Overview
One of Melbourne's favourite ice cream establishments, Pidapipo, has launched a range of signature, limited-edition flavours. The sweet new scoops will only be available in June, so don't wait to try them.
Pidapipo is loved for its perfectly creamy Italian gelato, churned fresh daily in-store, and for its blend of tradition and innovation in its flavours. House favourites include Nutella swirl, hazelnut, salted caramel, vegan dark chocolate, and vanilla and honeycomb.
This month, the special flavours reflect the cosy comforts of winter. Think jams and marmalades, brownies and fudge. There are seven new flavours to try, so it may require a couple of visits to get through them all (no complaints here).
If you prefer things light and tart, try the marscapone with quince marmalade, or the green apple juice sorbetto. If you need a chocolate hit, go for the Fior di Latte with choc cookie and choc fudge, the coffee chocolate brownie or the coconut choc chip with sour cherry. There's also a nutty banana, peanut butter ganache and malt crumble creation, and a take on a favourite winter dessert - rhubarb cream with oat crumble and rhubarb jam.
While you're at it, check out Pidapipo's beloved winter special: hot chocolate. For first-timers, expect a cup of pure indulgence, with rich, silky hot chocolate crafted from 70% dark chocolate, offering soothing warmth in every sip. Topped with a generous scoop of Pidapipo's signature house-churned fior di latte gelato folded with marshmallows, the hot chocolate is crowned with caramelised hazelnut croccante — ensuring an ideal sweet-crunch finish.
