Gelateria K2 Di Santucci Giovanni

My Fail! I should have read Yelp's reviews before coming here and I have no internet access because my friend would not turn on his hotspot for me. I should have ask for my gelato in a cone! I want that beautiful flower presentation. I ended up having in a cup..... But the gelato was creamy and smooth. Flavour on point. Close to tourist area. Great to come by and treat yourself after a long day of walking. But don't make the same mistake as I made! Make sure you ask for the cone!

Items Tasted: Straciatella, Zabaglione, Pistachio on Chocolate Nut Waffle Cone Straciatella, Mint, Fior di Latte on Chocolate Nut Waffle Cone Not particularly hungry when exiting the Cathedrale di Parma, an old joke about Ice Cream fills in the cracks echoing somewhere in my brain, Gelateria K2 proved to be fortuitously located nearby on Strada Benedetto Cairoli, the artisan shop opened in 1954 embracing old-world methods of production with floral presentations provided atop house-made Cones . Small in size with each flavor made daily and served from metal containers at prices ranging €2,50-€4,50 depending on number of scoops, it was with two Chocolate-dipped cones tallying just €9 that the quickly melting bouquets were taken outside for enjoyment, the pale-green Pistachio creamy, dense and not overly sweetened while Zabaglione, Fresh Cream and Straciatella were equally well crafted, Mint not particularly appealing to me in this situation, but well received by those who tried it.

I remember stopping at this glacier in 2010 (photo Ice iPhone in archive in support! So I absolutely wanted to make a little pilgrimage to it in 2015, all the same! Five years later, the taste is always at the rendezvous and the horns always as beautifully presented. There's not a lot of perfumes, the shop is small and not young, but it's so good! As a bonus you can eat your ice by exiting directly on one of the most beautiful places in Parma! The stickers on the glacier door seem to attest to a safe value for years, it even seems to me to have seen a 1999 macaron (but I may have dreamed!
