I've never really eaten much gelato, in fact up until recently I thought gelato was primarily just sorbets. But I have since learnt that there is more to gelato then just sorbets. And for those who may ask the same question I asked, "What is the difference between ice cream and gelato?" Well, let me tell you! Gelato is lower in fat because it contains less cream and more milk and is churned slower resulting in less air and a richer flavour. So, with this discovery I decided to try 10 different flavours from Gelatissimo here in Mackay.
I do regret starting out with one of my favorite flavours Cookies & Cream, I originally rated it 8/10 to give myself room to rate some higher, however it set the bar too high and remained the best out of the 10, so I did revise my rating to a 9/10. Despite all flavours being pretty good, none could beat my favourite ice cream Cadbury's Crunchie, which is why I gave none a 10/10 rating. I love Cadbury's Crunchie ice cream so much that I'm pretty sure I've eaten the entire supply out of Mackay, as it's been absent from the shelves for weeks now ☹️
Here are the flavours I tried and my ratings:
Cookies & Cream 11/02/23 9/10 (This was as good as my go to brand Connoisseur)
Choc Honeycomb 19/02/23 5/10 (This was disappointing...I was hoping it was similar to my Crunchie ice cream but had hardly any Honeycomb taste to it at all, but I'm thinking I just got a bad batch that day, as I've since seen it on my other visits, and it looked much nicer).
Strawberry 18/03/23 6/10
American Jam Donut 08/04/23 6/10
Candy Wonderland 16/04/23 7/10 (This one was surprisingly good!)
Cookie Crumble with KitKat 30/04/23 7/10
Boysenberry Swirl 28/05/23 7/10
Wicked Double Choc Brownie 03/06/23 6/10 (I started enjoying this but was insanely rich and made me feel a bit ick towards the end - glad I only got a small!)
Choc Caramel Fudge made with Lindt 24/06/23 8/10
Green Apple 08/07/23 6/10
And here is a photo of Jill and I eating the smallest ice creams cones ever or are we giants? 😆
