lot like Caramel while Rum-Pineapple-Amaretto improved upon America’s “Rum Raisin” with Almond Liqueur and went well bite-for-bite against Romeu e Julieta comprising Cream Cheese plus Guava.
