Gelatissimo is the new Gelateria and Cafe located on the 2nd Floor of the posh Greenbelt 5. The brand originated in Australia and has grown to dominate the Australian market and has recently branched out to South East Asia and luckily for us Cebu and Manila!

Its difficult to resist entering Gelatissimo with its bright and attractive storefront. The staff were courteous and we were immediately invited to sample their top recommendations.

After the taste test, we unanimously decided on the Forest Berry Cheesecake and the Macadamia & Caramel.

Gelato is about indulgence and these two choices provided such a tantalizing bouquet of flavors on our palette, we simply could not resist.

Forrest Berry Cheesecake Macadamia & Caramel - PHP 160.00 NET ($US 4.00)

While both were simply exquisite, the Forest Berry Cheesecake was undeniably far superior to the Macadamia & Caramel. If you find a flavor that you like you could even take home a liter. Pricing may be found below:

The ambiance was cozy and quiet during the late weekday afternoon.

Aside from gelato, they also offer freshly roasted coffee, gelato shakes, bambino cones, cookies and much more.

If you are ever in Italy trying to find an authentic gelateria, here are some simple steps:

1) Look for the “fatta in casa” sign. This means that the gelato was made within the premises.

2) Gelato is best stored in metal containers, if plastic this is a sign of mass poduction.

3) Look for long lines of Italians, not tourists!
