About Us

Hello there! If you've found your way to these lines, you must be curious about the person behind your gelato. Well, that's me!

I'm Nico, an aeronautical engineer living in Derby since 2014. As you might have guessed, I'm from Italy - a nation known for its passionate love affair with gelato.

I grew up in Bergamo, a charming ancient town among the Alps of northern Italy. Icy winters with snow-capped peaks, hot summers and incredible food.

My childhood memories are filled with the warmth of my mother's small pasta shop, doing my homework with the subtle sound of Bolognese cooking on the stove. And then, in summertime, the carefree evenings in the garden with my unmissable gelato cone.

Fast forward to today, here I am in Derby with my family.  We traded snowy peaks for rolling hills, but our love for authentic Italian flavours stayed with us.

I soon started crafting our own gelato, inspired by the feeling of those summer memories. After ten years of experiments, we have now opened our doors and offer our gelato to the neighbourhood. The rest, is a story yet to be written – together. Come join us on this flavourful journey to Italy!
