We received a box of gelato (Gelato Festival) in the mail as a gift from Uncle Alan and the kids could not wait to taste them all. This was such a fun experience for all 4 of us. We took turns reading about each flavor and tasting each one. Tyler would smell each one too. There were a few funny comments throughout:
“This one tastes like mushroom soup.”
“This one tastes like lotion.”
“This one tastes like sunscreen.”

Here’s our favorites:
Nat: #1 – Figs Pecan and Chocolate – Variegated fior di latte with carmelized figs, pecans, and dark chocolate
Tyler: #12 – Blueberry basil – Organic blueberries, fresh basil leaves, and a squeeze of lemon
David: #7 – Mimosa Siciliana – Blood orange and almond sorbet
Me: #2 – Fior di Mandorla – Almond gelato and lemon zest

Least favorites:
Nat & David: #4 – Hazelnut Truffle Stracciatella – An elegant combination of hazelnut, truffle, and acacia honey. (This was the one that tasted like mushroom soup.)
Me & Tyler: #3 Dama Pistachio – Pistachio, orange blossom, rose water. (This was the one that tasted like lotion.)

Thank you Uncle Alan and family for such a fun treat!
